[Capo on 1st fret]
G C G C
GStood there boldly sweatin' in the sun
CFelt like a million, felt like number one
FThe height of summer, I'd Cnever felt that strong
Like a Grock.
GI was eighteen, didn't have a care
CWorkin' for peanuts, not a dime to spare
FBut I was lean and Csolid everywhere
Like a Grock.
GMy hands were steady, my eyes were clear and bright
CMy walk had purpose, my steps were quick and light
FAnd I held firm to Cwhat I felt was right
Like a Grock.
Like a Grock - I was strong as I could be
Like a Crock - nothin' ever got to me
Like a Frock - I was Csomething to see
Like a Grock.
And I Emstood arrow straight, unencumbered by the weight
Of all these Ghustlers and their schemes
I stood Cproud, I stood tall, high above it all
I Amstill believed in my Ddreams.
[SOLO]
GTwenty years now, where'd they go
CTwenty years - I don't know
FI sit and I wonder sometimesC where they've Ggone
And Gsometimes late at night C- oh when I'm bathed in the firelight
FThe moon comes callin' a ghostly Cwhite
And I recall, I recall.
Like a Grock - standin' arrow straight
Like a Crock - chargin' from the gate
Like a Frock - Ccarryin' the weight
Like a Grock.
Like a Grock - the sun upon my skin
Like a Crock - hard against the wind
Like a Frock - I see mysCelf again
Like a Grock,
Oh, like a rock.
[SOLO]
