capo 1 — sounds a semitone higherCapo on 1st fret
Stood there boldly sweatin' in the sun
Felt like a million, felt like number one
The height of summer, I'd never felt that strong
Like a rock.
I was eighteen, didn't have a care
Workin' for peanuts, not a dime to spare
But I was lean and solid everywhere
Like a rock.
My hands were steady, my eyes were clear and bright
My walk had purpose, my steps were quick and light
And I held firm to what I felt was right
Like a rock.
Like a rock - I was strong as I could be
Like a rock - nothin' ever got to me
Like a rock - I was something to see
Like a rock.
And I stood arrow straight, unencumbered by the weight
Of all these hustlers and their schemes
I stood proud, I stood tall, high above it all
I still believed in my dreams.
SOLO
Twenty years now, where'd they go
Twenty years - I don't know
I sit and I wonder sometimes where they've gone
And sometimes late at night - oh when I'm bathed in the firelight
The moon comes callin' a ghostly white
And I recall, I recall.
Like a rock - standin' arrow straight
Like a rock - chargin' from the gate
Like a rock - carryin' the weight
Like a rock.
Like a rock - the sun upon my skin
Like a rock - hard against the wind
Like a rock - I see myself again
Like a rock,
Oh, like a rock.
SOLO
