Led Zeppelin - Carouselambra
From the CD 'In Through the Out Door' Written by Jones/Page/Plant Swan Song 16002 and/or Atlantic 92443-2
This file is mostly chords. The song is in C, the part I tabbed out is in D, and the end is in G. Most of it is synth and/or keyboard, so I have that here too. You can figure out which is keys and which is guitar. Enjoy.

Progression:
G A A G A A G A A G A A B C#
Repeat this 8 times:
[x00231] [x02220] Dm/A A
With verse: [x33211] [x30210]
F/C C Sisters by the wayside bide their time in quiet peace, await their place within the ring of calm.
Dm/A A Still stand to turn in seconds of release, await the call they know may never come.
F/C C In times of lightness no intruder dared upon to jeopardize the course, upset the run.
Dm/A A All was joy and hands were raised towards the sun, as love in halls of plenty overrun.
[xx0233] [xx0232] Dsus4 D Ah, ah, ah, ah.
Then 4 times in the same pattern:
[113331] [133211] Bb/F F
4 times: Dm/A A
F/C C Still in their bliss unchallenged mighty feast, unending dances shadowed on the day.
Dm/A A Within the wall their dauting formless keep, preserved their joy and kept their doubts at bay.
F/C C Faceless legions stood in readiness to weep, just turn a coin, bring order to the fray.
Dm/A A And everything is soon no sooner thought than deed, but no-one seemed to question anyway.
Dsus4 D Ah, ah, ah, ah.
4 times:
Bb/F F
Then the keyboard does a little roll which kinda goes like this:
|: A~ F G :| [Play it four times]
F/C C How keen the soaring hunter's eye prevails upon the land, to seek the unsuspecting and the weak.
Dm/A A And powerless the fabled sat, too slow to lift a hand, toward the foe that threatened them from the deep.
F/C C Who cares to dry the cheeks of those who saddened stand, adrift upon the sea of futile speech?
Dm/A A Wha??
Dsus4 D Ah, ah, ah, ah.
4 times:
Bb/F F
Then the keyboard does that little roll again:
|: A~ F G :| [Play it four times]
The keyboard does another thing but I'll list the chords here:
|: F G Em :| [Play it three times]
|: A~ F G :| [two times]
|: F G Em :| [Play it three times]
|: A~ F G :| [two times]
|: F G Em :| [Play it three times]
[This is in D]:
[Riff 1] - play it once initially

[Riff 2] x2
[Riff 2] with lyrics:
Where was your word, where did you go? Where was your helping, where was your bow? Bow.
[Riff 1] x1
[Riff 2] w/ lyrics:
Dull is the armour, cold is the day. Hard was your journey, dark was the way. Way.
[Riff 1] x1
[Riff 2] w/ lyrics:
I heard the word, I couldn't stay, oh. I couldn't stand it another day. Another day, ay, another day, Another day.
Keyboard bangs out an A chord, then it plays a G for four measures [final key switch to G], then A again for four measures.
Play G: Touched by the timely coming, roused from the keeper's sleep, Play A: release the grip, throw down the key. Play D: Held now within the knowing, rest now within the peace, Play A: Take of the fruit, but guard the seed.
Play D for four measures, then:
[x04442] |: A A B/A~ :| [Play this four times]
Play G for four measures, then A for four measures.
Play G: Held now within the knowing, rest now within the beat, take of the fruit but guard the seed.
Play D for four measures, then:
Play A: Take of the fruit but guard the seed.
Play D for four measures, then:
|: A A B/A~ :| [Play this three times]
Repeat until fadeout: [x05553] |: A A B/A~ C/A B/A :|
