I know that technically there’s no song called the “Shire Theme” from Lord of the Rings but it’s a mash up of Concerning Hobbits and In Dreams, which always reminds me of the shire :)

Alesahna GW2 Harp – In Dreams/Concerning Hobbits from Lord of the Rings

From the video description:

I’ve had a version of this done for a while now, but even as I changed things it still never seemed good enough to post or call finished. So I went back and did a new version from the ground up, using a beautiful piano arrangement of In Dreams by Kyle Landry and mashing up some pieces of Concerning Hobbits with what I could develop of a bass line. The result is something I really am proud of, with lots of room for expression and a lot of depth. It doesn’t perfectly follow either theme, but I think it still captures the important parts of the melody.

I play and arrange my songs myself, and my transcriptions are meant to be easy to read while playing. Type the numbers as you see them, notes in {}’s are meant to be pressed at the same time, while notes in ()‘s are meant to be strummed smoothly as a sliding chord. Octave swaps are in []’s for visibility.
