Led Zeppelin - Stairway To Heaven

"Stairway to Heaven" is a song composed by Led Zeppelin band guitarist Jimmy Page and lead singer Robert Plant and released on November 8, 1971 by Atlantic Records. The song "Stairway to Heaven" is is on the Led Zeppelin IV album. Click for more

"Stairway to Heaven" starts at a slow tempo with acoustic guitar and then continues with the participation of mellotron and flute. The song, which continues at a calm tempo, leaves its place to tension with the quarter note drum introduction of the band's drummer John Bonham, and soon the tempo increases with Jimmy Page's solo. After the seventh minute, the song turns into a heavy metal song. In the finale, all instruments fall silent and it ends with Robert Plant's plaintive a cappella line.

"And she's buying a stairway to heaven"

I think "Stairway to Heaven" is one of the best rock songs ever. If the entire Classic Rock genre had to be reduced to one song, this would probably be it. "Stairway to Heaven" is one of the truly great works in my opinion and one of the songs I never get tired of listening to. Great works never get old.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to Heaven
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to Heaven
There's a sign on the wall, but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven

[Chorus]
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, makes me wonder

[Verse 2]
There's a feeling I get when I look to the West
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking

[Chorus]
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, really makes me wonder

[Verse 3]
And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter

[Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-woahhh

[Verse 4]
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May queen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on

[Chorus]
And it makes me wonder
Ohh, woah

[Verse 5]
Your head is humming, and it won't go, in case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow? And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind?

[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one, and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll

[Outro]
And she's buying a stairway to Heaven
