[Verse 1]
G
I was at Coachella
F
Leaning on your shoulder
C
Watching your husband swing in time
G
I guess I was in it
F
'Cause baby, for a minute
C
It was Woodstock in my mind
G
In the next morning
F
They put out the warning
C
Tensions were rising over country lines
G
I turned off the music
F
Tried to sit and use it
C
All of the love that I saw that night
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am G
'Cause what about all these children
D C
And what about all their parents
Am G
And what about about all their crowns they wear
D C
In hair so long like mine
Am G
And what about all their wishes
D C
Wrapped up like garland roses
Am G
Round their little heads
D C
I said a prayer for a third time
[Chorus]
Em C D
I'd trade it all for a stairway to heaven (a stairway, stairway)
Em C D
I'd take my time for the climb up to the top of it (stairway)
Em C D
I'd trade the fame and the fortune and the legend (stairway)
Am C D
I'd give it all away if you give me just one day to ask him one question
Am C D
I'd give it all away if you give me just one day to ask him one question
[Verse 2]
G
I was at Coachella
F
Leaning on your shoulder
C
Watching your husband swing and shine
G F
I'd say he was hella, cool to win them over
C
Critics can be so mean sometimes
G F C
He was on his knees and I thought he was breaking 'em down with his words and his words divine
G F
Doesn't take a genius to know what you've got going
C
To not want music 'cause they lost their minds
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am G
'Cause what about all these children
D C
And all their children's children
Am G D C
And why am I even wondering that today
Am G
Maybe my contribution
D C
Could be as small as hoping
Am G D C
That words could turn to birds and birds would send my thoughts your way
[Chorus]
Em C D
I'd trade it all for a stairway to heaven (a stairway, stairway)
Em C D
I'd take my time for the climb up to the top of it (stairway)
Em C D
I'd trade the fame and the fortune and the legend (stairway)
Am C D
I'd give it all away if you give me just one day to ask him one question
Am C D
I'd give it all away if you give me just one day to ask him one question
[Outro]
G F C D G F
A stairway, stairway to heaven
C D
A stairway
G F
Got a million things I wanna say
C D
Like what is it all for? Will it be okay?
G F
Million things I wanna say
C D
Like what is it all for?
G F C D G F
Stairway, stairway to heaven
C D
Stairway
G F C D G F
Stairway, stairway to heaven
C D
Stairway
