This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Yet another of the great songs from the Coverdale/Page album.

Again, I can only take credit for a few corrections and additions,

Chuck Horowitz gets the rest (Chuck, I'm indebted to you for

life). I absolutely love this one -- but remember to retune

your guitar...

Coverdale/Page - Over Now

Page's sounds and various tricks but this one its pretty good.

4- D

6- D

And return to the main riff.

One note, after the fourth verse and through the end of the song,

that really weird effect is a whammy pedal, an octavia, and a vintage wah

running in series.
