G
Stood there boldly sweatin' in the sun

C
Felt like a million, felt like number one

F                         C
The height of summer, I'd never felt that strong

       G
Like a rock.

G
I was eighteen, didn't have a care

C
Workin' for peanuts, not a dime to spare

F                  C
But I was lean and solid everywhere

       G
Like a rock.

G
My hands were steady, my eyes were clear and bright

C
My walk had purpose, my steps were quick and light

F                  C
And I held firm to what I felt was right

       G
Like a rock.

       G
Like a rock - I was strong as I could be

       C
Like a rock - nothin' ever got to me

       F            C
Like a rock - I was something to see

       G
Like a rock.

      Em
And I stood arrow straight, unencumbered by the weight

             G
Of all these hustlers and their schemes

        C
I stood proud, I stood tall, high above it all

  Am                   D
I still believed in my dreams.
[SOLO]
G
Twenty years now, where'd they go

C
Twenty years - I don't know

F                           C              G
I sit and I wonder sometimes where they've gone

    G                       C
And sometimes late at night - oh when I'm bathed in the firelight

F                                C
The moon comes callin' a ghostly white
And I recall, I recall.
       G
Like a rock - standin' arrow straight

       C
Like a rock - chargin' from the gate

       F      C
Like a rock - carryin' the weight

       G
Like a rock.

       G
Like a rock - the sun upon my skin

       C
Like a rock - hard against the wind

       F               C
Like a rock - I see myself again

       G
Like a rock,
Oh, like a rock. [SOLO] -- [email protected]
