[C] Held a [G] crying [Am] maim in the dead of the night
[Em] [G] Back was breaking, [Am] my arms on fire
Brother [G] came and [Am] said, you rest a while
[Em] Down [C] on the [Am] rocks of time
[C] Down on the rocks [Am] of time
[G] Back in those days, how [Am] the hours dragged by
[Em] The sun [Gm] was a yellow [Am] slug in the sky
[G] And then that flash, [Am] six years passed [C] by
Down on the rocks [Am] of time
[C] Down on the rocks [Am] of time
Spring [G] kept [Am] pushing up the green grass
High [G] up through the [Am] cracks in my pen lines
[G] Love to a lover with [A] puzzled peace [C] eyes
Down on the [Am] rocks of time
[C] Down on the [Am] rocks of time
The [G] merry [C] demand and sands [Am] of white
[G] Palm trees [Am] swaying in the tropical light
My feet [G] were wet [Am] and my tears came [C] bright
Down on the [Am] rocks of time
[C] Down on the [Am] rocks of time
Saw a broken [G] woman [Am] who's man and child
[C] Swept [Gm] away [Am] in a wave gone [C] wild
[G] The hands of [Am] fate drew a cruel, cruel [C] line
Down on the [Am] rocks of time
[C]
Down on the [Am] rocks of time
My body [Gm] kept [Am] burning up, my tingling spine
[C] My [Gm] hair gone silver [Am] as the old starlight
My mask fell [Gm] away, [Am] look into my [C] eyes
Down on the rocks [Am] of time
[C] Down on the [Am] rocks of time
Held [G] a crying babe [Am] in the dead of the [Em] night
My [Gm] back was breaking [Am] and my arms were on [C] fire
