                    Custard Pie - Led Zeppelin





Explanation:                  
~~~~~~~~~~~~
/ x         Slide up to x
 x         Slide down to x
(x ^ y)     Bend up, from x to y           if notes are in pasenthesises
(x v y)     Bend down, from x to y         they are hit once
([x] ^ y)   Play y bent, [don't play x]
(x - y)     Pull off from x to y 
(x + y)     Hammer-on from x to y
~~x,y       Trill x and y
~~~x        Wiggle note
^~~x        Play note x bent and wiggle


===========================================================================
This the differant riffs to the song.
I have not put in the solo, but is an A pentatonic scale.
Of course there is some movement during the chord 
changes, but A pentatonic will work if you are 
new at soloing.
   The song is fairly simple. The riff in A is repeated x number of
times, then to the part in D.
Back to the A, finally to E.
  Good Luck, and most important, 
                  HAVE FUN!
