The Song Remains the Same by Led Zeppelin
This was a requested a while ago, but it took a while to tab. Sorry for the wait.
This song has 3 12-string electrics and 2 6-strings(telecaster thru supro) Ill try to keep them all straight for you.
The intro is 1 12string banging out an open D repeatedly. One 12-string plays this set of chords over it:
e--2-----5-----7-----9\----14------14\----------------------------------- b--3-----6-----8----10\----15------15\----------------------------------- g--2-----5-----7-----9\----14------14\----------------------------------- d------------------------------------------------------------------------ a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
and the third 12 plays these chords:
e--------------12----12---------14-----14\------------------------------- b--7-----8-----12----14---------15-----15\------------------------------- g--7-----7-----12----14---------14-----14\------------------------------- d--7----10--------------------------------------------------------------- a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now one 12 stops playing and one 12 plays these chords while the second 12 plays the same chords but with an open D-string instead of a second fret D. e--0----0-0--2------2-2--0---0-0--2--2-2--3--3-3-0--0-0--3--3-3--2------ b--3----3-3--3------3-3--3---3-3--3--3-3--3--3-3-3--3-3--3--3-3--3------ g--2----2-2--2------2-2--2---2-2--2--2-2--2--2-2-2--2-2--2--2-2--2------ d--2----2-2--2------2-2--2---2-2--2--2-2--2--2-2-2--2-2--2--2-2--2------ a----------------------------------------------------------------------- E-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Now this chord sequence is played by 2 12's the same way and repeat it. /-again the 2nd 12 plays the open D on this chd e-2--2-2-----2--2--3--3-3----2--0--------------------------------------- b-3--3-3-----3--3--3--3-3----3--3--------------------------------------- g-2--2-2-----2--2--2--2-2----2--2--------------------------------------- d-0--0-0-----0--0--0--0-0----0--0--------------------------------------- a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Next is both 12's playing this:
e---0----0---0-0----0---0---0-------0--------0----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---- b---1-1----1---0-0--0-----0----1--3---3-1-3-------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---- g------------------------------------------------------------------------ d-3-----------------3----------3----------------------------------------- a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next one of the 6 strings come in with the 2 12's to play this:
e--0----0-0--2------2-2--0---0-0--2--2-2--3--3-3-0--0-0--3--3-3--2------ b--3----3-3--3------3-3--3---3-3--3--3-3--3--3-3-3--3-3--3--3-3--3------ g--2----2-2--2------2-2--2---2-2--2--2-2--2--2-2-2--2-2--2--2-2--2------ d--2----2-2--2------2-2--2---2-2--2--2-2--2--2-2-2--2-2--2--2-2--2------ a----------------------------------------------------------------------- E-----------------------------------------------------------------------
One this next distorted part, the six string plays this: and 12's play this e-------------------------------------------------2----------------------- b-------------------------------------------------3----------------------- g-------------------------------------------------2----------------------- d-------------------------------------------------2----------------------- a---------------0------------------------------0-------------------------- E---3^4--0-3^4--0-----------------3^4--0--3^4-----------------------------
Here is the 2 12's backing part to the first solo:
e---2------2---3--3-------5--3------------------------------------------- b-----3------3------3-----3--5------------------------------------------- g-------2-------------2-------------------------------------------------- d-0---------------------------------------------------------------------- a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the first 6 string solo:
e------------------------------------------------------------------------ b------------------------------------------------------------------------ g-----------------------------------------------------7-9-7---7---------- d------------------------7-9-7---9-7---7--7-7-----7-9-------9------------ a-3^4--0--3^4--5-7p5-7/9-------9-----9----------------------------------- E------------------------------------------------------------------------
e-------------7----------------------------------------10---------------- b---------------10-7----------------------------------------------------- g----7--9^11---------9-7---9-7---7-9-7---7-7----7-9^11----(11)^9--7------ d--9---------------------9-----9-------9-----9--------------------------- a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
e------------------------------------7------------------------------------ b--7^8-7-------------------------------10-7------------------------------- g--------7------7-9-7---7----7-9^11---------9-7---9-7---7----------------- d-----------7-9-------9----9--------------------9-----9------------------- a------------------------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now the 6 string plays this figure a few times:
e------------------------------0------------------------------------------ b------------------------------0------------------------------------------ g--/5-4-2---2----/5-4--2-----2-------------------------------------------- d---------3--------------3-3---------------------------------------------- a------------------------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------------------------
And ends it with this: e------------------------------------------------------------------------ b------------------------------------------------------------------------ g--/5-4-2-0------------------------------------------------------------------- d------------3-2-0---------------------------------------------------------- a------------------3-2-0---------------------------------------------------- E------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 2 12's play this after the solo: and end that section with a bunch of /-these e--3-5---8--8--8------3--5---8--8--8--7-7---8--------------------------- b--5-7--10-10-10------5--7--10-10-10--9-9--10--------------------------- g----------------------------------------------------------------------- d----------------------------0------------------------------------------ a----------------------------------------------------------------------- E-----------------------------------------------------------------------
During the vocals, the 2 12's play on this basic pattern with a few subtle changes on the first couple of measures.
e--0---0---------------3-----0------0----------------------------------- b--1---1-----3-----3h5----3--3--3-3---3p1-----0------------------------- g--0---0-----0-----------------------------0---------------------------- d--2---2---------------------------------------------------------------- a--3---3---------------------------------------------------------------- E-----------------------------------------------------------------------
While the 6 plays this on the first two measures.
e-----------------------3----------------------------3------------------------ b----------------1---------------------------------3-------3---0-------------- g-2^4^2----------------------0--0--------------5^6-----3/4---4--------0------- d---------0-0-2----2---------2--2------0----5---------------------0h2--------- a----------------------------3--3---------5-----------------------------1h2--- E---------------------------------------------------------------------------3-
And on the third measure the 12's play this:
e-0--0----0--0---0-----------0--0----------0--0----0--0---0---0---0--0------- b-1--1----2--2---2-----2-----0-------0-2--------0--1----0-1-----0-1---1-0--0- g-0--0--------------3-----3--------3---3---3-------------------------------0- d-2--2----4----4----4--4--4------------------------------------------------0- a-3--3----------------------------------------------------------------------- E----------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the 6 plays this:
e-----------------------------------7--------6-------5--5--/10-8-/13-13/12 b--2-----2---------------------------------5-------5----------------------- g----------3-------------------4/7-----4/6-----4h5------5----------------- d----4-----4-----------------4-------------------------------------------- a--------------------------4---------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heres that mid section thing:
e--------15-|-(5)^7^5-5-3------3------------3------------------------------- b-----------|-------------------------3-----------4------------------------- g--14/16----|--------------3h4----3-4---3h4---3-4---3^4--------------------- d-----------|-------------------------------------------5------------------- a-----------|--------------------------------------------------------------- E-----------|---------------------------------------------------------------
On the last measure of the vocal part, the 6 plays this:
e---------------------------------1--------5-------10--8-----8-------10-- b-------------------------0-----1---1--------------------------10/12----- g---------------------------1-2-------3/5-----5/10----10-10-10----------- d-6^8-6^8-6-5-4 --6^8-6-4------------------------------------------------ a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------ Then just bend the g-string 5th fret up and pick it as you release the bend.
The second solo is this:
e----------------------------------------7------------------------------- b--7-----7-----------------------------7---10-10-7----------------------- g--9^11--9^11--9p7h9----7-7-7-----9^11-------------9p7-9p7----7-7-------- d---------------------9-------9----------------------------9------9------ a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
e-------7----------------------------------------------------------------- b---------10-7------------------------------------------------------------ g--9^11--------9-7-9-7---7-9-7-------------------------------------------- d----------------------9-------9-7-9-7---7-9-7---7-9-7/9-7-9-7---7-------- a--------------------------------------9-------9---------------9---------- E-------------------------------------------------------------------------
e---------------------------------------10-------------------------------- b-------------------------------------------13-10----10------------------- g------------------------9p7-7---7-9/11-----------12----10^11------------- d----------------------7-------9------------------------------12---------- a-9\7-5-5--5-5--5h7/9----------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------------------------------
e--------------------------------------------------15-------------------- b--------13-15^17-15-------------13-15-(15)^16^17-----15^17-15----------- g--9/14---------------12----9/14----------------------------------------- d------------------------------------------------------------------------ a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
e--------------------------------------------------------------15---------- b--15^17--15---------------------------------------------15^17-----15^17-15 g-------------12-14^16^14---------16^18---14----14-16---------------------- d-------------------------------------------------------------------------- a-------------------------------------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------------------------------------
e-------------------------------7---------------------------------------- b--12^13---12^13^12---------------10-7-10-7\----------------------------- g--------------------14------0-------------------------------7----------- d-------------------------------------------------7-10-7---7-7----------- a---------------------------------------------7/9--------9--------------- E------------------------------------------------------------------------
e------------------------------------------------------------------------ b------------------------------------------------------------------------ g-----------------7-------------------7-7-7\----------------------------- d------7-10-7---7-7-------10p7----7---7-7-7\----------------------------- a--7/9--------9-------7/9------10---9------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the next vocals bit, The 12's play this chord sequence hitting each one 3 or 4 times: /--now just arpeggiate this chord e--8--7--10---8--12---10/14--------------------------------------------- b-10--8--12--10--13---12/15--------------------------------------------- g------------------------16--------------------------------------------- d----------------------------------------------------------------------- a----------------------------------------------------------------------- E-----------------------------------------------------------------------
After that, the 12's play this:
e-0-----------------------------2---3---2---0------------0------0-------- b-------3-------------------3----3---3---3---3---1-3---1----------------- g-0-0-0-0--0-0-0--0-0-0-0---0-----2---2---2---2------2------------------- d-------------------------0-2-----------------------------------2---2---2 a-------------------------------------------------------------3-----3-3-- E------------------------------------------------------------------------
e------------------------------------------------------------------------ b--------------------------------3--------------------------------------- g--------------------------------2--------------------------------------- d--5-5-5-4-4-4-2-----------------0--------------------------------------- a--3-3-3-2-2-2-0--7-7-7-5-5-5-5--2--------------------------------------- E-----------------5-5-5-3-3-2-0--0---------------------------------------
The 6 string part over that is:
e--15-------------------------------------------------------------------- b------(15)^17^15-------------------------8^10---(8)^10^8---------------- g------------------(14)^16^14--9--7-8-9-7------7------------------------- d------------------------------------------------------------------------ a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
e-15--------------------------------------------------------------------- b----15^17^15------------------------------------------------------------ g-------------14^16^14-14--14\12----------------------------------------- d--------------------------------12-12/14-------------------------------- a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
e--------------------------------7^9-7-5-----------(7)^9^7-7-5----------- b------------------6---5-----5------------7^9-7-5------------------------ g------------5-5-7---7---7-7--------------------------------------------- d------5-5-7------------------------------------------------------------- a--5-7------------------------------------------------------------------- E------------------------------------------------------------------------ And then the power chords with the 12's and the 6
Next is as little soloing over the rythym laid down by the 2 12's and 1 6
e------------------------------------------------------------------------ b------------------------------------------------------------------------ g---7^9^7p5-------------2h4p2---2----------2h4p2---2------2h4p2---2------ d-----------7-------2-4-------4--------2-4-------4--------------4-------- a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
e-------2---------------------------------------------------------------- b---------5-2---------2----10h13p10--12-15-15^16--15-12-12--------------- g--4^6--------4-2-4-2---------------------------------------------------- d------------------------------------------------------------------------ a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------
e------------------------------------------------------------------------ b-------10-12-10----10----10--------10-12-10----10----12------10-12-10--- g--9/11----------11----11------9/11----------11----11-----9/11----------- d------------------------------------------------------------------------ a------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now w/heavy distortion repeat this figure a few times and end it w/ that last little chord. e------------------------------------------------------------------------ b------------------------------------------------------------------------ g--------------2----------------------4p2-----------------2-------------- d--2-2-----2-4---4-2--2-2------2-4-2------4p2-------------0-------------- a--0-0-2/4------------0-0--2/4------------------------------------------- E------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well that's about all of it. Sorry for any mistakes. CHUCK

THE END
LEGEND: ================ --4^6- = play 4 hammer on 6 --4b5- = play 4 bend up to 5 --5r4- = play 5 release down to 4 --4R- = ride on that note ====================================
*gasp* for breath.. nasty tab to write out I'm sure it'll be semi nasty to decipher as well, but it's pretty much complete other than the solos.. I play this with only 1 other guitarist. In the case where you only have 2 guitarists the soloing (guit.3) replaces guit.2 (when they're both playin together..)
The only way to figure out this tab and the song is to listen to the song a bunch of times while trying to follow the tab and play yer guitar.. Though the tab looks kinda chaotic, and there r lotsa references to **3** and **2** etc (which you'll have to memorize ;) it's fairly complete.
Hope some1 uses this tab to it's potential ;)
