In The Evening
Led Zeppeling

The intro thing is just a droning synthesizer and Jimmy playing the open
E-string with a bow.  The overdub is called(I think) a rotovibe which
is a little spinning wheel which when you touch it to the string,
produces that rolling sound.

The main riff is double-tracked and with a little adlibbing is basically:
by the way this is with a strat, or something with a whammy bar:

e-----------------------------------------------------------------------b---5--5-5--3--3--2\\0//2\\0-------------5-5-5-3-3--2\\0//2-------------g---4--4-4--2--0--2\\0//2\\0-------------4-4-4-2-0--2\\0//2-------------d---2--2-2--0--0--2\\0//2\\0----2-5-2----2-2-2-0-0--2\\0//2-------------a-----------------------------------------------------------------------E-0-----------------------------------0--------------------------------- ^^^Thats a bend down on the whammy bar
The first chorus has something like this:
e---------5--------------------------------------------------------------b--7--7---5--7---------7--7/8-7----------------5--7-----------7/8--7-----g--7--7---6--7------7--7--7/9-7---7-7/9-7--7---6--7--------7--7/9--7-----d--7--7---7--7------7-------------7-7/9-7--7---7--7----7/9-7-------------a--5--5---7--5--9-9-------------9---------9----7--5--9-------------------E---------5--------------------------------------------------------------

The second and fourth choruses go with this chord sequence:
e---3--3---------3--3---3-------5--5---5--5--------------------------------b---3--3--7------3--3---3----9--5--5---5--5--9-----------------------------g---4--4--7------4--4---4----9--6--6---6--6--9-----------------------------d---5--5--7------5--5---5----9--7--7---7--7--9------4-4-4------------------a---5--5--5------5--5---5----7--7--7---7--7--7--7---2-2-2------------------E---3--3---------3--3---3-------5--5---5--5-----5--------------------------
The fourth chorus has this backing line:
e-------------------7\\6//7------------------------7\\6//7--------------b---------8-----8---8\\7//8--------------8---8-10--8\\7//8--------------g-------7---7-7------------------------7---7----------------------------d--9-9-----------------------------9-9----------------------------------a-----------------------------------------------------------------------E-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The chorus before the solo goes like this:
e-----------------------------------------------------------------------b---7-7-----7-7--------------------7----------7/8--7----------------7---g---7-7-----7-7----------------6---7-----7-7--7/9--7----7--------6--7---d---7-7-----7-7--------9-7-----7---7-----7-7------------7-7---7--7--7---a---5-5-----5-5------9-----9---7---5---9--------------9-----9----7--5---E------------------------------5---------------------------------5------

The solo is something like this: The starting thing is Jimmy holding down the Whammy Bar as hard as he can and forcefully picking out a E-Chord and letting up on the bar:
e-------0----12----------------12-------------------12---------------12--b------0--------14----------12----15~------------12----15~---------12----g-----1---14------14--14^16----------------14^16-------------14^16-------d----2-------------------------------------------------------------------a---2--------------------------------------------------------------------E--0--------------------------------------------------------------------- Repeat this^^^^^^^^^^^ 5 times pretty quickly
