The Hole

Em
Behind the house the ground has 
opened up
                            D      
And it’s so deep a hole its bottom 
         Em
can’t be found
             C
It sucks the air inside
    B             Em
And makes quiet sea sounds

Am     G

   Em                  D          
We sometimes stand and linger at 
   Em
the edge
                               D   
We like to dare each other how 
         E
close we can get
              C
And there’s a pact we’ve made
   B                               
If one should fall the other 
  E
follows in

Ooooooo        oooooooooo
C           Am
Oooooooo    ooooooooooo

                      D        
We started small with trash and 
        Em
rotten food
And then the neighbors came with 
D               E
cars and davenports, too
         C           B
Then the government, midnight dumps
                  E
Of what, we never knew

C     Em       B
Oooooooooooooooo
C           Am            E
Oooooooo    ooooooooooo


A letter came the other day

From clear around the globe
         Am
It said “We hope that you’re the 
ones

On the other end of the hole
B
Could you please take a few things 
back
    C                 F         Em
Our country’s getting full”

     C     Em       B
Oooooooooooooooo
C           Am           E
Oooooooo    ooooooooooo
