I Am A Rock
Simon & Garfunkel
| C | F | C |
| A winter's day- in a | deep and dark De | cember |
| Dm7 | Em7 | Dm7 | Em7 |
| Gazing from my | window | to the streets be | low |
| Dm | F | G |
| On a | freshly fallen | silent shroud of | snow. |
| F | C | F | G | C | Am |
| I am a | rock, | I am an | is | land. | |
| I've built walls, A fortress deep and mighty, | |
| I have no need of friendship, friendship causes pain | |
| It's laughter and loving I disdain: | |
| I am a rock, I am an island. | |
| Don't talk of love - But I've heard the word before: | |
| It's sleeping in my memory; | |
| I won't disturb the slumber of the feelings that have died, | |
| If I never loved I never would have cried! | |
| I am a rock, I am an island. | |
| I have my books - And my poetry to protect me. | |
| I am shielded in my armour. | |
| Hiding in my room, safe within my womb, | |
| I touch no one and no one touches me. | |
| F | C | F | G | C |
| I am a | rock, | I am an | is | land. |
| Dm7 | G | C | Dm7 | G | C |
| And a | rock | feels no | pain, and an | island | never | cries. |
