A while ago I noticed the lyrics on my Led Zeppelin poster had a clearly iambic meter. I've been trying to figure out the rest of the song's meter but I figured I'd just put this up for now. I'm having trouble making this post with the unaccented and accented symbols so I just separated the feet and assumed people understand how iambs work.
And as | we wind | on down | the road
Our sha|dows tall|er than | our soul
There walks | a la|dy we | all know
Who shines | white light | and wants | to show
How eve|ry thing | still turns | to gold
And if | you li|sten ve|ry hard
The truth | will come | to you | at last
When all | are one | and one | is all
To be | a rock | and not | to roll
