Rock And A Hard Place

C                 F      C
Between a rock and a hard place
C                    F                G
Whether I like or not I'm digging my grave
Am                 G              F
Friends ask me why I choose to stay
F               G      C
Between a rock and a hard place


  F                        C
I ain't getting younger now
G                         Am
I'm fading like a setting sun
           F                C                         G
I ain't strong like I was when I was young
F                      C
But for all the things I lost
 G                   Am
There are a few I've gained
          F                         G                                C
Most came between a rock and a hard place


C                 F      C
Maybe I want to stare death in face
C                    F                G
Pound my chest and scream, I ain't afraid
Am                 G              F
Truth is I'm beaten down and broken from all the weight
F               G      C
Pushing me to trade my guilt for grace


  F                        C
I ain't getting younger now
G                         Am
I'm fading like a setting sun
      F                C                         G
I ain't strong like I was when I was young
F                      C
But for all the things I lost
G                   Am
There are a few I've gained
F              G               F     Am    G
Most came between a rock and a hard place
F      Am     G
A hard place
F      Am     G     C
A hard place


Am  G   Am   G   F


C                 F      C
So when you lay me down to rest in peace
C                    F                G
Set my tombstone flat on top of my grave
Am                 G              F
So forever my body will lay between
F               G      C
A rock and a hard place


F                        C
I ain't getting younger now
G                         Am
I'm fading like a setting sun
           F                C                         G
I ain't strong like I was when I was young
F                      C
But for all the things I lost
 G                   Am
There are a few I've gained
          F                         G                                C
Most came between a rock and a hard place
