[Capo on 1st fret]
SOL DO SOL DO
SOL
Stood there boldly sweatin' in the sun
DO
Felt like a million, felt like number one
FA DO
The height of summer, I'd never felt that strong
SOL
Like a rock.
SOL
I was eighteen, didn't have a care
DO
Workin' for peanuts, not a dime to spare
FA DO
But I was lean and solid everywhere
SOL
Like a rock.
SOL
My hands were steady, my eyes were clear and bright
DO
My walk had purpose, my steps were quick and light
FA DO
And I held firm to what I felt was right
SOL
Like a rock.
SOL
Like a rock - I was strong as I could be
DO
Like a rock - nothin' ever got to me
FA DO
Like a rock - I was something to see
SOL
Like a rock.
MIm
And I stood arrow straight, unencumbered by the weight
SOL
Of all these hustlers and their schemes
DO
I stood proud, I stood tall, high above it all
LAm RE
I still believed in my dreams.
[SOLO]
SOL
Twenty years now, where'd they go
DO
Twenty years - I don't know
FA DO SOL
I sit and I wonder sometimes where they've gone
SOL DO
And sometimes late at night - oh when I'm bathed in the firelight
FA DO
The moon comes callin' a ghostly white
And I recall, I recall.
SOL
Like a rock - standin' arrow straight
DO
Like a rock - chargin' from the gate
FA DO
Like a rock - carryin' the weight
SOL
Like a rock.
SOL
Like a rock - the sun upon my skin
DO
Like a rock - hard against the wind
FA DO
Like a rock - I see myself again
SOL
Like a rock,
Oh, like a rock.
[SOLO]
