C G C D7 G I Am A Rock, I am an island. G C G I've built walls, a fortress deep and mighty, Am D7 C G Am hm That none may penetrate. I have no need of friendship; Am hm Am C D Friendship causes pain. It's laughter and it's loving I disdain. C G C D7 G I Am A Rock, I am an island. G C G Don't talk of love, but I've heard the words before; Am D7 C G Am hm Am It's sleeping in my memory. I won't disturb the slumber of feelings hm Am C D That have died. If I never loved I never would have cried. C G C D7 G I Am A Rock, I am an island. G C G I have my books, and my poetry to protect me; Am D7 C G Am hm Am hm I am shielded in my armor, hiding in my room, save within my womb. Am C D I touched no one and no one touches me. C G C D7 G I Am A Rock, I am an island. Am D7 G And a rock feels no pain; Am D7 G And an island never cries! by Franz Felix - Austria/Vienna
