Am   D   C  G 
   I am alone 
Am             Bm     Am               Bm 
Gazing from my window to the streets below 
     Am             C                D 
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow 
         G 
I am a rock 
        D G 
I am an island 
           G       C/G                 G 
I've built walls a fortress deep and mighty 
     Am   D   C   G 
That none may penetrate 
  Am               Bm         Am                Bm 
I have no need for friendship friendship causes pain 
     Am                C           D 
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain 
         G 
I am a rock 
        D G 
I am an island 

Don't talk of love well I've heard the word before 
It's sleeping in my memory 
I won't disturb the slumber of 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 armor 
Hiding in my room safe within my womb 
I touch no one and no one touches me 

I am a rock 
I am an island 

   C   D   G                 C   D      G
