[Verse]
A winter'sG day, in aC deep and darkG December;
Am I Dam CaloGne,
Am7Gazing from my Bm7window to the Am7streets Bm7below
On a Amfreshly fallen Csilent shroud of Dsnow.
[Chorus]
C G C D G - Em
I am a rock, I am an i___sland.
[Verse]
I've built Gwalls, a Cfortress deep and Gmighty,
Am That none Dmay pCenetrGate.
I Am7have no need of Bm7friendship; Am7friendship causes Bm7pain.
It's Amlaughter and it's Cloving I Ddisdain.
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse]
Don't talk of Glove, but I've Cheard the words Gbefore;
It's AmsleepDing in Cmy memGory.
I Am7won't disturb the Bm7slumber of Am7feelings that have Bm7died.
If I Amnever loved I Cnever would have Dcried.
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse]
I have my Gbooks and my Cpoetry to Gprotect me;
I am shAmielded Din my CarmGor,
Am7Hiding in my Bm7room, Am7safe within my Bm7womb.
I Amtouch no one and no Cone touches Dme.
[Repeat Chorus]
[Outro]
And a Amrock feels Dno Gpain;
And an iAmsland Dnever Gcries.
