Robert Plant - Great Spirit From Fate of Nations Intro E-|-----------------------------| B-|-----------------------------| Play this a few times, varying G-|--5h7--7x--7x--7x--x-x-x-x---| the pattern that you mute the D-|-----------------------------| strings to sound as funky as A-|-----------------------------| possible, and then: D-|-(0)-------------------------| E-|-----------------------------| B-|---------------6--8--6vvv----| G-|--5h7--7x--7x----------------| Then go right back into the D-|-----------------------------| intro, after a few more times, A-|-----------------------------| play: D-|-----------------------------| E-|---------------7b8rb7----(5)---| B-|-----------------------8-(6)---| G-|--5h7--7x--7x-------------7----| D-|-------------------------------| A-|-------------------------------| D-|-------------------------------| As a little aside here, most of the song is centered around two chords, Dm and G. These are the chords you sometimes here being played over these intro parts. If you ever get lost, revert to either using them or playing along with the bass. My suggestions for these are: Dm G Bass Part E-|--5--|------|--------------------------------------| B-|--6--|--12--|--------------------------------------| G-|--7--|--12--|--------------------------------------| D-|--7--|--12--|---------------------5--0-------------| A-|--5--|--10--|----5--0------------------------------| D-|-----|------|----------0--0-0-0---------5--5-5-5---| One of those should get you back on track. Figures 1 and 2 shown below appear again and again throughout the song, listen for where they fit in. And most of the leads (and my attempt at the solo) is based on a Dm pentatonic scale. If you need ideas for the leads, look at the solo.
