Verse 1:

There?s a lady who?s sure,

All that glitters is gold.

If the stores are all closed,

With a word she can get what she came for.

Verse 2:
C D
There?s a sign on the wall,
F Am
But she wants to be sure.
C G Am
?Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.

In a tree by the brook,
F Am
There?s a songbird who sings,
C G Am
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.

Verse 3:
C Am7
There?s a feeling I get,
Am
When I look to the West.
C G Am
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
C Am7
In my thoughts I have seen,
Am
Rings of smoke through the trees,
C G Am
And the voices of those who stand looking.

Verse 4:
C Am7
And it?s whispered that soon,
Am
If we all call the tune,
C G Am
Then the piper will lead us to reason.

And a new day will dawn,

For those who stand long,
C G Am
And the forests will echo with laughter.

Verse 5:
Am G F G
And as we wind on down the road,
Am G F G
Our shadows taller than our souls,
Am G F G
There walks a lady we all know,
Am G F G
Who shines white light and wants to show,
Am G F G
How everything still turns to gold.
Am G F G
And if you listen very hard,
Am G F G
The tune will come to you at last.
Am G F
To be a rock and not a roll.
