Led Zeppelin - Dyer Maker guitar tab
Led Zeppelin - D'yer Mak'er
From the cassette 'Houses of the Holy'
Written by Bonham/Jones/Plant
Atlantic Records 82639-4
Previously tabbed by Chris Hannon (email address unavailable) and
by someone at alammen@jmp.fi. It looks like one of them stole the solo from
the other, and both are horribly wrong. It sounds like there is some light
distortion. Play this one very in a very lazy fashion; there is a lot of
muted action going on in the verses.
| = not a standard bar line; just used to separate music
~ = vibrato or held note
x = percussive note with no pitch; muted 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
[x35553] = fret box; this is a C chord - this is the same as standard
tablature, only turned on its side. Tilt your head clockwise to read.
Chord legend:
Am : [577555]
G : [355433]
