G C G
A winter's day, in a deep and dark december;
Am D7 C G Am Bm Am Bm
I am alone, gazing from my window to the streets below
Am C D
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
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 Bm
That none may penetrate. I have no need of friendship;
Am Bm 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 Bm Am
It's sleeping in my memory. I won't disturb the slumber of feelings
Bm 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 Bm Am Bm
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!
