Lee Roy Parnell - The Rock Chords

Verse 1
          G              G7               C
When  you wake up in the morning, and you wonder,
             G           Em               D
Why no one's beside you, where I  usually lay,
        G                  G7               C
And you think you hear the sound of distant thunder,
                     G     D             G
That's just your old rock, thats rolling away,


Chorus:
        C                         C
I was a rock, standing strong for you,
          G
there was nothing I wouldn't do,
              Em    D              G
No matter the cost, I was ready to pay,
        G7        C                G
Now you say I was only holding you down,
              G                           C
Like some old rock, You've  been dragging around,
             G     D               G
Yes I'm your rock, But I'm rolling away

Verse 2
G                 G7            C
I'm rolling away, on a downhill grade,
          G                     Em                    D
I'm gonna come to rest beside a mountain of love some day,
        G                           G7                  C
Cause I finally understand, if your resting on shifting sands,
       G    D            G
even a rock goes rolling away,

Chorus:
        C                         C
I was a rock, standing strong for you,
          G
there was nothing I wouldn't do,
              Em    D              G
No matter the cost, I was ready to pay,
        G7        C                G
Now you say I was only holding you down,
              G                           C
Like some old rock, You've  been dragging around,
             G     D               G
Yes I'm your rock, But I'm rolling away

             G     D               G
Yes I'm your rock, But I'm rolling away
