[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

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
