Led Zeppelin - Over the Hills and Far Away

        From the CD 'Houses of the Holy'
                Written by Page/Plant
                Atlantic Records  82639-4  and/or  2970

        Standard tuning applies [EADGBe] (low to high). I think this song
is in G. Special thanks to Josh M. Johnson  who
tabbed the solo.
