Intro

Verse 1 (main riff):
There is a hole in the night that the city keeps travelling round
There is a hole in the roof where the ego comes down
There is a hole in the closet where the coats go to fly
There is a hole in the closet where noisy cats go to die

C               
I step away from the window
     G                     Em
I am struck by a nightly disease
C
Something has been coming 
                          
For a long time it's been crawling
       G                          Em
Out of pitch-black and expanding seas
C
It's clearly headed in my direction
     Bm
I am strong but I need protection

Chorus (riff):
There is a hole in my heart tonight

Verse 2 (main riff):
Ah there were times when I had just one eye
It took a field to fly and a bird to cry
Or just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand
Just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand

C                                                G     Em
That sort of memory is no match for my poisonous pen
C
Big, bad, boy approaches the mirror
       G                  Em
With a dead black bird in his bad-fingered hand
C
Hand extended in my direction
     Bm
I am strong but I need protection

Chorus (riff):
There is a hole in my heart tonight

(main riff)

C
Hand extended in my direction
     Bm
I am strong but I need protection
