The Hole
By Randy Travis

Intro:
FF C majorC Bb majorBb FF
F
A augmentedA friend of mine bought himself a shovel
                     C majorC
Said I?m gonna tunnel me a mine

He set out to be a rich man
  C7C7                       FF
Happiness is what he thought he?d fine

Got in to deep to see the diamond
                   C majorC
Down to dark to see the gold
Bb majorBb                  FF
Now he won?t let go of the shovel
       C majorC                 FF
And he can?t dig out of the hole

Chorus:
Bb majorBb             FF
Deeper and deeper he?s going down
Bb majorBb       FF       G+G       C majorC
Driving his future right into the ground
Bb majorBb          FF        Bb majorBb     FF
He thinks he?s closer the further he goes
       Bb majorBb      FF
But he's still on the bottom
       C majorC
And he can?t dig out of the hole
FF
I tried to throw the man a life line
                    C majorC
I tried to send him down a rope

I don?t think he hears me calling
  C7C7                FF
But everyday I pray and hope
FF
Somehow he finally gets the message
                  C majorC
Every spade of dirt he throws
Bb majorBb                   FF
Only gets him closer to the devil
       C majorC             FF
And he can?t dig out of the hole

repeat chorus:
FF
Maybe we could learn a little lesson
                    C majorC
Maybe this?ll shine a little light

Cause theirs no healthy way to mess with
  C7C7                  FF
The line between wrong and right

Use the one chance you?ve been given
                           C majorC
Cause once your in the ground and cold
Bb majorBb             FF
It?s too late to start livin?
          C majorC
You see you can?t dig out of the hole

Repeat chorus:

It?s hell on the bottom

And you can?t dig out of the hole
