G C/G G
A winter's day, in a deep and dark December
Am D C G
I am alone
Am Bm Am Bm
Gazing from my window to the streets below
Am C D
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
C G C D G Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Em
I am a rock, I am an island
G C/G G
I've built walls, a fortress deep and mighty
Am D C G
That none may penetrate
Am Bm Am Bm
I have no need of friendship, friendship causes pain
Am C D
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
C G C D G Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Em
I am a rock, I am an island
G C/G G
Don't talk of love. Well, I've heard the word before
Am D C G
It's sleeping in my memory
Am Bm Am Bm
And I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
Am C D
If I never loved I never would have cried
C G C D G Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Em
I am a rock, I am an island
G C/G G
I have my books and my poetry to protect me
Am D C G
I am shielded in my armour
Am Bm Am Bm
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb
Am C D
I touch no one and no one touches me
C G C D G Gsus4 G
I am a rock, I am an island
Am D G
And a rock feels no pain
Am D G
And an island never cries
