         G          A
You can roll that stone
        E
To the top of the hill
 G                   A      D
Drag your ball and chain behind you
         G          A
You can carry that weight
        E
With an iron will
    G              A      D
Or let the pain remain behind you

Chorus:
F     Em        Am G
Chip away the stone
Chip away the stone
Make the burden lighter
If you must roll that rock alone

Chip away the stone
Chip away the stone
Make the burden lighter
If you must roll that rock alone

You can drive those wheels
To the end of the road
You will still find the past right behind you
Try to deny
The weight of the load
Try to put the sins of the past night behind you

Chorus

          A         B
You call roll the stone
        F#
To the top of the hill
         G          A
You can carry that weight
        E
With an iron will
          A           B
You can drive those wheels
       F#
To the end of the road
          G       A
You can try to deny
     E                D
The weight of the load

Chorus

Chip away the stone
Chip away the stone
Make the burden lighter
If you must roll that rock alone
