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
G
I am a rock
D G
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 for friendship friendship causes pain
Am C D
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
G
I am a rock
D G
I am an island

Don't talk of love well I've heard the word before
It's sleeping in my memory
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
If I never loved I never would have cried

I am a rock
I am an island

I have my books and my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me

I am a rock
I am an island
