[Verse]
CWay way down a hGole, there's no Amfeeling,
Cause when you're Fso far below the flCoor, everything's a Gceiling.
CWe dug it down as deep as we cGould just like we Amplanned it,
FBut when you climbed out you pulled the Cladder and it left me stGranded
[Chorus]
FSo what am I supposed to Amdo?
CI'm calling out Amto yGou
FBut you're miles away, iAmt's Gtrue
FDigging with somGeone newC  
[Verse]
CSo far down in this hGole, there's little dAmaylight.
I feel the Fshards of the midday sCun and then it's black as mGidnight.
CThe only stars I see in the skGy, oh they don't mAmove me.
FCause they've all been dead for millions of yeCars, they're just light dGiffusing.
[Chorus]
FAnd a constellation is moAmre
CAnd the brightest point is AmformG,
FBut every telescope you AmassGumed
FWas pointed only Gat you.C  
[Bridge]
FAnd I've got nowhere to go excepCt further below,
So I keep dAmigging.
FAnd it gets darker everyday,
But I see Amno other way than just Ccommitting.
FAnd if the earth is as round as they sayC  
Then I wE7on't find anotheAmr place
FFrom where I break back Cthrough
That's fE7arther away from Amyou
FThat's Gfarther away from Cyou
 (Unsure on the Dm6 xx0201, but it sounds alright)
C Am Dm6  G
[Chorus]
FSo what am I supposed to Amdo?
CI'm calling out Amto yGou

Dm6

There are a few funny slides in this, but hopefully this will help someone tab it properly.

[Verse]

C G Am

Way way down a hole, there's no feeling,

F C G

Cause when you're so far below the floor, everything's a ceiling.

C G Am

We dug it down as deep as we could just like we planned it,

F C G

But when you climbed out you pulled the ladder and it left me stranded

[Chorus]

F Am

So what am I supposed to do?

C Am G

I'm calling out to you

F Am G

But you're miles away, it's true

F G C

Digging with someone new

[Verse]

C G Am

So far down in this hole, there's little daylight.

F C G

I feel the shards of the midday sun and then it's black as midnight.

C G Am

The only stars I see in the sky, oh they don't move me.

F C G

Cause they've all been dead for millions of years, they're just light diffusing.

[Chorus]

F Am

And a constellation is more

C Am G

And the brightest point is form,

F Am G

But every telescope you assumed

F G C

Was pointed only at you.

[Bridge]

F C

And I've got nowhere to go except further below,

So I keep digging.

And it gets darker everyday,

Am C

But I see no other way than just committing.

F C

And if the earth is as round as they say

E7 Am

Then I won't find another place

F C

From where I break back through

E7 Am

That's farther away from you

F G C

That's farther away from you

(Unsure on the Dm6 xx0201, but it sounds alright)

C Am Dm6 G

[Chorus]

F Am

So what am I supposed to do?

C Am G

I'm calling out to you

F Am G

But you're miles away, it's true

F G C

Digging with someone new

F Am

So what am I supposed to do?

C Am G

I'm calling out to you

F Am G

But you're miles away, it's true

F G C

Digging with someone new

F G Am

Digging with someone new

F G C

Digging with someone new
