Bm
Thereʼs a lady whoʼs sure
DE
All that glitters is gold
GABm
And sheʼs buying a stairway to heaven.
Bm
When she gets there she knows
DE
If the stores are all closed
GABm
With a word she can get what she came for.
DEGBmDAE
Ooh, ooh, and sheʼs buying a stairway to heaven.
DE
Thereʼs a sign on the wall
GBm
But she wants to be sure
DEGBm
ʼCause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
DE
In a tree by the brook
GBm
Thereʼs a songbird who sings,
DEGBm
Sometimes all of her thoughts are misgiven.
Bm7E7Bm7E7
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Bm7E7Bm7E7
Ooh, it makes me wonder.
DA
Thereʼs a feeling I get
Bm
When I look to the west,
DAGBm
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
DA
In my thoughts I have seen
Bm
Rings of smoke through the trees,
DAGBm
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Bm7E7Bm7E7
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Bm7E7Bm7E7
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.
DA
And itʼs whispered that soon
Bm
If we all call the tune
DAGBm
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
DA
And a new day will dawn
Bm
For those who stand long
DAGBm
And the forests will echo with laughter.
DA
If thereʼs a bustle in your hedgerow
Bm
Donʼt be alarmed now,
DAGBm
Itʼs just a spring clean for the May queen.
DA
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
Bm
But in the long run hereʼs still time
DAGBm
to change the road youʼre on, and it makes me wonder.
DA
Your head is humming and it wonʼt go
Bm
In case you donʼt know,
DAGBm
The piperʼs calling you to join him,
DA
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
Bm
And did you know
DAGBm
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
BmAGABm
And as we wind on down the road
BmAGABm
Our shadows taller than our soul.
BmAGABm
There walks a lady we all know
BmAGABm
Who shines white light and wants to show
BmAGABm
How evʼrything still turns to gold.
BmAGABm
And if you listen very hard
BmAGABm
The tune will come to you at last.
BmAGABm
When all are one and one is all
BmAGABm
To be a rock and not to roll.
BmAGABm
And sheʼs buying a stairway to heaven
