Randy Newman
Song For the Dead (1983)
(Randy Newman)

From: "Trouble in Paradise"

Not easy ...
This is as far as I could take it at the moment. There are certainly some 
debatable decisions here. But when I just sat down and played it, it still 
sounded quite alright.
Comments and suggestions for improvements are highly welcome!
