Intro: C
C F C
A winter's day in a deep and dark December
Dm G F C
I am alone
Dm G Dm G
Gazing from my window to the streets below
Dm F G
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
C G C Am
I am a rock, I am an is-land
C F C
I've built walls, a fortress deep and mighty
Dm G F C
That none may penetrate
Dm G Dm G
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain
Dm F G
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
C G C Am
I am a rock, I am an is-land
C F C
Don't talk of love, but I've heard the words before
Dm G F C
It's sleeping in my memory
Dm G Dm G
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
Dm F G
If I never loved I never would have cried
C G C Am
I am a rock, I am an is-land
C F C
I have my books and my poetry to protect me
Dm G F C
I am shielded in my armor
Dm G Dm G
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb
Dm F G
I touch no one and no one touches me
C G C Am
I am a rock, I am an is-land
F Em C
And a rock feels no pain
F Em C
and an island never cries
