[Verse 1]
          G
Well, you tell me how she was when you once knew her
         G
How she played her games with many, many men
        G
And you tell me that you don't think I'd be with her
                D                G
If I could have known her back then

          G
Lord, you ask me why I don't pack up and leave her
    G
Now that I know about her wicked ways
        G
Well, I doubt that you could understand my thinkin'
         G               D               G
Hey, but listen close to what I have to say


[Chorus]
G          D          G       C
She's the rock that I lea-ean on
 G         D              G
She's the sunshine of my day
       G          D             G    C
And, I don't care what you say about her
          G                       G
Now, She took me in and made me, everything I am today
G                    D                      G
She's my rock and I ain't gon' throw her away!

[Verse 2]
   G
I know she never was worth what she is now
          G
Lord, she had to make mistakes like everyone else
          G
Hey, but don't you point your finger at nobody
            G                     D                  G
Lord, it's plain to see that you ain't no saint yourself

[Chorus]
G          D          G       C
She's the rock that I lea-ean on
 G
She's the sunshine of my day
       G          D             G    C
And, I don't care what you say about her
          G                      G
Now, she took me in and made me, everything I am today
G                    D                      G
She's my rock and I ain't gon' throw her away!


[Outro]
           G                  D                     G
I said, she's my rock and I ain't gon' throw her away!
 G                    D                      G
She's my rock and I ain't gon' throw her away!
G                    D                      G
she's my rock and I ain't gon' throw her away!
               G                          D         G
and there's a pickle in the middle and a mustard on top
