[Verse 1]
Am      G      D       Am  GD
Bury me softly in this womb
Am          G       D      Am GD
I give this part of me for you
Am                  G      D  
Sand rains down and here I sit
Am           G      
Holding rare flowers
D     Am GDAm G D
In a tomb
Am                   G             D        Am   GD
Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved
Am              G           D      Am   GD
See my heart, I decorate it like a grave
    Am                       
You don't understand who they
G             D           AmGD
Thought I was supposed to be
Am                    G  
Look at me now, I'm a man
D                     AmGD
Who won't let himself be

[Chorus]
Dm             C G     Dm            CG
Down in a hole,        losin' my soul
Dm             C G     Dm            CG
Down in a hole,        losin' control
Dm    C      Am    C G 
I'd   like   to    fly,
    F                       Am  GDAm G D
But my wings have been so denied

[Verse 2]
Am                         G      
Down in a hole and they've put all
    D               Am   GD
The stones in their place
     Am                  G     
I've eaten the sun so my tongue
         D             Am   GD
Has been burned of the taste
Am                
I have been guilty
   G         D           Am   GD
Of kicking myself in the teeth
Am              G   
I will speak no more
      D          Am   GD
Of my feelings beneath

[Chorus]
Dm             C  G    Dm            CG
Down in a hole,        losin' my soul
Dm             C  G    Dm            CG
Down in a hole,        losin' control
Dm     C      Am     C G
I'd    like   to     fly
    F                       Am  GDAm G D
But my wings have been so denied

[Verse 3]
Am      G      D       Am   
Bury me softly in this womb,
Am            G    D       Am 
Oh, I want to be inside of you
Am          G       D      Am  
I give this part of me for you,
Am            G    D       Am 
Oh, I want to be inside of you
Am                  G      D  
Sand rains down and here I sit
Am           G       
Holding rare flowers,
D    Am  GD
In a tomb
Am            G     D     
Oh, I want to be inside...

[Chorus]
Dm             C  G    Dm            CG
Down in a hole,        losin' my soul
Dm             C  G    Dm              CG
Down in a hole,        feelin' so small
Dm             C  G    Dm            CG
Down in a hole,        losin' my soul
Dm             C  G    Dm           CG
Down in a hole,        outta control
Dm     C      Am      C G
I'd    like   to      fly
    F                       Am  GD
But my wings have been so denied
