For my chiseled rock god physique

                     A5/E        Dm/F     Am7/E

Will be finally coming true

    Bb        F         Gm     Dm
And no one’ll call me a loser again

   Dm      C    Bb A     Dm
Or tell me what I  can’t do!

     Dm
So I hold my head high and keep strumming those strings,

    C/D
And grab any chance that my destiny brings.

         Dm
And I’ll rise, and I’ll rise, and I’ll rise,

                    Bb
And the wings of my soul

             A7
Up where I belong!!!!!!

         Dm
And I’ll climb to the top of Mountain Rock!

                    C        Dm
And be part of that heavenly scene

     Ab                   Dm
With Odin and Zeus on the bass and the drums

                 Db    Dm
And Thor playing tambourine.

             A5/E      Dm/F       Am7/E
And Amos and Janis and Kurt will appear

    Dm       Am7/E     Dm/F
And Jesus’ll toss me a beer

          Ab             A5   N.C.
And we’ll jam ‘round the clock

                    Dm
At the top of Mount Rock

At the top of Mount Rock!!!!!!!
