Rock of Ages

Chorus:
A
Round round
(D)                (A)
Wanna go round
D
Wanna see the Rock of Ages
A                            (D)       (A)
When my body gives out
E                         A
Gonna read the final pages

A                          (D) (A)
Oh my mother is gone
D
She told me I should meet her
A                                (D) (A)
Some day streets of gold
E
Gonna guide me on
A
To greet her

Once my father sat down
And told me of the prophets
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
They're gone but not forgotten

Round round
Wanna go round
Wanna see the Rock of Ages
Till my body gives out
Gonna read the gospel pages

Moses heard a voice
It called him up the mountain
Forty days had set
When Moses come a-shouting

Chorus

Instrumental break

Round round
Wanna go round
Wanna see the Rock of Ages
Till my body gives out
Gonna read the gospel pages

Bm
When I go don't cry for me
D A Bm
In my fathers arms I'll be
Bm
The wounds this world left on my soul
D A Bm
Will all be healed and I'll be whole
Bm
Sun and moon will be replaced
D A Bm
With the light of Jesus' face
Bm
And I will not be ashamed
D A Bm
For my savior knows my name
Bm
It don't matter where you bury me
D A Bm
I'll be home and I'll be free
Bm
It don't matter where I lay
Bm A Bm
All my tears be washed away
Bm
Gold and silver blind the eye
D A Bm
Temporary riches lie
Bm
Come and eat from heaven's store
D A Bm
Come and drink and thirst no more
Bm
So weep not for me my friend
D A Bm
When my time below does end
Bm
For my life belongs to him
D A Bm
Who will raise the dead again
Bm
It don't matter where you bury me
D A Bm
I'll be home and I'll be free
Bm
It don't matter where I lay
Bm A Bm
All my tears be washed away
