the 77's

Nobody's Fault But Mine

by Led Zeppelin (Robert Plant and Jimmy Page)

Ver.1

The intro is double-tracked and played in two octaves.

Its also heavily flanged.  Here's the lower octave:

e---------------------------------------------------------------------------

b--3p0-0-3p0-0-3-3^5--3p0-0-3p0-0---------3p0-0-3-3^5-3-0-------------------

g----------------------------------0-2^4------------------2-0---------------

d---------------------------------------------------------------------------

b---------------------------------------------------------------------------

g-2p1-1-2p1-1-2-2^4^2p1--2--------------------------------------------------

d------------------------2--------------------------------------------------

a------------------------1--------------------------------------------------

E------------------------0--------------------------------------------------

And the intro riff to the lyrics part:

e---------------------------------------------------------------------------

b---------------------------------------------------------------------------

g---------------------------------------------2-----------------------------

d--2p0-0--------------2-----9\7-7-7\4-4-------2-----------------------------

a---------2p0-0-------2-----7\5-5-5\2-2-------0-----------------------------

E----------------3^4--0------------------3^4--------------------------------

And the main rythym:

e---------------------------------------------------------------------------

b---------------------------9--9---------------------9-9-9-10-9-10-9--------

g--7--------7---------------9--9---7------7----------9-9-9-9--9-9--9--------

d--0--7--7--0--7--7---------9--9---0-7-7--0--7-------9-9-9-11-9-11-9--------

a-----0--0-----0--0---5--7--7--7-----0-0-----0--10h11-----------------------

E------------------------0-----0--------------------------------------------

and the ascending chords at the end of each bar(?)

e---------------------------------------------------------------------------

b---------------------------------------------------------------------------

g---------------------------------------------------------------------------

d--2-2--4-4--5-5--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-----------------------------------------

a--2-2--4-4--5-5--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-----------------------------------------

E--0-0--2-2--3-3--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-----------------------------------------

The solo's kind of tough and I really dont remember it.

Heres the ending sequence of the song:

e---------------------------------------------------------------------------

b---------------------------------------------------------------------------

g---------------------------------------------------------------------------

d-------------------------------------------2-2-2---------------------------

a-14\12-12-12-12\9-9-9-9-9\7-7-7-7-7\5------2-2-2---------------------------

E-12\10-10-10-10\7-7-7-7-7\5-5-5-5-5\3-3^4--0-0-0---------------------------

Enjoy!

    I'll check the original notes when I go home and post any

corrections if need be.  Otherwise, this is the way she is folks.

Only a few conditions regarding this post:

                                  

                  (1) learn the riff

                  (2) play it everywhere

                  (3) show others how to play it

                  (4) enjoy the music 

                  (5) tell everyone it was written by Jimmy Page

    "....I'm so happy, I wanna join the band, we're gonna sing and    

     dance in celebration, 'cause we're in the Promised Land...."

The 77's Lyrics

(By Blind Willie Johnson)

[As best I can desern them]

Aah aah aah aah, (et)

Oooo, It's nobody's fault but mine

It's nobody's fault but mine

If I don't keep my soul alive

Its nobodies fault but mine

The devil he told me to roam

The devil he told me to roam, roam, roam

I've been a roamin' into the night

Well, It's nobody's fault but mine

ah.....

I've got a Bible in my house

I've got a Bible in my house

If I don't read it and my soul dies

Well, It's nobody's fault but mine

My sister she told me to read it

My sister she told me to read, read, read

I didn't read it, lost the light

Well, It's nobody's fault but mine

ah.....

If I don't keep my soul alive

Well, No No No Nobody's Fault
