The Steel Woods - Rock That Has My Name

      [Intro] 
Em D A Em D A Am Em


[Verse 1]
Em                      D
I talk to the people that lie beneath these stones
Am                                         Em
Imagining they listen makes me feel less alone
Em                             D
I pick up the broken flowers, sometimes I dig a hole
Am                                              Em
Welcome in the new ones, introduce 'em to the old


[solo] 
Em D A Am A Em


[Verse 2]
Em                    D
I can use a chisel and polisher the same
Am                                            Em
I'll put anything you'd like to say under a name
Em                    D
I'll put on my suit, make sure my tie is straight
Am                                                         Em
Lend a hand to the mourning, send the loved ones on their way


[Chorus]
G                            Am
Well I ain't afraid to die 'cause I know where I'll go
Am                                               Em
There I'll live forever on the streets made of gold
G                                Am
'Til then I'll keep on working, you won't hear me complain
Am                                                       Em
And every day I'll tip my hat to the rock that says my name

[Verse 3]
 Em                                D
Well I hired on out of high school in 1968
Am                                                Em
My wife and I picked out a spot right up by the gate
Em                                  D
It ain't much but every morning the sun shines on that ground
Am                                                              Em
One of these days when I clock out, that's where I'm a-layin' down


[solo] 
G Am Em G Am Em


[Chorus]
G                           Am
Well I ain't afraid to die 'cause I know where I'll go
Am                                               Em
There I'll live forever on the streets made of gold
G                                 Am
'Til then I'll keep on working, you won't hear me complain
Am                                                       Em
And every day I'll tip my hat to the rock that says my name

Em
Throw the dirt on top of me
D                  C
Sow the seeds and let it grow


[Chorus]
D                            Am
Well I ain't afraid to die 'cause I know where I'll go
Am                                               Em
There I'll live forever on the streets made of gold
G                               Am
'Til then I'll keep on working, you won't hear me complain
Am                                                       Em
And every day I'll tip my hat to the rock that says my name


[Chorus 2]
G                            Am
Some day when I'm under it I hope you'll do the same
Am                                                         Em
Stop by sometime, tip your hat to the rock that says my name
