Tuning: E A D G B E

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stairway to Heaven – Led Zeppelin --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Written by: Page/Plant From: "Led Zeppelin IV" (1971) Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard Some of the versions here are easy to play, but do not sound right at all. Others have the correct chords, but are probably too difficult for many players who are familiar with some basic shapes but are not yet used to go beyond the first three frets and may have problems playing barre chords. With this version I tried to go a middle way. I kept the chords easy to play, but they should still fit the original. Some may have intimidating names but don't let that discourage you: if you look at the voicings, you'll notice they are not difficult because I cut them down so they can mostly be played using only two or three fingers of the left hand and there are no barre chords at all.
