I AM A ROCK As recorded by The Hollies
(From the 1965 Album WOULD YOU BELIEVE?)
[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
E A E A winter's day in a deep and dark December F#m B A E I am alone F#m B F#m B Gazing from my window to the street below F#m A B On a freshly fallen , silent shroud of snow
[Chorus]
E B E C#m I am a rock I am an island
[Verse 2]
E I build walls A E A fortress deep and mighty F#m B A E That none may penetrate F#m B I have no need of friendship F#m B Friendship causes pain F#m A B It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
[Chorus]
E B E C#m I am a rock I am an island
[Verse 3]
E Don't talk of love A E Well, I've heard the word before F#m B A E It's sleeping in my memory F#m B I won't disturb the slumber F#m B Of feelings that have died F#m A B If I never loved, I never would have cried
[Chorus]
E B E C#m I am a rock I am an island
[Verse 4]
E I have my books A E And my poetry to protect me F#m B A E I am shielded in my armor F#m B F#m B Hiding in my room, safe within my womb F#m A B I touch no one and no one touches me
[Chorus]
E B E I am a rock I am an island
[Bridge]
E A E And a rock feels no pain A B E And an island never cries
[Out-Chorus]
E B E I am a rock I am an island F#m B E I am a rock I am an island
