Led Zeppelin - Over the Hills and Far Away

    From the CD 'Houses of the Holy'
        Written by Page/Plant
        Atlantic Records

    Standard tuning applies [EADGBe] (low to high). I think this song
is in G.


| = not a standard bar line; just used to separate music
~ = vibrato or held note
h = hammer on
p = pull off
s = slide
b = bend string up to indicated pitch/fret
r = release bend to indicated string/fret
/ = slide up from infinity
\ = slide down into infinity
o \_
o /  repeat sign (always look for these!)
