The Hole (Acoustic version)


Intro - F#m Bm F#m Bm

F#m
Well the old woman finally caught me
Bm
Sneakin' 'round her cave

Her hair looked just like barb wire, boys
                            F#m
And her smile just like the grave

She asked me could I stay a while
 Bm
I said I'd better go

She slid her arm around my neck
                     F#m
And sweetly whispered no

F#m
It's cold and dark and lonely here
                       Bm
As soon enough you'll see
                         
I'm oh so glad you stumbled in
                         F#m
I've been cravin' company

I cannot stay too long you know
                       Bm
I left some friends at home

Don't you fret about your friends
                     F#m
Down here we're all alone

F#m
Well what about my mother
                                 Bm
I can't just leave her there to mourn?

You don't have to think about her
                           F#m
Just forget you were ever born

But I'll disappoint my father
             Bm
You know he worked so hard for me

If you have to pay your father back
                        F#m
Just send him some misery

F#m
I'll miss, I said, a girl I know
                             Bm
I can't just leave there to pine

Oh She's still got plenty of men to go
                         F#m
I'm sure she'll do just fine

Well what about my little boy?
           Bm
She said, he's just like you

Let a few short years roll by
                         F#m
He'll end up down here too

F#m
And her pale green eyes began to glow
                            Bm
And she placed her hand on mine

She smiled and said don't worry
                           F#m
You'll get used to me in time

As her cold tongue flickered toward my throat
                Bm
I spun myself around

I Made a dive for the passageway
                             F#m
But the walls came tumbling down

F#m
Now her eyes were the only light
         Bm           
My fevered brain could see

But I tore myself away from them
                      F#m
And fell down to my knees

I've come too far, I can't get back
          Bm
I beseeched all the Gods of men

Fame and fortune just laughed at me
                          F#m
And it's silence once again

F#m
Then I whispered deep within
 Bm
Embraced the God of Love  

I lifted my face and through the tears
                       F#m
I saw light fall from above
F#m
I hurled myself into the wall
               Bm
I ripped and clawed my way

Through the stinkin', clingin' loam
                      F#m
Back to the light of day

I crawled out into the wind again
          Bm
With the sky upon my face

I heard the earth sigh patiently
                       F#m
As I slid back into place

F#m
Now I'm back among the ones I love
      BM
And I'm loved by them in turn

And it's only on the darkest night
                           F#m
That green eyed memory burns

So walk my friends, in the light of day
Bm
Don't go sneakin' 'round no holes

There might be something down there
                             F#m
Wants to gobble up your soul
