We were in a
Em7 Dmaj7
park, I could jump so far, Seems like
Em7 Dmaj7
all I'd ever done, Was smoking pot out in the car, And a
Em7 Dmaj7 Cmaj7 D/C Cmaj7
figure faded in, From the departees of my old school. He says
Em7 Dmaj7
"Ben, We both know you're asleep, I've been
Em7 Dmaj7
running through these fields, It's such a lovely place you dream, Is it
Em7 Dmaj7 Cmaj7 D/C Cmaj7
your imagination? It's been years since I've been on my feet." Now it's
Gmaj9 Dmaj9 Gmaj9
Rocky's day, Send his soul on it's way,
Em7 Dmaj7 F#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out, Yeah it's
Gmaj9 Dmaj9 Gmaj9
Rocky's day, And it's time he went way,
Em7 Dmaj7 F#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out today.

Em7 Dmaj7
I recall, But I don't know who told me
Em7 Dmaj7
Rocky was a runner, Won a medal back in school, Now at
Em7 Dmaj7 Cmaj7 D/C Cmaj7
Christmas momma says "You go up and be Rockys room", As we
Em7 Dmaj7
watched the sun go down he thanks me for my dreams,
Em7 Dmaj7
He said "I know you think you are but you're not completely free
Em7 Dmaj7 Cmaj7 D/C Cmaj7
The man who's seen a spectre of departure is completely free." Now it's
Gmaj9 Dmaj9 Gmaj9
Rocky's day, Send his soul on his way,
Em7 Dmaj7 F#7sus4 F#7
The sun won't be coming out today, Yeah it's

Then he

smiled, And he turned and walked away,
Em7 Dmaj7
He said over his shoulder, "I'll be gone when you're awake"
