Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin - The Ocean (100% Correct) bass tab

The rhythm is really hard on the main riff, so I advise either

playing along with the song, or with a really good drummer who

knows what he's doing. FYI: Half a beat is dropped every other

measure during the riff.

Then it's just Riffs 3 and 4 repeated for the rest of the song.

This is a fun song once you get it down. Enjoy!
