_ _ 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
