Down Here In The Hole
Standard Tuning
(Intro)
[G]Iā??m finding out [G7]a thing two abo[C]ut being [Am]below
[G]the sun never shines down [C]here i[D]n a [G]hole
Verse 1
[Em]when iā??m free from this place gonn[C]a find myself [D]a different set o[G]f wheels
[C]move out past the end of the [Am]road, meditate whatā??[G]s real
[Em]Billā??s been here the longest and[C] I heard beneath hi[D]s breath this ainā??t[G] no good
[C]I remember being told to come back [Am]safe and me promising I w[D]ould
(Chorus)
[G]But Iā??m praying now for[C] daylight
[G]bright shining into this one [Am]eternal [D]night
[G]Iā??m finding out[G7] a thing or two abou[C]t bein[Am]g below
[G]the sun never [C]shines down h[D]ere in a [G]hole
Verse 2
darkness is one thing but i canā??t see the hand before my face
oh the almighty dollar is the only power to pull us to this place
two more years of school, a couple lucky breaks and Iā??d been gone
now I love that became the revelation that keeps me hanging on
(Chorus)
oh Iā??m praying now for daylight
bright shining into this one eternal night
Iā??m finding out a thing or two about being below
the sun never shines down here in a hole
(instrumental)
(Bridge- same chords as verses)
Some say that I fell between the cracks and some say Iā??m a show(?)
Oh but either way Iā??m a waiting for the earth to open up above.
Well Iā??m praying now for daylight
bright shining into this one eternal night
Iā??m finding out a thing or two about being below
the sun never shines down here in a hole
[G]Iā??m finding out when[G7] troubled, the[C] spirit ca[Am]n glow
[G]but the sun never [C]shines down [D]here in the [G]hole.
