Stairway to Heaven Solo
Tabbed by: -SM-

I tabbed it up cause after looking at every stairway to heaven tab, be it the full song or just the solo, it missed some essential parts, or it had the wrong notes. Now I'm not saying those are bad tabs, I'm just saying they aren't exactly accurate ;) I hope this is easy enough to read. I seperated the tab in sections (read: phrases) that you can easily learn, start with the first set of notes, then move on to the next. Its seperated to make it easier, so its not entirely timed. Once you listen to the record you can get the rythm down real good.

There you have it, hold the last bend for a little while then start pumping out the three power chord progression until the end. Great solo. Amazing song.
