The Lemon Song (tab) — Led Zeppelin
From: Zil ([email protected]) To: [email protected]
The other Lemon Song that they have at FTP isn`t complete, so again it is up to me, the mighty Zil, to make up for it. On this song, Jimmy Page uses a Les Paul set to treble. The amp is set to distortion, and at the "quiet part," Jimmy uses a delay pedal set for 4 times repetition. I love this song, and it`s one of my favorites to play. John Paul Jones really kicks ass in this song, too. Because this is such a long song, part of it is over there-->
The Lemon Song from the album Led Zeppelin II by John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page, John Bonham, & Robert Plant
