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 <[email protected]> who tabbed the solo.

| = not a standard bar line; just used to separate music ~ = vibrato or held note x = percussive note with no pitch; muted note . = staccato; mute the note immediately after striking it h = hammer on p = pull off s = slide o \_ o / repeat sign (always look for these!)

Song Progression:

Riff 1

With [Riff 1]:

Her face is cracked from smiling, all the fears that she`s been hiding, and it seems that pretty soon evr`ybody`s gonna know.

And her voice is sore from shouting, cheering winners who are losing, and she wonders if their days are few and soon they`ll have to go.

Riff 1

With [Riff 2]: (chords shown here for reference)

My, my, my, I`m so happy, I`m gonna join the band. We are gonna dance and sing in celebration, we are in the promised land.

With [Riff 1]:

She hears them talk of new ways to protect the home she lives in, Then she wonders what it`s all about when they break down the door. Her name is Brown or White or Black; you know her very well. You hear her cries of mercy as the winners toll the bell.

With [Riff 2]:

My, my, my, I`m so happy, I`m gonna join the band. We are gonna sing and dance in celebration, we are in the promised land.

Solo

With [Riff 1]:

There is a train that leaves the station heading for your destination, But the price you pay to nowhere has increased a dollar more. Yes, it has! And if you walk you`re gonna get there although it takes a little longer, And when you see it in the distance you will wring your hands and moan.

Repeat [Riff 1] until fade out
