[Intro] Riff 1 2x
Riff 1
I don't know how I'm going to tell you
Riff 1
I can't play with you no more
Riff 1
I don't know how I'm going to do what mama told me
Riff 1
My friend the boy next door
Riff 1 3x
Riff 1
I can't believe what people saying
Riff 1
You only let your hair down
Riff 1
I'm satisfied to sit here working all day long
Riff 1
You're in the darkest side of town
Riff 1 4x
Riff 1
And when I'm out I see you walking
Riff 1
Why don't your eyes see me
Riff 1
Could it be you've found another game to play
Riff 1
What did mama say to me
Riff 2 Riff 1
That's the way Oh that's the way it ought to be
Riff 2 Riff 3A 2x
Mama said that's the way it ought to stay
Riff 4
Riff 1 1x
Riff 1
And yesterday I saw you standing by the river
Riff 1
And weren't those tears that filled your eyes
Riff 1
And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying
Riff 1
Had they got you hypnotized
Riff 1 4x
Riff 1
And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers
Riff 1
But all that lives is born to die
Riff 1
And so I say to you that nothing really matters
Riff 1
And all you do is stand and cry
Riff 1 4x
Riff 1
I don't know what to say about it
Riff 1
When all your ears are turned away
Riff 1
But now's the time to look and look again at what you see
Riff 1
Is that the way it ought to stay
Riff 2 Riff 1
That's the way That's the way it ought to be Whoa don't you know now
Riff 2 Riff 3B 3x
Mama said mama said that's the way it's going to stay Ahh Ahh
Riff 4
Aaaaaaaaaah Ahhh Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh
Riff 5 until end

Yes, correct.
It's open G, tuned half step down
+4

its definately in open Gb or something because its a 1/2 step down from what the tab says
+3

Oh yeah. and cap'n, you're wrong. Led zepp 3 was practiclly the alternate tuning record for zepp. And this tab sounds perfect for me on the original LP, but the CD seems sped up......
Weird.
