Capo 1
Tonality
D
A winterʼs day
GD
In a deep and dark December;
EmAGD
I am alone,
EmAEmA
Gazing from my window to the streets below
EmGA
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
D
I am a rock,
AD
I am an is-land.
D
Iʼve built walls,
GD
A fortress deep and mighty,
EmAGD
That none may penetrate.
EmAEmA
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
EmGA
Itʼs laughter and itʼs loving I disdain.
D
I am a rock,
AD
I am an is-land.
D
Donʼt talk of love,
GD
Iʼve heard the words before;
EmAGD
Itʼs sleeping in my memory.
EmAEmA
And I wonʼt disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
EmGA
If I never loved I never would have cried.
D
I am a rock,
AD
I am an is-land.
D
I have my BOOKS
GD
And my poetry to protect me;
EmAGD
I am shielded in my armor,
EmAEmA
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
EmGA
I touch no one and no ONE TOUCHES me.
D
I am a rock,
AD
I am an is-land.
GF#mD
And a rock feels no pain;
GF#mD
And an island never cries.
