THE COVER WAS A ROLLIN STONE

G
It was a huge humdinger, that old tomb rock thinger
	D7
And if shoved it barely would go.
D7
The thing was a beauty, but the thing was uncouth.
D7	G
At two thousand pounds or so.
G
The view inside it kills because the door it fills
	C
And the truth might not be known.
	D7
But He's gone you betcha and a look you'll getcha,
	G
Cause the cover was a rollin stone.

	D7
(Rollin stone)   For the Savior's tomb it was a cover.
G
(Stone)    Peter, John and Mary, (not his mother)
D7
(Stone)   Saw he rose up from that place
	C	G
Cause the cover was a rollin stone.

How could they get inside, matey, cause the stone was weighty?
It was heavy, hard and mean!
And not to mention ornery soldiers,
A-standing there in between?
But the troops resigned
And they did not find
Any need to grunt or groan.
No need to heave ho it, It was gone, we know it.
Cause the cover was a rollin stone.

Chorus

Well, they decided to be snoopy so they got down stoopy
To gape in the tomb that day.
They got a genuine looking in preview
Telling them he got away.
They went and told their friends. They couldn't deny
The amazing things that they were shown.
When the angel, he hitched her
then he hauled and he pitched her
cause the cover was a rollin stone.

Chorus

Now you get your kicks playing hot and heavy licks
And it's brought you fortune, "love" and fame,
But you still got  a hole in the bottom of your soul
It's a dirty, rotten, crying, shame.
Is there some one to free ya from this vicious tyranny ya
know has got you feeling lost and lone.
Let the Lord Jesus reach ya through the things he can teach ya.
from a different kind of rollin stone.

Chorus
