Lee Roy Parnell - The Rock
                         


(verse 1)

G                         G7                C
When  you wake up in the morning, and you wonder,
G                                Em      D
Why no one's beside you, where I usually lay,
G                          G7                   C
And  you think you hear the sound of distance thunder,
                  G     D         G            
That's just your old rock, rolling away,



(chorus) 
    
            C
I was your rock, standing strong for you,
            G                       
there  was nothing I wouldn't do,
                Em   D      G          G7
No  matter the cost, I  was ready to  pay,
                      C
Now  you say I'm only holding you  down,
                G                           C
Like some old  rock, You've  been dragging around,
               G    D                  G
Yes I'm your  rock, But  I'm rolling away,



(verse 2)

G     G7                          C
I'm rolling away, on a downhill grade,
G                                           Em        D
I'm gonna come to rest side a mountain  of love some  day,
G                                     G7                  C
Cause I finally understand, if your resting on shifting sands,  
     G     D               G
even a rock goes rolling away,


(chorus)     
            C
I was your rock, standing strong for you,
            G                       
There  was nothing I wouldn't do,
                Em   D      G          G7
No  matter the cost, I  was ready to  pay,
                      C
Now  you say I'm only holding you  down,
                 G                             C
Like  some old  rock, You've  been dragging  around,
                G    D                   G
Yes  I'm your  rock, But  I'm rolling  away,
                G    D                   G
Yes  I'm your  rock, But  I'm rolling  away,
