updated
Verse 1:
Em D G Am D x2
C D G C, C D Em
Verse 2 (same as above):
Em D G Am D x2
C D G C, C D Em
Bridge:
C D B Em, D G C x2
(leading into the chorus you can play Em D, transitioning quickly)
Chorus:
C D B Em x3
C D Em
Verse 2 (up one key):
Fm Eb Ab Bbm Eb x2
C# Eb Ab C#, C# Eb Fm
(leading into the chorus you can play Fm, Eb, transitioning quickly)
Chorus 2
C# Eb C Fm x3
C# Eb Fm
C# Eb Fm x3 (in the actual song here, it really only plays C# and there's no chord after that, but it doesn't translate well to piano with no lyrics)
C# Eb Fm
As always, chords below! Some of these chords are questionable, particular the first part.
Intro:
Ab Eb Fm
First part:
Fm Ab Eb C# x2 (optionally instead you can try Fm Ab Gm Cm)
Second part:

Third part:

Link's House - 0:00
Zelda's Lullaby - 0:37
Serenade of Water - 1:47

Gerudo Valley - 5:31
Chords (these aren't perfect, but I think they are pretty close):
Link's House:
C Bb Ab G - The original key for this is Bb, so that translates to Bb Ab F# F. I played it in C because I found it transitioned to the next song a bit better.

That's it, enjoy :). If you search ultimate-guitar's website, you can get these chords to match up to the words. I took those chords as a base, but I changed a few of them which I felt were off.
The original song can be found here:

I ended up finding other chords here later. Some of them are definitely better, particularly in the chorus, but a few of them sound off:

Here are the chords I came up with. They probably aren't perfect, but I think they are pretty close:
Intro
Eb/Ebsus4/Ebsus2

Instrumental 1:
B, Eb, B Eb, Eb, Ab B Bb
Verse 2

NC (no chord), Eb Ab, Ab Bb, Eb Ab, Eb Ab - This last part here doesn't have any lyrics too it.
Edit: Apparently I covered this once already and forgot! I guess this is version #2 :).
Intro:
C Am C Am
Verse:
C Am C Am, F G C G
C (F G) Am F G E Am
G E Am
Chorus:
F Am F
C G C G
Beyond this it just repeats verse + chorus 3 more times, and then it repeats the chorus several times before fading out.
Hmmm...apparently my fly is down. Intentional of course! Air flow and all...
Update: I think the chords for the first bridge are off a bit. I've updated them to what I think it should be, but keep in mind I play the old chords in this video.
Intro:

Verse:
Fm C# Eb C#, Fm C# Eb Bb

For the last part of the song played the chorus again and improvised a bit more.
The chords are mostly B D A E. Each "x" represent one chord rotation.
Intro:
B D A E x2
Verse:
B D A E x2
Pre Chorus:
G A G A
Chorus:
B D A E x2
Instrumental
B D A E

More Instrumental (While they sing "let me go")
B D A E x2
Pre Chorus:
G A G A (this last A is held a bit longer)
Chorus:
B D A E x2
Instrumental (while they sing ohhh, ohhh, ohhhh)
B D A E x2
Instrumental again
B - Hold on this note for a bit, and then precede to play B D A E for the rest of the song.
For the rest it's just B D A E until the end. I just improvised that part.
Chords: C#, E, B, A
Each "x" represents one chord rotation
Verse x2 + Ax1 (this is an extra A chord at the end)
Instrumental x2
Pre-Chorus x2
Chorus x2 + Ax2
Verse x4 + Ax1
Instrumental x2
Pre-Chorus x2

That's a bit messy, but hopefully it makes sense.

The chords are bit more complex than most songs. These might not be 100% accurate, but I think they are pretty close.
Intro:
Fm Eb C#, Fm Eb C#
Verse
Fm Eb C#, Fm Eb C
Pre Chorus:
(Fm C# Eb Fm) C# (Eb) Fm
Chorus:
(F# Ab) C#, (F# Ab) Bbm, (F# Ab C#) B Bb, (Ebm C#) B Bb, Ebm Eb (the last chord sort of transitions into Eb)
Intro 2:
Fm Eb C#
Verse x1
Pre Chorus x1
Chorus x1
Bridge/Instrumental:
Bm G Em F#dim4 F#, F#m C# F# Eb, Fm F
2nd Chorus (first half is the same as the first chorus):
(F# Ab) C#, (F# Ab) Bbm, (F# Ab C#) B, Ab Bbm F# Ab Bbm, F# Ab Bbm
Chords: Em C G D - This repeats throughout the entire song. I've laid out the structure of song - each "x1" represents one chord rotation. Note that in my recording I didn't follow this structure exactly. I shortened the intro & first instrumental and improvised during the last instrumental section.
Intro - x16
Verse Part1 - x8
Verse Part2 - x8
Chorus - x8
Instrumental - x8
Verse Part1 - x8
Verse Part2 - x8
Chorus - x8
Instrumental - x34
Below I've included the chords (it's the same 4 chords throughout) and the layout of the song. My cover doesn't follow the exact layout though - I just messed around with it. It's mostly improvised.
Chords: Bm G D A
Structure of song:
Intro x2
Verse x8
Chorus x8
Instrumental x12
Verse x8
Chorus x4
Bridge/Alternate Chorus x4
Instrumental x12
Each "x" is basically one bar, or one chord rotation.
See chords below:
Verse:
C Dm Em F x2
C Am Dm G (switches quickly)
Bridge:
Am F C G x2
C
2nd Verse:
C Dm Em F x2
C Am Dm G x4 (switches quickly)
Chorus:
C Dm Em F x2
C Dm Em F x4
Then I switch up a key to D major for the chorus:
D Em F#m G x2
And then I switch up a key once more to E major:
E F#m Abm A x2
I repeat the chorus in E major once more for fun.
These are the chords I came up with. It's almost entirely Ab Fm Eb.
Intro:
Ab Fm Eb x8
Verse:
Ab Fm Eb x2
Chorus:
Ab Fm Eb
Instrumental:
Ab Fm Eb
Verse x1
2nd Chorus:
Ab Fm Eb Ab
Bridge:
Bbm Ab Eb Ab, Bbm Ab Eb Eb
2nd Instrumental
Ab Fm Eb x2
Drum solo (I played Ab here, but there's really no chord at all)
Verse x1
Chorus x4
End of Ab
Chords in brackets played faster. I think the "D" in the chorus is not really needed, but I think it sounds a bit nicer.
Verse:
G D Am7 C x2
Pre Chorus:
D C D C
Chorus:
G D Am7 (C D) x2
La di da:
G D Am7 C
Verse x1
Chorus x1
Bridge:
D C D C D C G
Chorus x 1
Instrumental:
G D Am7 (C D)
La di da x1
End on G
I improvised with the melody in some areas. I came up with the chords myself, so my apologies if they are off (see below).
Intro
Gm
Verse
G G F, G G F
Pre Chorus
G F G F, G F G F, F (leads into chorus)
Chorus
Gm F Eb F, Gm F Eb F
Verse
Pre Chorus
Chorus x 2
Bridge (same chords as chorus)
Gm F Eb F x4
Chorus x 2
That's all :)
Here are the chords I came up with:
Em Em
Em C D x2
G A (G F#m) B
Em C D
Repeat over and over. Chords in brackets switch more quickly.
Note: B4 is Bsus4. Also, I actually play A/E/A/E instead of A/E/C#m/B in the video. After recording I realized it actually should be C#m/B for the chorus. They both sound okay, but C#m/B is more accurate.
Intro
Em Em Em B4 B x2
Verse
Em Em Em B4 B x2
1st Chorus
A E C#m B
A E B4 B
Verse x1
2nd Chorus
A E C#m B
A E B4 B
A E
Bridge
F#m B4 B
F#m B4 B
D B D B, E
1st Chorus x 3
Note2:
I'm trying out a new camera angle. I've had a lot of people say my videos are fake, saying I'm not hitting the keys or something, not sure why, but anyway. Maybe this angle works better.
For those who like chords, here are the ones I came up with:
Key: G Major
G Em G Bm, C F Dsus4, D
G Em G Bm, C D Cm G
G Em G Bm, C F Dsus4 D
G Em G F, C D Cm G, F (the F transitions into the next part)
C Am G F x 2
Em A Em F (In the video I actually play C A Em F, but I think Em is right, not C)
C D Cm G
That's all :)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGNHLc4FWwA
For those who want chords, here are the ones I came up with:
Intro - C Am F G x 2
C Am F G x2
Em Am F G
C Am (F G) Ab Fm C
And then I switched to E Major (of course you can transpose to any key you want):
E C#m A B x2
Abm C#m A B
E C#m (A B) C Am E
Chords in brackets switch faster.
I play a slower version after for fun. It's improvised, so I don't have sheet music.
This is an improvisation, so it's not meant to sound exactly like the original. I changed up the key signature a few times for fun. Below are the chords for those who would like them.
Original Key (A Major)
F#m D A E
Then I switch it to B Major:
Abm E B F#
Then finally to C Major:
Am F C G
Then I go back to the original key at the end.
Of course, you can transpose it to any key you wish.
For the chords I started at C, and you just move up half a step each time. So C, C#, D, Eb, E, and then the ending is C# minor, F# minor, A, B, E, B, E.
Merry Christmas!
I don't have sheet music, but I can give you the chords:
A D Bm E A
Fm D Bm E A
From there it's all just transpositions - next to C major:
C F Dm G C
Am F Dm G C
The original song stops there, but in my version I changed the key once more to D major:
D G Em A D
Bm G Em A D
youtube.com/user/PedroPimenta16
This isn't an exact interpretation, and I think I play it a bit fast (since the actual song is closer to 4 minutes).
C, G, Am, F
Then the bridge is:
G, F, G, F
That's about it!
Chords:
Intro
Em
First Part (Repeat x2)
Em B Em, Em B Em, Am Em B Em, B Em
2nd Part
Am Em B Em, Em B Em
Outro
Em B Em
Here are the rough chords I came up with. The opening notes you'll just have to get yourself by watching the video.
Em Am F G
Em Am F# B
Em
Repeat once more.
