The Same Picking Pattern Gets applied to all chords where it is needed. 

G 
The rock of my soul went to church on sunday, 
 Em 
The rock of my soul went to work on monday, 
 G 
Clean across the leves by the railroad tracks, 
  Em 
The other side of houston in a two room shack. 
  C 
Sweeping out confetti from a third grade classroom, 
  Em 
The rock of my soul pushed a dust mop broom. 
  G 
The rock of my soul didn't have much luck, 
   Em 
He came to town grinnin on a flat bed truck. 
   G 
The rock of my soul didn't have much charm, 
    Em 
With the lack of eductaion on a red dirt farm. 
     C 
He was fond of disapearing on an eight day drunk, 
     Em 
Coming Home smelling like a low down skunk. 

and he said.... (Start Strum) 

  F            Em                    C             G 
Do like I say, not like I do and you might make me proud. 
  F                 Em                    C           G 
Another Houston kid on a downhill skid for crying out loud. 

(Back to Pickin) 
 G 
I'm a first hand witness to an age old crime, 
  Em 
A man who hits a woman isn't worth a dime. 
  G 
5, 6, 7, 8, 9 years old, 
  Em 
Thats what I remember about the rock of my soul. 
   C 
I told him I would kill him if he did not stop it, 
    Em 
But the rock of my soul just would not drop it. 

F 
I learned to lie like dirt, 
Em                             C            G 
I could steal your shirt and , talk with a gun. 
 F                 Em                       C            G 
Another Houston kid on a downhill skid like father like son. 

G 
Now I got out of prison 'bout a year ago, 
Em 
Seven long years really went by slow. 
 G 
I didn't kill my daddy but my momma tried, 
 Em 
She shot him with a pistol and he like to a died. 
 C 
I'm on probation living straight and true, 
 Em 
and there's every indication that the past is through. 
  C                                     G 
That's all I know, 'bout the rock of my soul. 

Repeat G, Em 5x then end.
