There´s a lady who´s sure
C/G D/F#
All that glitters is gold
Fmaj7 G Am
And she´s buying a stairway to heaven.
Am Am/G#
When she gets there she knows
C/G D/F#
If the stores are all closed
Fmaj7 G Am
With a word she can get what she came for.
C D F Am C G D
Ooh, ooh, and she´s buying a stairway to heaven.
C D
There´s a sign on the wall
F Am
But she wants to be sure
C D F Am
´Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
C D
In a tree by the brook
F Am
There´s a songbird who sings,
C D F Am
Sometimes all of her thoughts are misgiven.
Am7 D7 Am7 D7
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Am7 D7 Am7 D7
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
C G/B
There´s a feeling I get
Am
When I look to the west,
C G F Am
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
C G/B
In my thoughts I have seen
Am
Rings of smoke through the trees,
C G F Am
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Am7 D7 Am7 D7
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Am7 D7 Am7 D7
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.
C G/B
And it´s whispered that soon
Am
If we all call the tune
C G F Am
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
C G/B
And a new day will dawn
Am
For those who stand long
C G F Am
And the forests will echo with laughter.
C G/B
If there´s a bustle in your hedgerow
Am
Don´t be alarmed now,
C G F Am
It´s just a spring clean for the May queen.
C G/B
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
Am
But in the long run here´s still time
C G F Am
to change the road you´re on, and it makes me wonder.
C G/B
Your head is humming and it won´t go
Am
In case you don´t know,
C G F Am
The piper´s calling you to join him,
C G/B
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
Am
And did you know
C G F Am
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
Am G F G Am
And as we wind on down the road
Am G F G Am
Our shadows taller than our soul.
Am G F G Am
There walks a lady we all know
Am G F G Am
Who shines white light and wants to show
Am G F G Am
How ev´rything still turns to gold.
Am G F G Am
And if you listen very hard
Am G F G Am
The tune will come to you at last.
Am G F G Am
When all are one and one is all
Am G F G Am
To be a rock and not to roll.
Am G F G Am
And she´s buying a stairway to heaven
