That's the Way Led Zeppelin
THAT'S THE WAY- Led Zeppelin
"Standard tuning" version by sinforge xJp
I do NOT claim that this tab is a 100% note-for-note transcription,
rather, it's an alternative way to play it without the open Gb tuning.
Also.. the vocal to guitar rhythms are very relaxed in this song. So
if you happen to disagree with a chord I've matched to a certain word in
the tab, breath.. and forgive. If you're familiar with the song, it's
not a big enough issue to complain about.
See the below for chord position details.
EADGBe, Capo 2
