ARCHIVE: led zeppelin - stairway to heaven (intro)

Hourly updated guitar tabs archive



I found an easier way to play this song. 
It sounds just like it, and, like I said, 
it's much easier to play, in my opinion.  
I'm just going to do the intro due to lack of time.  
Enjoy....

Well, that's the end of the intro.  The next few measures are 
almost identical to the intro, so you can probably play this a 
few times before you have to change anything.  I hope I helped 
somebody out.  
Knowing the asses that reply, though, I'll probably have pissed 
more people off than not for trying to make this song a little 
bit more simple.  Anyway, have fun with it.

I'm sorry, but my hand doesn't stretch nearly far enough to play both the Ab and the B. Its crazy. Play it like Led Zep really does the easy way...


ChrisCOOL! February 15, 2003, 6:41 

This tab is so hard to play...why on earth would you choose to do this instead of the "old fashioned way". All you did was move stuff around, you didn't make it any simpler at all


the prick February 16, 2003, 0:46 

i agree, this tab is a waste of time. can anyone hit the e at the 7th fret and the g at the 1st fret? and why would you even do that when you can hit the d at the 6th fret. and to top it all off you said you tried to make this song more simple. this is stairway to heaven man and theres only one way to play. your really helping nobody out by making a great song simple. it should be played as it was wrote


ibanezwonder February 16, 2003, 5:04 

if I wanted to break my hand doing something, I wouldnt try to do it playing this intro you made up. If the goal were to throw as much random things on to a staff and call it stairway to heaven you would get an "a", but since we arent doing that you get and F...do us all a huge favor and stop writing tabs.


Zérocool February 17, 2003, 11:41 

It's better of use the long version it's more funny :o)
Sorry if my english is so badly I'm FRench and no very good for the other languages .


GodIsAthiest February 27, 2003, 0:04 

Look, I agree it's not easy to play, but it does, in fact, sound exactly like Stairway to Heaven. I used this tab, but with a few minor mods, but come on, nobody's perfect, let's not bust the dude's balls.


Sharpy March 14, 2003, 20:03 

I agree with you guys, you would have to snap your index finger and your little finger away from your palm to be able to play this in time


john jacob April 4, 2003, 0:39 

This Is not the right tab for the intro. You cant Play that far anyway Look it up at Guitaretab.com


normal hands April 28, 2003, 1:44 

..Guy i am inpressed by how u do this if u can,.... and if u can u must have some kind of hand mutation... unless u are an ape of some sort... but theres nothin wrong with that.. apeas are cool


Naxos May 28, 2003, 15:32 

Yes that's right, and i agree with all the other comments

so play it like the original version because it's nothing for beginners


sadrac orozco May 30, 2003, 20:36 

It sound nothing like it i even played the song and played my guitar and it does sound like it, and i think i's even harder.


John Doe May 31, 2003, 3:46 

What kind of sh*t is this! What are you Neo from The Matrix. You can't play That! Play it the original way. Just don't mess with Jimmy Page's stuff man.-easier way,- yeah right! I got a cramp on my finger and then I dislocated it just trying to play that crap.


Kagomea June 1, 2003, 3:06 

Sh*t man! look i agree that it does sound pretty good
(only when i played it slowly and VERY carefully not to brake my fingers) but this is impossible for me to play! I have played piano for over 10 years and i admit i kinda have a freakishly long stretch with my fingers, i can stretch my fingers longer than an octave apart on my piano. But damn! It really hurt my fingers to try to even stretch that far on the guitar. And i have been playing guitar and a 5 string bass for about 5 years now. Trust me. Stick to the other version, it is WAY easier than this.


scott Fitch August 4, 2003, 4:58 

wheres the solo? Id like to see you tabb out the solo in variation to the original like you did the intro - you just murdered this song.


John September 28, 2003, 4:08 

i'm sorry dude but this ain't right. it starts on the 7th fret on the fourth string. but that's alright. email me and i'll give you the real thing, including the solo


mike October 1, 2003, 1:26 

look i dont know but my hands they just wont work with me on this i must not have very good hands. but keep ROCKIN ON!!!!!!!!


alex December 9, 2003, 1:22 

dude! i got evry note just fine, and im 14!!! AND ive only been playing 4 about 5 months! so stop whining, and work @ the tabs until it DOES work!!!


jim May 18, 2004, 2:53 

How did you get your fingers on the 7th fRET AND THE 1st in the first line?


R3D May 25, 2004, 4:47 

What the heck are you playing? a ukalele? This is way too hard for me to stretch that far... and here I thought it was the proper way... I'm a beginner, ya... but if a beginner can spot this, it shoudn't even fly...


supersteve June 8, 2004, 6:08 

If u fuckers cant do such a simple things as this, you might as well go into prostitution,(its cheaper in the long run).

Adolf May 4, 2005, 12:47 

Haha. I think you must have tabbed this on a child sized guitar. I am 6 and a half foot tall and while I can reach from the 1st to the 7th, I think it would give me arthritis if I did it for more than a minute.


Ti-guitarman May 7, 2005, 4:05
