Diggin' Holes
G
G
Well, I oughta be workin' in a coal mine
Neck deep in black lung soot
Swingin' a pick at that mountainside
C D
Halfway to China I think I would
G
Fit right in where the sun don't shine
Am
She's better off alone
C G
Yeah I oughta be workin' in a coal mine
D G
Lord knows I'm good at diggin' holes
G
Well I oughta be drillin' for that black gold
Swimmin' in that Texas tea
I could make a killin' all on my own
C D
Sendin' my misfortune to her family
G
'cause when I hit rock bottom
Am
The deeper down I go
C G
Oh I oughta be drillin' for that black gold
D G
Lord knows I'm good at diggin' holes
G
Well I oughta be workin' for the railroad
Sweat pourin' off my back
Haulin' away a heavy load
C D
It's a far cry from heaven down that cold steel track
G
And I can't take her with me
Am
She's better off without
C G
Yeah I oughta be workin' for the railroad
D G
Lord knows I'm good at leavin' town
D C
When it comes to love I ain't got a clue
D G
What this heart of mine is supposed to do
D C
It tears me up inside what I put her through
D
Still she won't let go
Am C G G x2
G
Well I oughta make my livin' in a graveyard
Over my head in dirt
If I had a shovel I'd bury this heart
C D
Six feet down and my last words would be
G
I never meant to hurt you
Am
I'm better off a ghost
C G
Oh I oughta make my living in a graveyard
D G
Lord knows I'm good at diggin' holes
C G
Oh I oughta make my living in a graveyard
D G
Lord knows I'm good at diggin' holes
