About Ocarina of Time


Zelda's Lullaby is a recurring melody from Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda series, widely recognized by fans of the franchise. On electric guitar, its gentle, flowing arpeggios and simple harmonic structure make it an accessible yet rewarding piece to learn. Its clean tone and melodic phrasing offer a good exercise in dynamics and note sustain for guitarists of most skill levels.

  • The melody's soft, arpeggiated feel suits a clean electric guitar tone with light reverb for an authentic sound.
  • The piece is a strong exercise in playing melodically rather than rhythmically, focusing on note clarity and phrasing.
  • The Legend of Zelda series, where this melody originates, debuted on Nintendo hardware and has remained iconic across multiple titles.

Key: E major · Tempo: 60 BPM

It is built from a handful of distinct sections, so learn each one in blocks before stringing them together. At 60 bpm the slow tempo leaves every note exposed, so timing, vibrato, and dynamics matter more than raw speed.

Loop each section and focus on clean, even timing rather than speed, with the metronome at 60 BPM.
