[Intro]

      |             |  |     


[Verse]

       
There's a lady

      
 who's sure al

           
l that glitter

     
s is gold
           
And she's buyi

            
ng a stairway 

     
to heaven.
       
When she gets 

         
there she know

/        
s, if the stor

            
es are all clo


sed
         
With a word sh

              
e can get what

          
 she came for.
         
 Oooh, oh  ooo

          
h  ooh ooh ooh

             
  and she's bu

             
ying a stairwa

    
y to heaven.

(      
There's a sign

            
 on the wall b

         
ut she wants t

    
o be sure
           
'Cause you kno

           
w sometimes wo

             
rds have two m


eanings.
       
In a tree by t

      
he brook, ther

           
e's a songbird

     
 who sings,
             
Sometimes all 

             
of our thought

          
s are misgiven

.


[Bridge]

       
              

          
   Ooh, it mak

                    
es me wonder,
       
              

          
   Ooh, it mak

                    
es me wonder.


[Verse]

             
There's a feel

           
ing I get when

     
 I look to the

 west,
             
And my spirit 

          
is crying for 

  
leaving.
             
In my thoughts

           
 I have seen r

         
ings of smoke 

              
through the tr


ees,
             
And the voices

           
 of those who 

        
stand looking.


[Bridge]

       
              

          
   Ooh, it mak

                    
es me wonder,
       
              

          
   Ooh, it rea

             
lly makes me w

             
onder.


[Verse]

             
And it's whisp

           
ered that soon

        
 if we all cal


l the tune
             
Then the piper

           
 will lead us 

   
to reason.
             
And a new day 

           
will dawn for 

  
those who stan

d long
             
And the forest

           
s will echo wi

   
th laughter.


[Bridge]

                                     
                                     


            
If there's a b

/            
ustle in your 

            
hedgerow, don'

     
t be alarmed n

ow,
           
It's just a sp

             
ring clean for

      
 the May queen

.
             
Yes, there are

           
 two paths you

            
 can go by, bu

        
t in the long 

run
             
There's still 

           
time to change

         
 the road you'

 
re on.


[Bridge]

       
              

          
   Ooh, it mak

                    
es me wonder,
       
              

          
   Ooh, it rea

             
lly makes me w

             
onder.


[Verse]

            
Your head is h

/            
umming and it 

            
won't go, in c

        
ase you don't 

know,
           
The piper's ca

           
lling you to j

  
oin him,
          
Dear lady, can

              
 you hear the 

            
wind blow, and

       
 did you know
             
Your stairway 

         
lies on the wh

      
ispering wind.


[Instrumental]

               
                     

  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  


[Verse]

           
And as we wind

             
 on down the r

     
oad
           
Our shadows ta

             
ller than our 

     
soul.
            
There walks a 

            
lady we all kn

     
ow
            
Who shines whi

             
te light and w

            
ants to show
           
How everything

              
 still turns t

       
o gold.
           
And if you lis

               
ten very hard
           
The tune will 

              
come to you at

       
 last.
           
When all are o

              
ne and one is 

      
all
           
To be a rock a

             
nd not to roll

    
.


[Instrumental]

  


And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
