G
Stood there boldly, sweatin’, in the sun
C
Felt like a million, felt like number one
F
The height of summer, I’d
C
never felt that strong
Like a
G
rock
I was eighteen, didn’t have a care
C
Working for peanuts, not a dime to spare
But
F
I was lean and
C
solid everywhere
Like a
G
rock
My hands were steady, my eyes were clear and bright
C
My walk had purpose, my steps were quick and light
And
F
I held firmly to
C
what I felt was right
Like a
G
rock
Like a rock, I was strong as I could be
Like a
C
rock, nothin’, ever got to me
Like a
F
rock, I was
C
something to see
Like a
G
rock
And I
Em
stood arrow straight, unencumbered by the weight
Of all these
G
hustlers and their schemes
I stood
C
proud, I stood tall, high above it all
I
Am
still believed in my dreams
D
G
Twenty years now, where they go?
C
Twenty years, I don’t know
F
I sit and I wonder sometimes
C
Where they’ve
G
gone
And sometimes late at night,
C
when I’m bathed in the firelight
F
The moon comes callin’, a ghostly
C
white
And I re
G
call, I recall
Like a rock, standin’, arrow straight
Like a
C
rock, chargin’, from the gate
Like a
F
rock,
C
carryin’, the weight Like a
G
rock
Like a rock, the sun upon my skin
Like a
C
rock, hard against the wind
Like a
F
rock, I
C
see myself again
Like a
G
rock
Oh like a rock
F
C
