    Default "The Rains Of Castamere" from Game Of Thrones

    This is my instrumental cover version of this song from the "Game Of Thrones" soundtrack, written by Ramin Djawadi.

    I am playing the tune on mandocello and mandolin, with tenor guitar accompaniment -- mandocello takes first verse with mandolin harmony, swapping over for the second verse. My starting point was this accordion transcription, which transfers pretty well to my complere different instrumentation:

    Vintage Viaten tenor guitar



    The slide show mixes GoT fanart with historic artwork on heraldry and medieval warfare.

    Awesome! Maybe eventually I'll finally be caught up on Game of Thrones. I have up to the third season on DVD, only finished the second though!
    Screw it. I'm a bard now.

    Thanks, Martin. The sheet music and chords were a big help, along with your great recording.
