@@yordankaacosta2849 bruh u cant get that arrangement. I have spent like 7 months working out that arrangements from different arrangements around the internet and playing by ear. I researched into eric levine and apparently he came up with this from different arrangements he already knew in his head and there is no manuscript for this. Im almost finished tho i have learned up to one minute and 141 seconds which is exactly the samr as how he plays it except not as fluent. Also i changed a couple of parts in their to sound more like the film. Theres are a couple of scripts im the comments but they have different notes and some of the notes sound off. I have corrected those also. I have a version on my page but its not ad good as how i can play it now and i can play more also. When i master it i will make a video.

After having absolutely no luck finding this exact version on paper, I finally downloaded one that's similar to yours.

I have started transcribing it, note by note, on Finale Songwriter. I should be finished in a couple weeks, but no promises. I will post a megaupload link for all to enjoy as soon as I'm finished.
