G
Spent my days with a woman unkind,
                                   D
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
G
Made up my mind to make a new start,
                                            D
Going to california with an aching in my heart.
G     
Someone told me theres a girl out there
                                          D
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.

Interlude -2x-: F   G   D 

G    
Took my chances on a big jet plane,
                                               D
Never let them tell you that theyre all the same.
G         
The sea was red and the sky was grey,
                                           D
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
    G                
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
                                      D
As the children of the sun began to awake.
Dm
Seems that the wrath of the gods

Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
                     A7  A
I think I might be sinking.
Dm
Throw me a line if I reach it in time

Ill meet you up there where the path
                  A7  A
Runs straight and high.
G 
To find a queen without a king;
                                              D
They say she plays guitar and cries as she sings.
G           
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
                                                     D
Tryin to find a woman whos never, never, never been born.
G             
Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams,
                                                   D
Telling myself its not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.

Biography

Led Zeppelin was an English rock band originally formed in 1968 by guitarist Jimmy Page under the name “The New Yardbirds”, based on Page’s previous band, The Yardbirds. The band formed when Jimmy Page (guitar) recruited Robert Plant (vocals, harmonica), John Paul Jones (bass guitar, keyboards, mandolin), and John Bonham (drums). With their heavy, guitar-driven blues-rock sound, Led Zeppelin are regularly cited as one of the progenitors of heavy metal and hard rock music.
