Here is the official way to play Four Sticks as I got it directly from the complete Led
Zeppelin IV Tabulature book.
FOUR STICKS
Words and music by Jimmy Page
and Robert Plant
The intro/verse riff has three guitars, all standard tuning:
guitar 1:
———————————
———————————
———————————
———/2—5b———/2—5b——
—4—5———-4—5————
———————————
guitar 2:
———————————
———————————
———————————
—6—7—9———6—7—9———

—0—0—0———0—0—0———
guitar 3:
———————————
———————————
————-7————-7—-
————-9————-9—-
————-7————-7—-
———————————
All of that repeats acouple times with some small ad-lib variations on guitars 1 and 2
with things like slides and vibratos until:
guitar 1:

All of that is played throughout the song besides the chorus, which has three more
guitars:

Those 3 guitar parts are a bit different during the lyrics, but the lyrics basically
drown them out, the part I posted was the part between the lyrics. If you want the part
during the lyrics, e-mail me.
And the last guitar parts, guitars 4 and 5 play during the synthesiser, goes like this:
—————————0—0—0—0—0—0—0——————-
—————————0—0—0—0—7—7—7—————7—-
—4—2—0—2—4—6—8—9—8—8—8—8—8—8—8—————8—-
—5—4—2—4—5—7—9—7—9—9—9—9—9—9—9—7—7—7—7—9—-
—————————0—0—0—0—0—0—0——————-
—————————————————————-
There are some not to important parts that I left out that aren`t really even heard, any
questions, comments, or song requests, e-mail [email protected]
