G
In the black dust towns of east Tennessee
DG
All the work's about the same
G
And you may not go to the job in the ground
DG
But you learn the miner's refrain
Chorus:
G
I'm down in a hole, I'm down in a hole,
DG
Down in a deep, dark hole
G
I'm down in a hole, I'm down in a hole,
DG
Down in a deep, dark hole
Verse 2:
G
When you search the rain for the silver cloud
DG
And you wait on days of gold
G
When you pitch to the bottom
And the dirt comes down
DG
You cry so cold, so cold
Chorus:
G
I'm down in a hole, I'm down in a hole,
DG
Down in a deep, dark hole
G
I'm down in a hole, I'm down in a hole,
DG
Down in a deep, dark hole
Verse 3:
G
Now there's something good in a worried song
DG
For the trouble in your soul
G
'Cause a worried man who's been a long way down
DG
Down in a deep dark hole
Chorus:
G
I'm down in a hole, I'm down in a hole,
DG
Down in a deep, dark hole
G
I'm down in a hole, I'm down in a hole,
DG
Down in a deep, dark hole
DG
I'm down in a deep, dark hole
