RAMBLE ON
By: Jimmy Page, Robert Plant
Led Zeppelin
Key: E

  -4   -4   -4  -4  -4 -4  -4
Leaves are fall-ing all a-round, 
 -4 -4 -4  6  -4 -33
Time I was on my way. 
  -4   -4 -4   -4   -4 -4   -4
Thanks to you, I'm much o-bliged 
-4   -4 -4   6   -4 -4-33
For such a pleas-ant stay. 
-4  -4  -4    6   -4  -3 3  -3
But now it's time for me to go, 
 2  -4  -4   -4    -4   -4 -4
The au-tumn moon lights my way. 
-4  -8 -8   -8  -7    7
But now I smell the rain, 
7    -8  -7  7
And with it pain, 
-8   -8   -8  -7 7* 6-5
And it's head-ed my way. 
-3   -3   -3  -3  -4  -3   3*
Ah, some-times I grow so tired, 
-7 -7  -7   7*   -7   7*  -7  7* -8
But I know one thing I’ve got to do, 

-8  -8 -77
Ram-ble On, 
 7*  -7   -7   -7   -7   -7  -7  7
And now's the time, the time is now 
6   -8  -8 -7 7
To sing my song. 
-5  -5 -4    -8   -8   -7
I'm go-in' 'round the world, 
-7 -7 -7  -7 -7 -7 7  -8 -8 -77  
I got-ta find a girl, on my way. 
 6    -8   6    7*  6   7*   6  -5   6
I’ve been this way ten years to the day,  
-8  -8 -77
Ram-ble On, 
 -8  -8   -7   -7  7  7   7-6*
find the queen of all my dreams. 

-8  -8  -8  -8  -8   -4   -4
Got no time to spend in route 
-4   -4  -4   -4  6  -4 –3 3
The time has come to be gone. 
-4    -4   -4   -4    -4   -4 
And though our health we drank 
-4  -4  -4   -4
a thous-and times, 
 -4   -4  -4  6  -4 -4-33
It’s time to Ram-ble On. 

-8  -8 -77
Ram-ble On, 
 7*  -7   -7   -7   -7   -7  -7  7
And now's the time, the time is now 
6   -8  -8 -7 7
To sing my song. 
-5  -5 -4    -8   -8   -7
I'm go-in' 'round the world, 
-7 -7 -7  -7 -7 -7 7  -8 -8 -77  
I got-ta find a girl, on my way. 
 6    -8   6    7*  6   7*   6  -5   6
I’ve been this way ten years to the day,  
-8  -8 -77
Ram-ble On, 
 -8  -8   -7   -7  7  7   7-6*
find the queen of all my dreams. 
 
  -4  -4  -4   -4   -4   -4  -4 
Mine's a tale that can't be told, 
-4  -4  -4  6  -4  -3 3
My free-dom I hold dear; 
-4    -4 -4 -4 -4  -4  -4 -4
How years a-go in days of old 
 -4  -4  -4   6    -4 -4-33
When mag-ic filled the air, 
 -4   -4 -4    6  -4    -3   3  -3   3
T'was in the dark-est depths of Mor-dor 
2 -4 -4  -4  -4  -4
I met a girl so fair, 
-4  -8  -8   -7  7  7 -8-7   7   7
But Gol-lum, the e-vil one crept up 
-8    -8   -8 -7   7*  6-5  
And slipped a-way with her. 

 -3    -3  -3 -4 -3  3*
Ain't noth-ing I can do. 
-7  7*   -7   7*  -8
I guess I’ll keep on

-8  -8 -77
Ram-ble On, 
 7*  -7   -7   -7   -7   -7  -7  7
And now's the time, the time is now 
6   -8  -8 -7 7
To sing my song. 
-5  -5 -4    -8   -8   -7
I'm go-in' 'round the world, 
-7 -7 -7  -7 -7 -7 7  -8 -8 -77  
I got-ta find a girl, on my way. 
 6    -8   6    7*  6   7*   6  -5   6
I’ve been this way ten years to the day,  
-8  -8 -77
Ram-ble On, 
 -8  -8   -7   -7  7  7   7-6*
find the queen of all my dreams.
