Hey y'all since we're on this kick of Zeppelin lessons
I figured I'd do another one and this is a quick one because it's an easy song
[Am] I
[Ab] Checked to see if I'm in tune with them.
And this is [A] their a
For a battle of evermore it [G] it sounds I didn't compare it to stuff that I know is standard pitch
it just sounds a little low like they tuned down a little bit, but that may because they
Slow the tape down for the [Am] sake of texture or
[N]
Because I'm full of crap because I don't know
So this may or may not be standard pitch, but [E] here's the e
And [A] here's the a
So [N] you can tune?
According to those but here's our goes it goes into that long
Mandolin intro and then when it comes in [Am] with the guitar, it's a minor [G] G
[Am] back to a minor [C] then C
[Am] A
one so it's just a
basically G [Dbm] to C with a minors in between [Am] so
[G] You [Am]
[G] [Am]
[G] [Am]
can hammer that a [G] minor on [Am] to which he does do in [G] certain places.
And in fact, I think it's I read a couple interviews with
Robert plant and he said he claims that he's the one playing the acoustic.
I know it's Jimmy on Mandolin
[Am] First time we ever played one and I guess maybe plant on the
[Gm] Acoustic when they did it live and on the 77 tour
that was Jimmy on mandolin and
John Paul Jones on the acoustic and
Jonesy also sang
But you know the
female vocal part [E] terribly
If [N] you listen to some of those it's just [Am] awful but alright so you're into the first a minor [G] G [Am] a minor [C] C
[Am]
[G] [Am] [C] [G] C [D]
D
He's almost strumming on the offbeat there and [Am] then back to it [G] [Am]
[G] [Am] [C] C to [D] D
This is that dance in the dark and I part that she's saying
Okay, [G]
[Am] [G] [Am]
[G] [Am]
[A] so you get to that part that I hear the horses thunder part
That's a seven to D
[D]
[A] A seven that's a regular a
Then it's not this a seven
[Em] the two finger
It's a full a chord and then the high e [A] at the third
to [D] be
[A] Down in the valley [D] below this part then [G] g7 to C
tired eyes on the [C] Sun
It's a [G] C and I play it.
I would play it [Em] with the
[G] High e covered the third fret for that G note to give it a little effect
[C] [G]
[C] But you can if you want
[G] G7 to C is that part
[C] and then back to the [Am] other part?
[G] [Am]
[G] [Am] [G] [D]
[Em] [Am] It [G] is [N] actually a good strumming exercise because the strumming does vary the only other part is
When it goes into the little [Am] breakdown part, he's just kind of resting on a minor
Do you do [D] Jimmy sort of replays the intro [Am] part?
[Em]
I guess there's a little transition chord, which is I don't know [B] what it is
But do a regular a minor then take your other fingers off and just leave the middle finger on on the D [Em] string at the second
and then to you my
Back [Am] to [G]
[Am] the beginning again
[G] [Am] [C] This is the bring it back bring it back part [D] and it still doesn't hey now.
Hey now whatever
He's you know, whatever [Bb] ad-lib [D] nonsense.
He's doing there's the same chord
[G] [Am]
[G] [Am]
[G] [Am] [Em] back to that [D] B
[Am] [G] [Am]
[F] And
That's the whole tune there's no
No [Em] other parts to it.
So your best bet is [Gb] to play along with it and just get [Bb] the order of it
And the structure of it, but that's all the
Key:
