If I were a carpenter(from the Fate of Nations LP);
Robert Plant;
transcripted by Paul Sorrel()
Hey! Here's the tab of a very simple Plant's song even though it is
very beautyful, especially if you can play guitar... There is just 2 riffs
in
this song, and there are very simple words. I wouldn't recommend to play it
on electric guitar it sounds better on the accoustic guitar.
So here it is,
First of all: ~ - means vibrato.
Intro part:
E-|--------------------|
A-|---6----------------|
D-|-----------8--------|
G-|------------------8-|
B-|--------------------|
E-|--------------------|
E-|--------------------|
A-|---6----------------|
D-|---------8----------|
G-|------------------8-|
B-|--------------------|
E-|--------------------|
E-|--------------------|
A-|---6----------------|
D-|----------8---------|
G-|--------------------|

E-|--------------------|
E-|-----6-----8-----9---------------9---8-----6----~4-------|
A-|---------------------11----------------------------------|
D-|--------------------------11-----------------------------|
G-|---------------------------------------------------------|
B-|---------------------------------------------------------|
E-|---------------------------------------------------------|
Play intro part two times.
It was kinda intro,
then there are the same chords and similar arpegios.
There is a perfect violin solo in the middle of the song, but I'm not the
best
violin player...
So when Robert starts singing it something like this:
(Variate the arpegios as you want; just don't change the chords; )
E-|------------------------9-----------------------|
A-|--6--------------------------11-----------------|
D-|-----8------------------------------11----------|
G-|--------8---------------------------------------|
B-|------------------------------------------------|
E-|------------------------------------------------|
If I were a carpenter, you ...
E-|----------------------9-------------------------|
A-|--6--------------------------11-----------------|
D-|------8-----------------------------------------|
G-|----------8--------------------------11---------|
B-|------------------------------------------------|
E-|------------------------------------------------|
Would you marry me anyway, ...
And so on,
Led Zeppelin and Robert Plant forever!
