[Verse 1]
There's a Amlady who's C/G#sure all that C/Gglitters is D/F#gold
And she's Fmaj7buying the stairway to hGeavAmen.
When she Amgets there she C/G#knows, if the C/Gstores are all D/F#closed
With a Fmaj7word she can get what she Gcame Amfor.
COoDh, Fmaj7ooh, Amand she's Cbuying the Gstairway to Dsus4heavenD.
There's a Csign on the Dwall but she Fmaj7wants to be Amsure
'Cause you Cknow sometimes Dwords have two Fmaj7meanings.
In a Amtree by the C/G#brook, there's a C/Gsongbird who D/F#sings,
Sometimes Fmaj7all of our thoughts are misGgivAmen.

(use a Am G F G barre chord sequence)
AmAnd as we Gwind on down the Froad G  
AmOur shadows Gtaller than our Fsoul G  
AmThere walks the Glady we all Fknow G  
AmWho shines white Glight and wants to FshowG  
Amhow everythGing still turns to Fgold G  
AmAnd if you Glisten very Fhard G  
Amthe tune will Gcome to you at Flast G  
AmWhen all are Gone and one is Fall G  
AmTo be a Grock and not to Froll.G..
