Normal Tuning
I transposed the piano and violin for guitar (or bass), this
results in a lot of slides on the violin parts (listen to the song
to get 'em right).
There are also a LOT of repeats, which I didn't count, so I'll
just give the variations, which are played in the song.
Piano (starts after the low synth-FX)

Violin (Use a lot of sustain to make the
slides sound best)
Note: Play along with the song to get the rythm right;
the violin-rythm is not the same as the piano-rythm
on certain parts, which can be confusing.
