We have an official Hey Hey What Can I Do tab made by UG professional guitarists.
Check out the tab
Standard E tuning (E,A,D,G,B,e)   it can be played with a capo on the first fret if you want to
 mess around with a different sound.
 this is my first tab so i hope it helps

throw in some hammer on and pull offs on the A string if your playing alone
basically to make up for not having a bass

        ^that would be the chorus^
 
thats roughly the song, i think the chorus is a little off
 but my immature skills cant comprehend what jimmy page does,
but i think its pretty good compared to other tabs tho.
there are mandolin parts that other tabs have
 transcribed for guitar but i didnt wanna steal
 there tabs so i left the mandolin out. hope it helps

this tab is correct, if you play in standard tuning (EADGBe) - he even has the opening rff, which most tabs at UG don't have. Good on ya!

It's in the tuning of DGCFAD. And the strum pattern for the verse is A-E-G-D.
