Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 4x times for intro.
Divorcee  goes to  the bars
 A sophisticat  pulls up in his car
A  hopeful youth waits for  the first star to come  out
The  sky above can be  so mean, the clouds  cover what should be seen
And  there ain't much left  too keen in my  book
 Hangin' on to someone else, he tells you that peace sells
 And you see him like all's well, I ain't jealous
 Though you used to listen to me,
 My inner thoughts have made you flee
 I know you were just tryin' to be what you want to be
I  let you in to see  me for real
 And you walked right out that's what I feel
You  said you needed  time to be alone
And  like the youth I looked  above
 Feeling stranded without love
The  time was wrong,  and you left me in a hole
 You left  me in hole  (you left me in a hole)
 You left  me in hole
 The rain it comes, the rain it goes
 The question is, she friend or foe
 The story-teller looks to his toes, he's stuck here
 The dragon's breath is on my neck
 Which way is home, hold on a sec
 The bartender put a bottle of beer on the table
 Many people, they believe that Jesus came here to relieve
 All the problems that we breathe on each other
 And I don't care just what you do,
 Or what you think, that's up to you
 You see, those thoughts of yours are not new to me at all
And  is it these thoughts that made  you believe
 That there's nothing here so you shall leave
While  I sit here  with my guitar in my hand
And  like the youth I looked  above
 Feeling stranded without love
The  time was wrong,  and you left me in a hole
 You left  me in hole  (you left me in a hole)
 You left  me in hole
 A hungry baby starts to cry, an old man's about to die
 And all I can do is sit back and sigh, what's my problem
 Ignore the problem, that's the key
 Said the woman beneath the tree
 If your eyes are closed, you can't see the sunrise
 The phone, it rings, who could it be
 Well, it ain't her, and it's not for me
 Forgetting's as easy as 1-2-3 my friends say
 Her face is still all too clear, her leaving me was my biggest fear
 Something's got to help me steer away from her
 You have your life, and I have mine,
 Maybe we'll meet again some other time
 Down the long road, on another plain
 You left me in hole (you left me in a hole)...
