Em Am
My, my, I know the well is dry
Em Am
Sing me a song one more time
Em Am
The wind is raging and the birds won't fly
Em Am
Nothing to eat and nowhere to hide
Em Am
Momma is gonna be alright
Em Am
Tell me the story just one more time
Em Am
Where the grass is green and the water runs wild
Em Am
Where forever is forever and no-one has to die
(Chorus)
Em Am
Cause you can't eat the dirt even if you wanna
Em Am
Cause you can't eat the dirt even if you wanna
Em Am
Cause you can't breathe the dirt even if you wanna
C D
But you'll be in the dirt, you'll be the dirt
(Verse)
Em Am
Momma, I know I'm ready now
Em Am
I'm not afraid, and you don't need to cry
Em Am
Just close my eyes and wake up into a new life
Em Am
Momma, there's no need to cry
(Chorus)
Em Am
Because you can't eat the dirt even if you wanna
Em Am
Cause you can't eat the dirt even if you wanna
Em Am
Cause you can't breathe the dirt even if you wanna
C D
But you'll be in the dirt, you'll be the dirt
