Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]The soul is the rock and
The rock will not be moved
Nothing is disputed,
Yet nothing is disproved
And the seeds of the earth
That were planted long ago
Still yield a better harvest
Than the rock was prone to grow

[Verse 2]
[F]Say what you like to,
do what you do
[G]Everyone's sleeping now two by two
Bats in the [F]roof, [G]cats in the hall
Dust on the stairway,
gnats on the [D]wall

[Verse 3]
Big rain [D]comin'
Big rain comin' this way
Rain on the rock
Rain on the rock

[Verse 4]
Rain on the rock
[D]
[G]The sea is the space which
The rock has displaced
[D]The mind is some stranger
That [C]some soul has em[G]braced
And somewhere between,
In a no-man's land land of dreams
The heart becomes the soldier

[Verse 5]
Yet the rock is not redeemed
[F]Say what you like to, do what you can
[G]Live like a sheep, die like a lamb
Bats in the [F]roof, cats in the hall
[G]Dust on the stairway,
gnats on the [D]wall

[Verse 6]
Big rain [D]comin'
Big rain comin' this way
Rain on the rock
Rain on the rock

[Verse 7]
Rain on the rock
[D]
[G]The soul is the rock and
The rock will always roll
In circles 'round the sun
Doing rings [C]around the [G]pole
When the mind is not sure
What the heart [C]will do next
The [G]rock becomes the master

[Verse 8]
And the road becomes what's left
[F]Late one night when the moon shone down
We [G]went to the mill on the
edge of the town
She wore white, [F]I wore [G]black

[Verse 9]
The town was sleeping when we got back
[D]Big rain comin'
Big rain comin' this way
Rain on the rock
Rain on the rock

[Verse 10]
Rain on the rock
[D]
[G]The soul is the rock and
The rock will not be harmed
Though [D]man must be cheated
Just as [C]women must [G]be charmed
And the mind is the light
For the heart which cannot see
The soul becomes the stranger
But the rock will always be

[Verse 11]
[G]Say what you [F]like to,
do what you [G]do
Everyone's sleeping now two by two
[F]Bats in the roof, cats in the hall
[G]Dust on the stairway, gnats on the [D]wall

[Verse 12]
Oh.. Big rain [D]comin'
Big rain comin' this way
Rain on the rock
Rain on the rock

[Verse 13]
Rain on the rock
[D]The [G]soul is the rock and
The rock will not be moved
[D]Nothing is disputed
Yet [C]nothing is dis[G]proved
And the seeds of the earth
That were planted [C]long ago
Still [G]yield a better harvest
Than the rock was prone to grow

[Verse 14]
And the seeds of the [G]earth
That were planted [C]long ago
Still [G]yield a better harvest
Than the rock [C]was prone to [G]grow
