Stairway to Heaven (Page-Plant) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven

And when she gets there she knows if the stores are closed
With a word she can get what she came for Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure

And you know sometimes words have two meanings
In the tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven Woe oh oh oh oh oh

And she's buying a stairway to heaven 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 Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven 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 forest will echo with laughter And it makes me wonder 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 Your head is humming and it won't go because you don't know

The piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady can't you hear the wind blow and did you know

Your stairway lies on the whispering wind And as we wind on down the road Our shadows taller than our souls

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
Woe oh oh oh oh oh

And she's buying a stairway to heaven There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
And when she gets there she knows if the stores are closed

With a word she can get what she came for And she's buying a stairway to heaven, uh uh uh

Take me down
To the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home

Just a' urchin
livin' under the street
I'm a hard case
that's tough to beat
I'm your charity case
So buy me somethin' to eat
I'll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line

Ragz to richez or so they say
Ya gotta-keep pushin'
for the fortune and fame
It's all a gamble
When it's just a game
Ya treat it like a capital crime
Everybody's doin' their time

Strapped in the chair
of the city's gas chamber
Why I'm here I can't quite remember
The surgeon general says
it's hazardous to breathe
I'd have another cigarette
but I can't see
Tell me who you're gonna believe

So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away

Captain America's been torn apart
Now he's a court jester
with a broken heart
He said-
Turn me around and
take me back to the start
I must be losin' my mind-
"Are you blind?"
I've seen it all a million times

Words by neil peart, music by geddy lee and alex lifeson

Living on a lighted stage
Approaches the unreal
For those who think and feel
In touch with some reality
Beyond the gilded cage

Cast in this unlikely role,
Ill-equipped to act
With insufficient tact
One must put up barriers
To keep oneself intact

Living in the limelight
The universal dream
For those who wish to seem

Those who wish to be
Must put aside the alienation
Get on with the fascination
The real relation
The underlying theme

Living in a fisheye lens
Caught in the camera eye
I have no heart to lie
I can’t pretend a stranger
Is a long-awaited friend

All the world’s indeed a stage
And we are merely players
Performers and portrayers
Each another’s audience
Outside the gilded cage
