Stairway To Heaven (Led Zeppelin)

Stairway To Heaven

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.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,

Ooh, it makes me wonder.

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 standing looking.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,

Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

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.

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.

And it makes me wonder.

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.

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 ev’rything 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.

And she’s buying a stairway to heaven.

Tangerine (Led Zeppelin)

Tangerine

Measuring a summer’s day,

I only finds it slips away to grey,

The hours, they bring me pain.

*Tangerine, Tangerine,

 Living reflection from a dream;

 I was her love, she was my queen,

 And now a thousand years between.

Thinking how it used to be,

Does she still remember times like these?

To think of us again?

And I do.

* Chorus

Gallows Pole (Led Zeppelin)

Gallows Pole

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,

Think I see my friends coming,

Riding a many mile.

Friends, did you get some silver?

Did you get a little gold?

What did you bring me, my dear friends,

To keep me from the Gallows Pole?

What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?

I couldn’t get no silver, I couldn’t get no gold,

You know that we’re too damn poor

To keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,

I think I see my brother coming,

Riding a many mile.

Brother, did you get me some silver?

Did you get a little gold?

What did you bring me, my brother,

To keep me from the Gallows Pole?

Brother, I brought you some silver,

I brought a little gold,

I brought a little of ev’ry thing

To keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Yes, I brought you to keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Hangman, hangman, turn your head awhile,

I think I see my sister coming,

Riding a many mile, mile, mile.

Sister, I implore you, take him by the hand,

Take him to some shady bower,

Save me from the wrath of this man,

Please take him,

Save me from the wrath of this man, man.

Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile,

Pray tell me that I’m free to ride,

Ride for many mile, mile, mile.

Oh, yes, you got a fine sister,

She warmed my blood from cold,

Brought my blood to boiling hot

To keep you from the Gallows Pole,

Your brother brought me silver,

Your sister warmed my soul,

But now I laugh and pull so hard

And see you swinging on the Gallows Pole

Keep-a-swingin’!

Swingin’ on the gallows pole! Gallows Pole

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,

Think I see my friends coming,

Riding a many mile.

Friends, did you get some silver?

Did you get a little gold?

What did you bring me, my dear friends,

To keep me from the Gallows Pole?

What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?

I couldn’t get no silver, I couldn’t get no gold,

You know that we’re too damn poor

To keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,

I think I see my brother coming,

Riding a many mile.

Brother, did you get me some silver?

Did you get a little gold?

What did you bring me, my brother,

To keep me from the Gallows Pole?

Brother, I brought you some silver,

I brought a little gold,

I brought a little of ev’ry thing

To keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Yes, I brought you to keep you from the Gallows Pole.

Hangman, hangman, turn your head awhile,

I think I see my sister coming,

Riding a many mile, mile, mile.

Sister, I implore you, take him by the hand,

Take him to some shady bower,

Save me from the wrath of this man,

Please take him,

Save me from the wrath of this man, man.

Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile,

Pray tell me that I’m free to ride,

Ride for many mile, mile, mile.

Oh, yes, you got a fine sister,

She warmed my blood from cold,

Brought my blood to boiling hot

To keep you from the Gallows Pole,

Your brother brought me silver,

Your sister warmed my soul,

But now I laugh and pull so hard

And see you swinging on the Gallows Pole

Keep-a-swingin’!

Swingin’ on the gallows pole!

Immigrant Song (Led Zeppelin)

Immigrant Song

Ah, ah,

We come from the land of the ice and snow,

>From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.

The hammer of the gods

Will drive our ships to new lands,

To fight the horde, singing and crying:

Valhalla, I am coming!

On we sweep with threshing oar,

Our only goal will be the western shore.

Ah, ah,

We come from the land of the ice and snow,

>From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.

How soft your fields so green,

Can whisper tales of gore,

Of how we calmed the tides of war.

We are your overlords.

On we sweep with threshing oar,

Our only goal will be the western shore.

So now you’d better stop and rebuild all your ruins,

For peace and trust can win the day

Despite of all your losing.

Since I've Been Loving You (Led Zeppelin)

Since I’ve Been Loving You

Oh!

Workin’ from seven to eleven ev’ry night,

How I love you, darling,

How I love you, baby,

How I love you, girl, little girl.

But baby, Since I’ve Been Loving You, yeah,

Don’t you hear them falling?

Don’t you hear them?

Do you remember, mama, when I knocked upon your door?

I said you had the nerve to tell me

You didn’t want me no more, yeah

I open my front door, hear my back door slam,

You must have one of them new fangled,

New fangled back door man,

I’ve been working from seven, seven, seven,

To eleven ev’ry night,

It kinda makes my life a drag, a drag, drag,

Ah, yeah, it makes a drag.

Baby, Since I’ve Been Loving You,

I’m about to lose,

I’m about to lose, lose my worried mind.

Just one more!

Oh yeah

Since I’ve Been Loving You, I’m about to lose my worried mind.
