I saw a request for this, so I thought I'd post it.  This is my first
real tab, so it may not be perfect.

The song is not overly complex.  There are three main riffs
corresponding to the chords.  Just play the tab for the appropriate
chord.  The tabs may not be perfect, but I know the chords are
correct.

Rhythm:  all eighth notes, played in cut time.

Intro: second half of the "D" tab.

I hope this helps somewhat.  Also, the song is written in the key of D, if
anyone wants to know.

Hopefully, I'll try to post a few other Zeppelin tabs if I get the chance.

Going To California by Led Zeppelin

This song has two acoustic guitars and a mandolin.
However I only know the guitar parts so just
play with notes for the mandolin stuff.

Both guitars are tuned to DGDGBD.
