Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Hard to dig a  hole
 When the  ground is cold and  tough
 Hard to dig a  hole
 You can't  go deep  enough
Make  some cracks with that ax
 Til your  broken back is sore
 Stick that shovel  in the gravel
 Poke around  a little  more
 Hard to dig a  hole
 With  tears in your  eyes
 Hard to dig a hole
 When your  whole world  dies
 Hard to chisel names
 On a rotten fence rail
 Hard to chisel names
 With a bent and rusty nail
 Mother is covered
 And buried in the dirt
 Daughter I've got her
 Buried in my heart
Carve  out a life
By  earth and blood and bone
Everything  you love
Leaves  you all alone
 Easy to dream
 When all I see is them
 Easy to dream
 And not wake up again
 In the blind of my mind
 I see them everywhere
 In the hole of my soul
 I know they are nowhere
