[VERSE 1]

                C
Some people go digging in the ground
       Em
Yesterday
      G
Up behind the town
                C
in the barren clay
        C
In the morning sun
                Em
in the haze of noon
           G
into the deep twilight
                  C
to sing a little tune

[CHORUS]

Am
Digging in the ground
Em
Digging in the ground
              G
Between the great sea swell
                   C
and the tumbling sparrow

Am
Digging in the ground
Em
Digging in the ground
              G
Towards the great fireball
                 C
and the secret marrow

Am
Digging in the ground
Em
Digging in the ground
 G
Digging in the ground

[VERSE 2]

                C
Some people go digging in the ground
           Em
digging a hole
      G
to divide
                   C
the body from the soul

              C
Beneath the broad blue sky
           Em
ceaseless toil
       G                        
for a vein of gold, 
            C
a river of oil

[CHORUS]

Am
Digging in the ground
Em
Digging in the ground
        G
In the dying light 
      C
All alone

[INTERLUDE]

[BRIDGE]

Dm                     G
We go digging in the ground
Dm                      G
Digging for shards and bones
Dm                       G
For things better left alone
