Verse
The Asoul is the D/Arock and the E/A(x02100)rock will not be Amoved
D/A A 
E/A Nothing is disputed, yet D/Anothing is Adisproved
And the Aseeds of the earth that were D/Aplanted long ago
Still E/Ayield a better harvest than the D/Arock was prone to Agrow
Chorus
G/A (x00001) Say what you like to do what you do, Aeveryone's sleeping now two by two
G/A Bats in the roof, cats in the hall, Adust on the stairway, gnats on the wall E 
Big rain coming, E big rain coming this way
E Rain on the rock, Erain on the rock, Erain on the rock
E7 A7/4 (x02030) 
Verse
The Asea is the D/Aspace which the E/Arock has disAplaced
D/A A 
The E/Amind is some stranger that some D/Asoul has emAbraced
And Asomewhere between, in a D/Ano-man's land of dreams
The E/Aheart becomes the soldier yet the D/Arock is not reAdeemed
Chorus
G/A Say what you like to do what you can, Alive like a sheep, die like a lamb
G/A Bats in the roof, cats in the hall, Adust on the stairway, gnats on the wall E 
Big rain coming, E big rain coming this way
E Rain on the rock, Erain on the rock, Erain on the rock
E7 A7/4 (x02030) 
Verse
The Asoul is the D/Arock and the E/A(x02100)rock will always Aroll
D/A A 
In E/Acircles 'round the sun doing D/Arings around the Apole
When the Amind is not sure what the D/Aheart will do next
The E/Arock becomes the master and the D/Aroad becomes what's Aleft
Chorus
G/A Late one night when the moon shone Adown, we went to the mill on the edge of the town
G/A She wore white, I wore black, the Atown was sleeping when we got back E 
Big rain coming, E big rain coming this way
E Rain on the rock, Erain on the rock, Erain on the rock
E7 A7/4 (x02030) 
Verse
The Asoul is the D/Arock and the E/A(x02100)rock will not be Aharmed
D/A A 
Though E/Aman must be cheated just as D/Awoman must be Acharmed
And the Amind is the light for the D/Aheart which cannot see
The E/Asoul becomes the stranger but the D/Arock will always Abe
Chorus
G/A Say what you like to do what you do, Aeveryone's sleeping now two by two
G/A Bats in the roof, cats in the hall, Adust on the stairway, gnats on the wall E 
Big rain coming, E big rain coming this way
E Rain on the rock, Erain on the rock, Erain on the rock
E7 A7/4 (x02030) 
Verse
The Asoul is the D/Arock and the E/A(x02100)rock will not be Amoved
D/A A 
E/A Nothing is disputed, yet D/Anothing is Adisproved
And the Aseeds of the earth that were D/Aplanted long ago
Still E/Ayield a better harvest than the D/Arock was prone to Agrow
And the Aseeds of the earth that were D/Aplanted long ago
Still E/Ayield a better harvest than the D/Arock was prone to Agrow
