  Well, someone requested this song the other day, so I   

  figured I'd sit down and learn the damn thing. (BTW,

  thanks for the origional chord progression.)

  

  As for how many times to play each part, listen to the

  recording.  This is taking far to long as is, and I don't

  have the time to tab out every measure.  Just listen for

  phrases that sound familiar and string them together.

                                       E-|-----------------|

  

  Then go on to one of the signature phrases of the song:

  E-|------------------|-------------|------------------|-------------|

  G-|------6-------------------------------------------|

  D-|--6-6-6----6-6-7----2-4-6---2---------------------|

  A-|--6-6-4----6-6-7----2-4-6-------------------------|

  E-|--4-4------4-4-5----0-2-4-------------------------|

  

  At other places, instead of ending with the

  picked notes, this phrase can also end with a

  descending series of power chords: A5, F#5, E5.

  

  Pretty much the rest of the song just mixes those phrases

  in different ways, and since it would take me a year to 

  say specifically where everything goes, I'll let you figure 

  that out.

  

  The really short chords in the middle of the song

  that get muted really fast after being struck I think

  have the following formations:

  

     E       B       A

  ======  ======  ======       Right offhand I don't

  xx999x  xx987x  xx765x       remember the order, though.    

  

  

  As for the solo near the end, I fear that I might be terribly    

  butchering Page's beautiful solo, but here is a rough estimate

  of it:

      

  Solo:

  I hope that didn't suck too bad.  Remember, as always, repeat

  the phrases as necessary.

  

  Good Luck!  And (as always) questions, comments, corrections, and

  additions are very welcome.

  PS - The next song from this album I want to tab in is 

       'Take me for a little while'.  If anyone knows any

       of it, anything at all, beyond the intro, please 

       email me.  This is harder than hell as is...

  

  Thanx
