A augmentedA
I am not afraid when you call me down
                        E MajorE          A augmentedA
Down the basement steps under the house

 A augmentedA          E MajorE       A augmentedA
Down, down in the ground

  A augmentedA
Black cows are limping, the white dogs bark
                          E MajorE           A augmentedA
Crickets are screaming, smoke in the barn
 A augmentedA
Just like a field snake eating a mouse
                      E MajorE                   A augmentedA
Just like a bluegill hooked through its mouth

 A augmentedA          E MajorE       A augmentedA
Down, down in the ground

 A augmentedA
Cry for the toy trains lost in the snow
                           E MajorE          A augmentedA
Cry for the dead deer surrounded by crows
 A augmentedA
You call me softly down in the dark
                          E MajorE            A augmentedA
Down where the red worms circle like sharks

 A augmentedA          E MajorE       A augmentedA
Down, down in the ground

A augmentedA
Under the black mud in your quiet house
                       E MajorE           A augmentedA
you have prepared my place to lie down
    A augmentedA
A augmentedA house in the rock where sorrows drown
                 E MajorE             A augmentedA
Old man or baby make no more sound

 A augmentedA          E MajorE       A augmentedA
Down, down in the ground
