Somebody wask asking for help on this song, heres my version


			Houses Of The Holy
	     Words and Music by Jimmy Page and Robert Plant
             From the Recording Physical Graffitti

	     Transcribed by Ted DaCosta


First I'll tab the different guitar parts and then the words

notation    h = hammer on
	    p = pull-off
	    b = bend

Intro
Repeat these first 2 bars twice
e---------------------------------------------------------------------------
e-----------------------|--------------2--2---------------------------------
B-----------------------|--------------2--2---------------------------------
G-------------2--2------|--------2--2--2--2---------------------------------
D----2--2-----2--2----2-|--2-----2--2--2--2---------------------------------

e-----------------------|--------------2--2-2-|-2---------------------------

G-------------2--2------|--------2--2--2--2-2-|-2-------2-2-----------------
D----2--2-----2--2----2-|--2-----2--2--2--2-2-|-2-2-----2-2--2--------------
A----3--4--0--0--0----3-|--4--0--0--0---------|---3-4-0-0-0--3--------------
E-----------------------|---------------------|-----------------------------

                 This chord rings into the next bar for the start of the verse
e-------------2--2----------------------------------------------------------
B-------------2--0----------------------------------------------------------
G-------2-2---2--1----------------------------------------------------------
D--2----2-2---2--2----------------------------------------------------------
A--4--0-0-0-----------------------------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------------------


Note that the chords on the verses sustain a little, but notation wasn't easy
so listen to the record to get the timing and feel.

Verses     D        G  D  A    E

e----------2--|--2--3--2--0-|-----------------------------------------------
B----------3--|--3--3--3--2-|-0-0-------------------------------------------
G----------2--|--2--4--2--2-|-1-1-------------------------------------------
D-------2--0--|--0--0--0--2-|-2-2-------------------------------------------
A---2h4-------|-------------|-----------------------------------------------
E-------------|-------------|-----------------------------------------------

The above is repeated for the verses 4 times.  But the last time no E is
played, instead Jimmy goes back into the intro parts.  Othertimes in the
song he plays the E four times before going back to the intro.  Listen
to the recording to get these changes, it is quite clear.

Note during the song similar riffs to the intro.  The little riff fill goes
something like this.  Note that Jimmy plays variations on the fill.

			  bend from b to c# and then back to b
