That's all there is in the studio version, but it can be extended to
however long and the d string on the 7th fret can also be used.
Violin Bow Solo
Here, Instead of trying to tab out the studio version (an amalgam of overdubs)
I am going to tab out most of what Page Played at Led Zeppelins performance at
the Royal Albert Hall on January 9th 1970. You can find this on the main feature
on disc one of their DVD. This is not exact so there are probably a lot of errors
and there are parts which I did not tab so here goes. Forget about rhythm this is in free time.

And that’s that. This is a mixture of my work and tabs from the internet, so thanks
to those who tabbed bits out(most notably the Solo). Speaking of the solo, if you
find it hard, just learn little recognizable phrases and for the rest just jam on
an E minor pentatonic. Here it is. Enjoy
