(Time signature: 3/4) [Intro] | D | D | G | G | | D | D | G | G | | D | D | G | G | | D | D | G | G | [Verse 1]
       D                        G
Let me say this to you, I'll be steadfast and true

       D               G
And my love will never falter

    D                             G
The sea would crash about us, the waves would lash about us

     D                 G
I'll be your rock of Gibraltar
[Verse 2]
C                               Em
Sometimes it's hard, when we're both caught off guard

            G                D
But there's nothing I'd ever alter

               D                            G
The wind could howl round our ears, for the next thousand years

          D                 G
I'd still be your rock of Gibraltar
[Bridge 1]
          D                 G
Yes, I'll be your rock of Gibraltar

         D                 G
Oh, I'll be your rock of Gibraltar
[Verse 3]
          D                           G
Well, the best thing I'd done, was to make you the one

    D                       G
I'd walk with down to the altar

          D                 G
And you'd stand by me and together we'd be

     D                       G
That great, steady rock of Gibraltar
[Bridge 2]
         D                       G
Yes, the great, steady rock of Gibraltar

        D                       G
Oh, the great, steady rock of Gibraltar
[Verse 4]
        C                   Em
Under a big yellow moon, on our honeymoon

  G                        D
I took you on a trip to Malta

    D                               G
And all through the night, well, ya held me so tight

     D                       G
Your great, steady rock of Gibraltar
[Bridge 3]
         D                       G
Oh, your great, steady rock of Gibraltar

           D                       G
Yeah, your great, steady rock of Gibraltar
[Verse 5]
          C               Em
Could the powers that be, ever foresee?

     G                       D
That things could so utterly alter

        D                              G
All the plans that we laid, they could soon be betrayed

  D                         G
Betrayed like the rock of Gibraltar
[Closing Bridge]
  D                          G
Betrayed like the rock of Gibraltar

       D                         C            D
Yes, betrayed like the rock of Gibra-a-a-a-al-tar
