Okay, this is a whole lot of love from Led Zeppelin 2
essentially just parts of it meaning that you know it kicks in the song kicks in
over busy the bass drum parts in there, but I think the gist of it is is that it goes
So that's the rep

_ Okay, this is a whole lot of love from Led Zeppelin 2
_ _ _ _ It's _ essentially just parts of it meaning that you know it kicks in the song kicks in
_ To _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ over busy the bass drum parts in there, but I think the gist of it is is that it goes
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ So that's the rep _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ Okay, _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ and that of course that's in the _ _ [N] main part of the song, but then you go _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ There's _ not a lot of crashes in those parts until the song goes on later, it's not like _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Later and as he builds as they build in toward the middle of the song you get the _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ You
That is the point being is that once it builds up into the middle that's when he starts bringing on the crashes in the snare _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ And then of course you get into the
_ _ _ _ Which _ _ _ _ _ _ is cool, I think what I understand from the recording is is they actually _
_ They inserted that middle.
You know the
_ _ _ Effects in the _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Theremin and all that other stuff so essentially, but of course like the _ [F] metronome or the thing keeping it going was the hi-hat _ _
Which [G] I understood I can't I don't remember where I heard this from
But I I do know that that I did read in a couple [N] spots
It was inserted, but I think that you know bottom said there.
There's a loop essentially was hi-hat just keeping time
They're not he sat there for four minutes to dinner did it and they took like eight seconds
It just laid it out in a machine just and suddenly had like a loop of it.
You know
_ Then they just kind of did everything to let's imagine that bottom does it for four minutes _ _
To _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A#m] me totally you know I'm a huge feisty guy, and you can totally your b8la all over that recording _
Technically this course would be 12.
It's a sound for me, but you know what I mean.
You don't they don't [F#] the zilgen
[A#] _ _
Zilgen [F] bells
_ Zilgen bells don't sound like that.
They have a different sort of bellies
Sound to them anyway.
[N] That's a quick aside
Totally so anyways _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Speaking _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D#] _ _ [C]
I _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
really do think I'm doing my best to play it through there requires a lot of practice, but from what I do understand _ that that
_ _ That is just essentially the loop on the hi-hat going so [A#m] essentially in the studio _ that that was
Going on is that you [Am] just went?
[G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ So _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ [N] _
_ _ again if you really did you can sit and practice if you want _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Okay, _ [Cm] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I don't like I said, I don't think he actually did that in real time
Can be done.
I mean you can price it and practice it, but [A#] again.
I really do
You know don't don't beat yourself up.
I'm not beating myself up over
I don't know if I spent maybe _ 19 years working on it get it, but anyway really though
Like when you see in the live version you know you just you know the live version [Bm] to me in the same instance a little
Lame, but it still does rock pretty good
There's certain parts of it like that
_ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ So _ _ _ and then
_ _ _ And of course in typical bottom of that era fashion, there's a [D] lot
_ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ [A#] _ _ [B] _ _
_ [N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ And _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ there's cool, but there's a lot of effects on that song in fact you see me when I play it I go
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Because _ _ there's a real like that song actually has sort of like a
_ 16th note II feel to it now probably that could be ascribing maybe the
Delays they were using the echoes or the fairchild limit or whatever, but when I play it I just go _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Minor variations you know but generally speaking when I listen to 90% of the time is
_ _ And _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ that's essentially it that's the tune.
I mean it's not of course easy to play I mean clearly perfect.
_ That's it.
It's a great _ _
