G---------------------------------------------- D C G Well I’m digging myself out of this hole D C G They say it can’t be done, but what do they know Em C G Faith’s my shovel, gonna use my hands D C G I’m digging out of this hole any way that I can
I did some things, that I shouldn’t have done When I should have stayed put, I was on the run Now I find, there ain't no place to go So I'm digging myself out of this hole
D C G My mind is sharp and my back is strong D C G I’ve done a lot of thinkin about right and wrong D C Em I’ve made amends and I’m paying my toll G C G I’m digging myself out of this hole, G C G I’m digging myself out of this hole.
Its dark and its dirty so far down I had me a good wife, but look around There’s no easy way, there ain’t no trapdoor I just don’t wanna live this way anymore
My mind is sharp and my back is strong I’ve done a lot of thinkin about right and wrong I’ve made amends and I’m paying my toll I’m digging myself out of this hole, I’m digging myself out of this hole.
It might take awhile for the people to see That I’m not the man that I used to be I was mean as a snake; I was blind as a mole But I’m digging myself out of this hole
My mind is sharp and my back is strong I’ve done a lot of thinkin about right and wrong I’ve made amends and I’m paying my toll I’m digging myself out of this hole, I’m digging myself out of this hole. I’m digging myself out of this hole.
