Led Zeppelin - Celebration Day
From the CD set 'Remasters'
Written by Jones/Page/Plant
Atlantic Records 82371-2
Celebration Day is a cool song that's easy to play if you
practice it for a while. Make sure you listen to it a few times before
you attempt to play it. The entire song is in 4/4 so it should be easy to
keep up. I think this song is in A. Special thanks to Josh M. Johnson
who tabbed the solo.
Fiz tabbed the intro and retabbed the main
riff. The A string works as a kind of drone throughout the whole song,
except for the chorus. Let it ring wherever sounds good and try to
mute the E string with your thumb. There are guitar overdubs in the
song, so it's impossible to play it exactly just with one guitar. In
the chorus the feeling is given by the bass lines, it'd be nice if
someone could tab them.
