the 77's
Nobody's Fault But Mine

by Led Zeppelin (Robert Plant and Jimmy Page)

Ver.1

The intro is double-tracked and played in two octaves.
Its also heavily flanged.  Here's the lower octave:

e---------------------------------------------------------------------------
b--3p0-0-3p0-0-3-3^5--3p0-0-3p0-0---------3p0-0-3-3^5-3-0-------------------
g----------------------------------0-2^4------------------2-0---------------
d---------------------------------------------------------------------------
a---------------------------------------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------------------


e---------------------------------------------------------------------------
b---------------------------------------------------------------------------
g-2p1-1-2p1-1-2-2^4^2p1--2--------------------------------------------------
d------------------------2--------------------------------------------------
a------------------------1--------------------------------------------------
E------------------------0--------------------------------------------------


And the intro riff to the lyrics part:


e---------------------------------------------------------------------------
b---------------------------------------------------------------------------
g---------------------------------------------2-----------------------------
d--2p0-0--------------2-----9\7-7-7\4-4-------2-----------------------------
a---------2p0-0-------2-----7\5-5-5\2-2-------0-----------------------------
E----------------3^4--0------------------3^4--------------------------------



And the main rythym:


e---------------------------------------------------------------------------
b---------------------------9--9---------------------9-9-9-10-9-10-9--------
g--7--------7---------------9--9---7------7----------9-9-9-9--9-9--9--------
d--0--7--7--0--7--7---------9--9---0-7-7--0--7-------9-9-9-11-9-11-9--------
a-----0--0-----0--0---5--7--7--7-----0-0-----0--10h11-----------------------
E------------------------0-----0--------------------------------------------


and the ascending chords at the end of each bar(?)


e---------------------------------------------------------------------------
b---------------------------------------------------------------------------
g---------------------------------------------------------------------------
d--2-2--4-4--5-5--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-----------------------------------------
a--2-2--4-4--5-5--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-----------------------------------------
E--0-0--2-2--3-3--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-----------------------------------------


The solo's kind of tough and I really dont remember it.


Heres the ending sequence of the song:


e---------------------------------------------------------------------------
b---------------------------------------------------------------------------
g---------------------------------------------------------------------------
d-------------------------------------------2-2-2---------------------------
a-14\12-12-12-12\9-9-9-9-9\7-7-7-7-7\5------2-2-2---------------------------
E-12\10-10-10-10\7-7-7-7-7\5-5-5-5-5\3-3^4--0-0-0---------------------------


Enjoy!

     Well that's basically it.  The next couple of times through there
is a few percussive notes here and there, most notably 1 percussive

    I'll check the original notes when I go home and post any
corrections if need be.  Otherwise, this is the way she is folks. 
Only a few conditions regarding this post:
                                   
                  (1) learn the riff
                  (2) play it everywhere
                  (3) show others how to play it
                  (4) enjoy the music  
                  (5) tell everyone it was written by Jimmy Page



    "....I'm so happy, I wanna join the band, we're gonna sing and     
     dance in celebration, 'cause we're in the Promised Land...."

rhythm
parts, and the solo. The key is A.

The 77's Lyrics
(By Blind Willie Johnson)
[As best I can desern them]


Aah aah aah aah, (et)


Oooo, It's nobody's fault but mine
It's nobody's fault but mine
If I don't keep my soul alive
Its nobodies fault but mine


The devil he told me to roam
The devil he told me to roam, roam, roam
I've been a roamin' into the night
Well, It's nobody's fault but mine


ah.....


I've got a Bible in my house
I've got a Bible in my house
If I don't read it and my soul dies
Well, It's nobody's fault but mine


My sister she told me to read it
My sister she told me to read, read, read
I didn't read it, lost the light
Well, It's nobody's fault but mine


ah.....


If I don't keep my soul alive
Well, No No No Nobody's Fault
