Lady Gaga has unveiled her cover of "Your Song," off the Elton John tribute album, Revamp & Restoration, which is out April 6.

On her cover of the track, Mother Monster keeps her rendition on the minimal side to make her way through the piano-charged instrumentation. Throughout the cut, Gaga lets her vocals soar high.

The pair previously performed the 1970 staple together during a medley performance at the 2010 Grammy Awards. Expect to see the pop star offer up another rendition of "Your Song" in classic Elton shades during his upcoming all-star Grammy tribute, I'm Still Standing, which is set to premiere April 10.

While Revamp will feature cover tracks from the likes of Gaga, Miley Cyrus, P!NK, Demi Lovato, Mary J. Blige and more, Restoration will hear tracks covered by country titans like Stapleton, Miranda Lambert, and Maren Morris.

"It's always a huge compliment when an artist loves your song enough to take the time and effort to rework it," John said, in a statement. "As songwriters, Bernie [Taupin] and myself are thrilled when singers we admire and respect as much as those on Revamp & Restoration choose to add their own unique twist in the process.

"It means that our music is still relevant and ultimately that our songs continue to reach new audiences. We're humbled."

It's an appropriate time for the release, considering that John announced that he will retire from touring at the conclusion of his upcoming 300-date Farewell, Yellow Brick Road World Tour.
