Am (A9) C
My name, I don't remember
G Am
Though I hail from Ohio
Am (A9) C
I had a wife and children
F C A9
Good tires on my car
F
What took me from my home
C A9
And put me in the Earth
F
Was the mouth of a deep dark hole
E Am
I found behind my barn
Am (A9) C
We'd been filling it with garbage
G Am
As long as you could count
Am (A9) C
Kitchen scraps and dead cows
F C A9
Tractors broken down
F
But never did I hear one thing
C (A9) Am
hit the ground
F
And slowly I came to fear
E Am
That this was a bottomless hole
Am (A9) C
I went out behind the barn
G Am
And stared down in that hole
Am (A9) C
Late into the evening
F C A9
My mind would not let go
F
So I got out my ropes and a rusty
C (A9) Am
clawfoot tub
F
And I rigged myself a chariot
E Am
To ride down in that hole
Am (A9) C
My wife, she did help me
G Am
She fed me down the ropes
Am (A9) C
And then I sank away
F C A9
From the surface of this world
F
When the last rope pulled tight
C (A9) Am
I had not reached the end
F
And in anger, I swung there
E Am
Down in that dark abyss
Am (A9) C
So I got out my knife
G Am
I told my wife goodbye
Am (A9) C
I cut loose from the ropes
F C A9
And fell on down that hole
F
And still I'm there falling
C (A9) Am
Down in this evil pit
F
But until I hit the bottom
E Am
I won't believe it's bottomless
