D   Cadd9    G

[Verse]
D                       Cadd9       G
Well I'm digging myself out of this hole
D                             Cadd9        G
They say it can't be done, but what do they know
Em                       C       G
Take my shovel gonna use my hands
D                           Cadd9      G       G
Diggin out of this hole any way that I can

[Verse]
D                              Cadd9          G
Well I did some things, that I shouldn't have done
D                                    Cadd9  G
When I should have stayed put, I was on the run
Em                         C        G
Now I find, there ain't no place to go
D                    Cadd9       G
So I'm diggin myself out of this hole

[Chorus]
D                       Cadd9    G
My mind is sharp and my back is strong
D                                 Cadd9    G
I've done a lot of thinking about right and wrong
Em                       C         G
I've made amends and I'm paying my toll
D                  Cadd9       G
I'm digging myself out of this hole
D                  Cadd9       G     G
I'm digging myself out of this hole

[Verse]
D                       Cadd9  G
It's dark and its dirty so far down
D                         Cadd9    G
I had me a good wife, but look  around
Em                         C        G
There's no easy way, there ain't no trapdoor
D                         Cadd9  G
I don't want to live this way no more.

[Chorus]
D                       Cadd9    G
My mind is sharp and my back is strong
D                                 Cadd9     G
I've done a lot of thinking about right and wrong
Em                       C         G
I've made amends and I'm paying my toll
D                  Cadd9       G      G
I'm digging myself out of this hole
D                  Cadd9       G         G
I'm digging myself out of this hole

[Instrumental]
D    Cadd9    G
D    Cadd9    G
Em   C        G
D    Cadd9    G
D    Cadd9    G    G

[Verse]
D                            Cadd9    G
It might take awhile for the people to see
D                           Cadd9    G
That I'm not the man that I used to be
Em                           C         G
I was mean as a snake; I was blind as a mole
D                       Cadd9      G        G
But I'm digging myself out of this hole

[Chorus]
D                       Cadd9    G
My mind is sharp and my back is strong
D                                 Cadd9    G
I've done a lot of thinking about right and wrong
Em                       C         G
I've made amends and I'm paying my toll
D                  Cadd9       G
I'm digging myself out of this hole
D                  Cadd9       G
I'm digging myself out of this hole

[Outro]
D                         Cadd9  G     G
I'm digging myself out of this hole
D    Cadd9    G
