Led Zeppelin - The Song Remains The Same
This song has 3 12-string electrics and 2 6-strings(telecaster
thru supro)
Ill try to keep them all straight for you.
The intro is 1 12string banging out an open D repeatedly.
One 12-string plays this set of chords over it:
E|-2-----5-----7-----9----14------14-|
B|-3-----6-----8----10----15------15-|
G|-2-----5-----7-----9----14------14-|
D|-----------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------|
and the third 12 plays these chords:
E|-------------12----12---------14-----14-|
B|-7-----8-----12----14---------15-----15-|
G|-7-----7-----12----14---------14-----14-|
D|-7----10--------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------|
Now one 12 stops playing and one 12 plays these chords
while the second 12 plays the same chords but with an open
D|-string instead of a second fret D.
E|-0-0-0-2-2-2-0-0-0-2-2-2-3-3-3-0-0-0-3-3-3-2-|
B|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|
G|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
D|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
A|---------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------|
Now this chord sequence is played by 2 12`s the same way
and repeat it. /-again the 2nd 12 plays the
open D on this chd
E|-2--2-2----2--2--3--3-3----2--0-|
B|-3--3-3----3--3--3--3-3----3--3-|
G|-2--2-2----2--2--2--2-2----2--2-|
D|-0--0-0----0--0--0--0-0----0--0-|
A|--------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------|
Next is both 12`s playing this:
E|---0---0---0-0---0-0---0------0-------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|
B|---1-1---1---0-0-0---0----1-3---3-1-3---0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|
G|------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-3---------------3--------3---------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------|
Next one of the 6 strings come in with the 2 12`s to play this:
E|-0-0-0--2--2-2--0---0-0--2--2-2--3--3-3-0--0-0--3--3-3--2-|
B|-3-3-3--3--3-3--3---3-3--3--3-3--3--3-3-3--3-3--3--3-3--3-|
G|-2-2-2--2--2-2--2---2-2--2--2-2--2--2-2-2--2-2--2--2-2--2-|
D|-2-2-2--2--2-2--2---2-2--2--2-2--2--2-2-2--2-2--2--2-2--2-|
A|----------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------|
One this next distorted part,
the six string plays this: and 12`s play this
E|-----------------------------------------------2-|
B|-----------------------------------------------3-|
G|-----------------------------------------------2-|
D|-----------------------------------------------2-|
A|-------------0------------------------------0----|
E|-3^4--0-3^4--0-----------------3^4--0--3^4-------|
Here is the 2 12`s backing part to the first solo:
E|---2------2---3--3-------5--3-|
B|-----3------3------3-----3--5-|
G|-------2-------------2--------|
D|-0----------------------------|
A|------------------------------|
E|------------------------------|
And the first 6 string solo:

G|---------------------------------------------------7-9-7---7-|
D|----------------------7-9-7---9-7---7--7-7-----7-9-------9---|
A|-3^4-0-3^4--5-7p5-7/9-------9-----9--------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------7--------------------------------------10----------|

D|----------7-9-------9----9--------------------9-----9---|
A|--------------------------------------------------------|

Now the 6 string plays this figure a few times:
E|------------------------------0-|
B|------------------------------0-|
G|--/5-4-2---2----/5-4--2-----2---|
D|---------3--------------3-3-----|
A|--------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------|

E|------------------------|
B|------------------------|
G|--/5-4-2-0--------------|
D|------------3-2-0-------|
A|------------------3-2-0-|
E|------------------------|
The 2 12`s play this after the solo: and end that section with
a bunch of

G|--------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------0----------------|
A|--------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------|
During the vocals, the 2 12`s play on this basic pattern with a
few subtle changes on the first couple of measures.
E|-0---0---------------3-----0------0-----------|
B|-1---1-----3-----3h5----3--3--3-3---3p1-----0-|
G|-0---0-----0-----------------------------0----|
D|-2---2----------------------------------------|

While the 6 plays this on the first two measures.
E|-----------------3-------------------3-----------------------|
B|-------------1---------------------3-------3---0-------------|
G|-2^4^2-------------0--0--------5^6-----3/4---4-------0-------|
D|-------0-0-2---2---2--2-0---5--------------------0h2---------|
A|-------------------3--3---5----------------------------1h2---|
E|-----------------------------------------------------------3-|
And on the third measure the 12`s play this:
E|-0-0-0-0---0--------0--0---------0--0---0-0---0-0---0-0------|
B|-1-1-2-2---2---2----0-------0-2-------0-1---0-1---0-1--1-0-0-|
G|-0-0---------3---3--------3---3--3-------------------------0-|
D|-2-2-4---4---4-4-4-----------------------------------------0-|
A|-3-3---------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------|
And the 6 plays this:
E|----------------------7--------6-------5--5--/10-8-/13-13/12-|
B|--2-----2--------------------5-------5-----------------------|
G|----------3------4/7-----4/6-----4h5------5------------------|
D|----4-----4----4---------------------------------------------|
A|-------------4-----------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------|
Heres that mid section thing:
E|--------15-|-(5)^7^5-5-3------3------------3-------------|
B|-----------|-------------------------3-----------4-------|
G|--14/16----|--------------3h4----3-4---3h4---3-4---3^4---|
D|-----------|-------------------------------------------5-|
A|-----------|---------------------------------------------|

On the last measure of the vocal part, the 6 plays this:
E|-------------------------------1-------5------10--8-----8-|
B|-----------------------0-----1---1------------------------|
G|-------------------------1-2-------3/5---5/10----10-10-10-|
