George Jones - The Rock guitar chord

CAPO 2

INTRO: E

E

When you wake up in the mornin'

A E C#min B

And you wonder why no one's beside you where I usually lay,

E A

And you think you hear the sound of distant thunder,

E B E

Well, that's just your old rock (just your old rock) a-rollin' away

A

I was a rock standing strong for you.

E

Oh, there was nothing that I wouldn't do.

C#min B E

No matter the cost, I was ready to pay.

A

Now you say I'm only holdin' you down

E A

Like some old rock you've been draggin' around.

E B E

Yes, I'm your rock (just your old rock), but now I'm rollin' away.

E A

I'm rollin away on a downhill grade,

E B

But I'm gonna come to rest 'side a mountain of love some day.

E A

'Cause I finally understand, if you're resting on shifting sands,

E B E

Well, even a rock (even a rock) will go a-rollin' away.

A

I was a rock standing strong for you.

E

No, there was nothing that I wouldn't do.

C#min B E

No matter the cost, I was ready to pay.

A

Now you say I'm only holdin' you down

E A

Like some old rock you've been draggin' around.

E B E A

Yes, I was your rock (just your old rock), but now I'm rollin' away.

E B A E B E

Honey, I was your rock (just your old rock), now I'm rollin' away.
