[Intro 1]
[C#][A][D][C#][D][C#]

[Verse 1]
Oh the Empire,
it is finished
No foreign lands to seize
So the [F#]greedy eye of [C#]England[A]
[C#]Is turning towards the s[A]eas
Two [D]hundred [C#]miles from Doneg[A]al
[Bm]Ther[C#]e's a place that's
[A]called Rockall
And the [G]groping [F#]hands of White[D]hall
[A]Are grabbing at it's [D]wall

[Verse 2]
[C#]Oh rock on, Rockall, you'll ne[A]ver fa[Bm]ll
For Britain's greedy hand[Db]s
Oh, you'll [F#]meet the same res[C#]istance
Like you did in many lands
May the [D]seagull[C#]s rise [A]and
pluck your eye[Bm]s
An[A]d the [C#]water [A]crush [C#]your Shell
And the [G]natur[F#]al gas will b[C#]urn your ass
[A]And blow you all to hell

[Verse 3]
[C#]This[D] rock is p[C#]art of I[D]rela[A]nd[D]
For it's written in folklore
[A]When [D]Fin[G]n McCool took a sod[D] of grass
He threw it to [A]the fore
Then he [D]tossed a pebble
[A]across [D]the[A] sea[Bm]
Where [D]ever [C#]did i[D]t fall
For the [G]sod became the Isle [D]of Man
[C#]Now [A]the pebble's called Rockall

[Verse 4]
[D]Oh rock on,
[C#]Rockall, you'll never fall[A][Bm]
For [C#]Britain's [A]greedy han[C#]ds[D]
[A]Oh, you'll [G]meet the same resist[A]ance
Like you [C#]did in many lands[A]
May the seagull[C#]s rise and
[A]pluck [Bm]your eyes
And the [C#]water crush [D]your Shell
[A]And the [G]natural gas will [C#]burn your ass
And [A]blow you all [D]to hell

[Verse 5]
Oh, the seas will [D]not be [A]si lent
[D]While Bri[A]tann[D]ia grabs the[A] waves
And re[G]member that the [D]Ir [C#]ish
Will no [D]longer be your [A]slaves
And [D]re mem[C#]ber [D]that Britannia, [Bm]well
She [D]rules the [A]waves no [D]more
[A]So [G]kep your [F#]hands [G]off [D]Roc[A]kall
It's Irish to [D]the core
[C#]Oh rock on,

[Verse 6]
Rockall, you'll never [D]fall[Bm]
For Bri[D]tain's greedy hands
Oh, you'll [G]meet the same
res[D]istance
[A]Like you did [C#]in many l[A]ands
May the [D]seagull[C#]s rise [A]and
pluck your eye[Bm]s
And the [C#]water crush [A]your Shell
And the [G]natural gas [F#]will [C#]burn your ass
[A]And blow you all to hell

[Verse 7]
Oh rock on,
[C#]Rock[A]all, you'll neve[C#]r fall[A][Bm]
For [D]Britain's greedy hands
[A]Oh, you'll [G]meet the same res[D]istance
[A]Like you did [D]in many land[A]s
May the [D]seagull[C#]s rise [D]and
pluck [A]your eye[Bm]s
And the [D]water [C#]crush [D]you[C#]r Shell
[A]And the nat[G]ural gas wil[F#]l
[D]burn your ass
[A]And blow you all [D]to hell

[Verse 8]
[C#]Oh r[D]ock on, Rockall, you'll never fa[Bm]ll
[C#]Rock on, Rockall, you'll [A]never [Bm]fall
[C#]Rock on, Rockall, you'll
never [A]fall[Bm]
[C#]Rock on, Rockall, you'll
[A]never [Bm]fall[Bm]
[C#]Rock on, Rockall, you'll never fall
[C#]Rock on, Rockall, you'll never fall
Rock on, Rockall, you'll never fall
