Rocky

We were in a
G#m7 F#maj7
park, I could jump so far, Seems like
G#m7 F#maj7
all I'd ever done, Was smoking pot out in the car, And a
G#m7 F#maj7 Emaj7 F#/E Emaj7
figure faded in, From the departees of my old school. He says
G#m7 F#maj7
"Ben, We both know you're asleep, I've been
G#m7 F#maj7
running through these fields, It's such a lovely place you dream, Is it
G#m7 F#maj7 Emaj7 F#/E Emaj7
your imagination? It's been years since I've been on my feet." Now it's
Bmaj9 F#maj9 Bmaj9
Rocky's day, Send his soul on it's way,
G#m7 F#maj7 A#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out, Yeah it's
Bmaj9 F#maj9 Bmaj9
Rocky's day, And it's time he went way,
G#m7 F#maj7 A#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out today.

I recall, But I don't know who told me
G#m7 F#maj7
Rocky was a runner, Won a medal back in school, Now at
G#m7 F#maj7 Emaj7 F#/E Emaj7
Christmas momma says "You go up and be Rockys room", As we
G#m7 F#maj7
watched the sun go down he thanks me for my dreams,
G#m7 F#maj7
He said "I know you think you are but you're not completely free
G#m7 F#maj7 Emaj7 F#/E Emaj7
The man who's seen a spectre of departure is completely free." Now it's
Bmaj9 F#maj9 Bmaj9
Rocky's day, Send his soul on his way,
G#m7 F#maj7 A#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out today, Yeah it's
Bmaj9 F#maj9 Bmaj9
Rocky's day, Send his soul on his way,
G#m7 F#maj7 A#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out today.

G#m7 F#maj7 Emaj7 F#/E Emaj7
G#m7 F#maj7 G#m7 F#maj7
G#m7 F#maj7 Emaj7
Then he
G#m7 F#maj7
smiled, And he turned and walked away,
G#m7 F#maj7
He said over his shoulder, "I'll be gone when you're awake"
It's
Bmaj9 F#maj9 Bmaj9
Rocky's day, Send his soul on it's way,
G#m7 F#maj7 A#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out, Yeah it's
Bmaj9 F#maj9 Bmaj9
Rocky's day, Send his soul on it's way,
G#m7 F#maj7 A#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out today.
Bmaj9 F#maj9 Bmaj9
Rocky's day, Send his soul on it's way,
G#m7 F#maj7 A#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out today, Yeah it's
Bmaj9 F#maj9 Bmaj9
Rocky's day, Send his soul on it's way,
G#m7 F#maj7 A#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out today.
