Titre   : I Am a Rock

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

C        F               C
A winter's day in a deep and dark December
Dm   G7   F   C
I am alo________ne
Dm             Em7    Dm              Em7
Gazing from my window to the streets below
Dm             F                G
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
C             G   C     Am
I am a rock,  I am an island.


C        F                 C
I've built walls,  a fortress deep and mighty
Dm   G7      F   C
That no____ne may penetrate
Dm               Em7         Dm                Em7
I have no need of friendship, friendship causes pain
Dm           F           G
It's laughter and loving I disdain
C             G   C    Am
I am a rock, I am an island


C                F              C
Don't talk of love, but I've heard the word before
Dm   G7         F   C
It's sleeping in my memory
Dm                Em7            Dm                 Em7
I won't disturb the slumber of the feelings that have died
Dm             F                G
If I never loved I never would have cried
C            G   C    Am
I am a rock, I am an island


C            F            C
I have my books and my poetry to protect me
Dm   G7        F   C
I am shielded in my ar_mor
Dm            Em7   Dm              Em7
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb
Dm               F             G
I touch no one and no one touches me
C             G   C
I am a rock, I am an island


Dm7    G       C           Dm7     G      C
And a rock feels no pain, and an island never cries
