Rocky Chords by Austin Roberts

_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[C] Alone until [G] my 18th year, [C] we met four springs [G] ago _
[C] She was shy [G] and had a fear [C]
of things she did not [G] know _
[C] But we got [G] it all together [C]
in such a super [G] way
_ [C] We held each other [G] close at night [C] and traded dreams [G] each day
And she [F] said, Rocky, I've never been in love before
[C]
Don't know if I can do it
_ [G]
But if you let me lean on you, take [C] my hand
I might get through it, through [F] it
I said, baby, oh sweet baby, [C] it's love that sets us free
_ [G] And God knows that the world should live [F] your love is safe with [C] me _ _ _
_ _ _ Found an old grey [G]
house and you [C] would not believe [G] the way
We [C] worked at night [G] to fix it and [C] took classes in [G] the day
_ _ [C] Painting walls [G] and sipping wine, [C] sleeping on [G] the floor
_ [C] So much love, [G] but just two, soon [C] we found there'd be [G] one more
And she [F] said, Rocky, I've never had a baby before
[C] Don't know if I can do it
_ [G] But if you let me lean on you, take [C] my hand
I might get through it, through [F] it
I said, baby, oh sweet baby, [C] it's love that sets us free
_ [G] And God knows that the world should live [F] your love is safe [C] with _ me
_ _ _ We had lots of [A] problems then, but we had lots [G] of fun
_ _ [C]
Like the crazy [G] party when [C] our baby girl [G] turned one
_ [C]
I was proud [G] and satisfied, _ [C]
life had so much [G] to give
_ _ [C]
Till the day they [G] told me that she [C]
didn't have long [G] to live
She [F] said, Rocky, I've never had to die before
[C]
Don't know if I can [A] do it
_ [D]
Now it's back [A] to two again, [D] the little [A] girl and I
_ _ [D]
Look so much [A] like her sweet mother, [D]
sometimes it makes [A] me cry
_ [D] I sleep alone [E] at night again, [D] I walk alone [E] each [A] day
[D] And sometimes [A] when I'm about to give in, [D] I hear her sweet [A] voice say to [G] me
Rocky, you know you've been alone before, [D]
you know that you can do it
[A] _
But if you like to lean on me, take my [D] hand, I'll help you through it, through [G] it
I said, baby, oh sweet baby, [D] it's love that sets us free
_ [A] And I told you when the world would end, [G] your love was [D] safe with me
She [G] said, Rocky, you know you've been alone before, [D]
you know that you can do it
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
