Stairway to Heaven


There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
  -3   -4 4 -4  -3    -4  -3   -4   5  -5   4  -3

And she's buying a stairway to heaven
 5  -5    6  -5  4  -4  -3  3  3 -3 -3

When she gets there she knows if the stores are all closed
 -3  -4   4    -4   -3   -4   -3  -4    5   -5   4   -3

With a word she can get what she came for
 5  -5  6   -5   4  -4   -3   3  3 -3 -3

Oooh,    Oooh
5 6 -5  -5  4 -4  4 -3

And she's buying a stairway to heaven
-3   -4   5 -5 6 -5 -5 5 -4  3 3 -3 -3


There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
  -3   -4   4  -4 -3 -4 -3 -3  -4    5   -5  4  -3

'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
   5   -5   6    -5   4    -4    -3   3   3 -3 -3

In a tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings
-3 -4  5  -5  4   -4     -3   -4   5  -5   4   -3

Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
  5  -5    6  -5  4    -4     -3  3  3 -3 -3


Oooh, makes me wonder
 4     -4   4  -4 -3

Oooh, makes me wonder
 4     -4   4  -4 -3


There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
  -3   -4  4 -4  -3 -4   -3 -4   5  -5   4  -3

And my spirit is crying for leaving
 5  -5  6 -5   4  -4 -3  3   3 -3 -3

In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
-3 -4     5   -5  4    -4   -3   -4   5     -5     4   -3

And the voices of those who stand looking
 5  -5   6 -5  4  -4    -3    3  3 -3 -3


Oooh, makes me wonder
 4     -4   4  -4 -3

Oooh, makes me wonder
 4     -4   4  -4 -3


And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
-3   -4    5  -5    4    -4  -3 -4  5   -5   4  -3

Then the piper will lead us to reason
 5   -5  6  -5   5   -4  -3  3 3 -3 -3

And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
-3 -4  5   -5   4   -4  -4    5   -5    4   -3

And the forests will echo with laughter
 5   -5  6  -5    5   6    -5   4  3  -3


Woah ...
 5 -5  5 -5  5 -5  5 -5  5   -4 -3


If there's a bustle in your hedgerow don't be alarmed now
 6   -5    5 -5  4  -3  3    -3   4   -3   -3  3  -3   2

It's just a spring clean for the May Queen
  4   4   6   -5     4    -3  3   4   -3

Yes, there are two paths you can go by but in the long run
 6    -5    5  -5   4    -3   3  -3  4 -3  -3  3   -3   2

And there's still time to change the road you're on
-3    4       6    -5  -4   4     -3  4    -3    -3


And it makes me wonder
 -5  5  -5   -5  5  5

Oooh ...
  6   -5  4 -4  4


Your head is hummin' and it won't go in case you don't know
 6   -5   5  -5  4   -3   3  -3   4  -3  -3   3   -3    2

The piper's calling you to join him
 4   4  6    -5  4  -3   3   4  -3

Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow and did you know
 6  -5  5  -5   4   -3   3   -3   4   -3   3   -3   2

Your stairway lies on the whisp'ring wind, Ohhh
 4    4   6   -5   4  -3   4   -3    -3    -4  5 -5 -4




Ahhh, ahhh [4 times]
8 -8  8 -7


And as we wind on down the road
 -7 -7 -7  8   -8  -7   7   -7

Our shadow's taller than our soul
 -7 -7  -7   8  -8   -7  -8  -8 -7

There walks a lady we all know
 -7    -7  -7 10 -9 8 -8  -8 8 -8 -7

Who shines white light and wants to show
 -7   -7    -7    10   -9    8   -8 -8 -7

How everything still turns to gold
 -7  -7 -7  8   -8    -7   -8 -8 -7

And if you listen very hard
 -7 -7  -7  8 -8  -7 -8 -8 -7

The tune will come to you at last
 -7  -7   -7   8   -8 -7  7   -7

When all are one and one is all,   yeah
 -7  -7  -7  10  -9   9  -9 10 -9  8 -7

To be a rock and not to roll
-7 -7 -7  8  -8   8   8   8


And she's buying a stairway    to heaven
 5   -5   6 -5 5 -4 4 -4 -3 3   3  4  3 -3
