[A] [Am] [G]
[F] [Am] We boarded a boat in a border town, it was the only job I [G] found, running hot [F] rocks to the USA.
[Am] I can't tell you why, but the compass went weird, up on a reef and over she reared, [G] lying in a [F] shallow resting place.
Now [E] there's hot rocks still in the bay, that was where [Am] the fisheries [Dm] stayed, [C] [Dm] lying in the stillness, [C] her memory fades.
[Dm] Stillness all around [A] her, hot rocks [Am] still in the bay.
[G]
[F] Fishermen swear, [C] as only fishermen can, there's [Dm] no [E] fish there, cause [A] I love hot rocks.
[Am] [G]
[F] [Am]
I am a trucker, I'm a union man, driven every road in [G] this land, and I never have let [F] a load get away.
[Am]
Nobody wanted that job but me, running hot rocks for the AEC, [G]
taking them [F] to their resting place.
[Am] But I never quite made it to Hot Rocks Park, something happened out there in the dark, [G] and the truck went off the [D] road, and [F] the trailer lost load.
Now [E] there's hot rocks everywhere, that [Am] was it for the farming there.
[C] [Dm] Lying in stillness, [C] dairy cattle all around, [Dm]
looking like they're sleeping, [G] hot rocks [Am] never break down.
[G]
[F] Farmers swear, [C] as only farmers can, you can't [Dm] grow [E] food, yeah, cause of the hot rocks.
[Am]
I am a father and I am concerned, it seems the kids have already [G] learned, that if you don't play [F] with fire you won't get burned.
[Am]
I'm concerned for what we leave, hot rocks up the dealers sleeve, [G] and the cars that pass [F] around, hot rocks never [Am] break down.
[F] This man swears, [C] as only this man can, you [Dm] can't [E] play ball in [Am] hot rocks park, [G]
you see [E] that place growing [Am] in the dark, [Em]
let's lock [Dm] up [E] the gates to hot [A] rocks park.
