Battle theme in Final Fantasy 4 played when fighting the Four Fiends of the Elements... you know, Rubicant, Valvalis, etc. Just as the rest of the songs in the FF series, this piece was composed by Nobuo Uematsu, but the lead parts were arranged into guitar tablature form by me. Please note: there are some rather crazy syncopations and rhythm changes in this song that the rather primitive tab notation is not well equipped to explain... also, most of the fast runs (marked with a *) are played twice as fast as they appear in writing. If you really want to impress your friends, listen to the song a few times and get it right.
