(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.

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: E-|----------------------------------------------------------------| B-|-------------------------------7s9----9s7--------------9p7------| G-|----------------------6-7s9---------------------9---9------9----| D-|-----9b11rb9--7--6---------9----------------6h9---9-------------| A-|-7--------------------------------------------------------------| E-|----------------------------------------------------------------| E-|----------------7----------------------7b9rb7------------------------| B-|---7--s9---10-----10p9---9-------9-10---------10-9----9-7b9rb7-------| G-|-9---------------------9----------------------------------------9----| D-|---------------------------------------------------------------------| A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|------------------------7----------------7-----------| B-|---7h9-10-9vvv-------------10-10------------10-10----| G-|-9---------------9-----------------------------------| D-|-------------------9---------------------------------| A-|-----------------------------------------------------| E-|-----------------------------------------------------| 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.

If anyone knows any of it, anything at all, beyond the intro, please email me. This is harder than hell as is... Thanx _________
