v.1
There's a ^Amlady who's sure all that glitters is ^Dgold
And she's ^F6buying a stairway to ^Ghea^Amven
When she ^Amgets there she knows if the stores are ^Dclosed
With a ^F6word she can get what she ^Gcame ^Amfor
^COoh^D--F6--Am... and she's ^Cbuying a ^Gstairway to ^Dheaven

There's a ^Csign on the ^Dwall, but she ^F6wants to be ^Amsure
Cause you ^Cknow sometimes ^Gwords have two ^F6meanings
In a ^Ctree by the ^Dbrook there's a ^F6songbird who ^Amsings
Sometimes ^Call of our ^Gthoughts are mis^F6given
^Am7Ooh, ^Dsus--Dit makes me wonder [2t]
v.2
There's a ^Cfeeling I ^Gget when I ^Amlook to the west
And my ^Cspirit is ^Gcryin for ^Fleav^Amin'
In my ^Cthoughts I have ^Gseen rings of ^Amsmoke through the trees
And the ^Cvoices of ^Gthose who stand ^Flook^Aming
Ooh, it makes me wonder [2t]
v.3
And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And the new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forest will echo with laughter

Refrain:
^CIf there's a ^Gbustle in your ^Amhedgerow, don't be alarmed now
^CIt's just a ^Gspring clean for the ^FMay ^AmQueen
^CYes there are ^Gtwo paths you can ^Amgo by, but in the long run
^CThere's still ^Gtime to change the ^Froad ^Amyou're on
And it makes me wonder...

Your head is hummin' and it won't go, in case you don't know
The piper's callin' you to join him
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind
^AmOh^G--D...

v.4
^AmAnd as we ^Gwind on down the ^Froad^G
AmOur shadows ^Gtaller than our ^Fsouls^G
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines bright light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold

And if you listen very hard
The truth will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all, yeah, yeah
To be a rock, and not to roll...
And she's buying a stairway to heaven...
