        D
Let me say this to you
          G
I'll be steadfast and true
        D               G
And my love will never falter
     D
The sea would crash about us
     G
The waves would lash about us
      D                  G
I'll be your rock of Gibraltar

C
Sometimes it's hard
          Em
And we're both caught off guard
             G                   D
But there's nothing I would ever alter
                D
The wind could howl round our ears
         G
For the next thousand years
           D                  G
I'd still be your rock of Gibraltar
           D                  G
Yes, I'll be your rock of Gibraltar
          D                  G
Oh, I'll be your rock of Gibraltar

The best thing I done
Was to make you the one
Who I'd walk with down to the altar
You'd stand by me
And together we'd be
That great, steady rock of Gibraltar
Yes, the great, steady rock of Gibraltar
Oh, the great, steady rock of Gibraltar

Under the big yellow moon
On our honeymoon
I took you on a trip to Malta
And all through the night
You held me so tight
Your great, steady rock of Gibraltar
Oh, your great, steady rock of Gibraltar
Yeah, Your great, steady rock of Gibraltar

Could the powers that be
Ever foresee
That things could so utterly alter?
All the plans that we laid
Could soon be betrayed
Betrayed like the rock of Gibraltar
Betrayed like the rock of Gibraltar
Yes, Betrayed like the rock of Gibraltar
