(capo 3rd fret)
Em D
The rock is gonna fall on us, he woke with a start
B C
And he ran to his mother, the fear dark in his heart
Em D
He told her of the vision that he was sure he'd seen
B C B Em
She said: "Go back to sleep son, you're having a bad dream!"
[Silly child...]
G
Everybody knows the rock leans over the town
D
Everybody knows that it won't tumble to the ground
C
Remember Chicken Little said the sky was falling down
B C B Em - C - Em
Well nothing ever came of that, the world still whirls around
Em D
"The rock is gonna fall on us," he stood and told the class
B C
The professor put his chalk down and peered out through his glasses
Em D
But he went on and said; "I've seen it, high up on the hill
B C B Em
If it doesn't fall this year then very soon it will!"
[Crazy boy...]
G
Everybody knows the rock leans over the town
D
Everybody knows that it won't tumble to the ground
C
We've more important studies than your fantasies and fears
B C B Em - C - Em
You know that rock's been perched up there for a hundred thousand years
Em D
"The rock is gonna fall on us." He told the magistrates
B C
"I believe that we can stop it but the time is getting late
Em D
You see I've done all the research my plans are all complete."
B C B Em
He was showing them contingencies when they showed him to the street
[Just a madman...]
G
Everybody knows the rock leans over the town
D
Everybody knows that it won't tumble to the ground
C
Everybody knows of those who say the end is near
B C B Em
Everybody knows that life goes on as usual round here
(Am 8x's)
Am G
He went up on the mountain beside the giant stone
D Em
They knew he was insane so they left him all alone
Am G
He'd given up enlisting help for there was no one else
D Em
He spent his days devising ways to stop the rock himself
Am G
One night while he was working building braces on the ledge
D B Em
The ground began to rumble the rock trembled on the edge
Em D
"The rock is going to fall on us! Run or you'll be crushed!"
B C
And indeed the rock was moving, crumbling all to dust.
Em D
He ran under it with one last hope that he could add a prop
B C B Em
And as he disappeared the rock came to a stop
Em D
The people ran into the street but by then all was still
B C
The rock seemed where it always was or where it always will be
Em D
When someone asked where he had gone they said: "Oh he was daft.
B C B Em
Who cares about that crazy fool." And then they'd start to laugh
Am G
But high up on the mountain when the wind is hitting it
D B Em
If you're watching very closely the rock slips a little bit
