Chorus: 
                   E 
I'm gonna dig me a hole, I'm gonna bury my heart 
               A                    E 
Let it rest in pieces out in my backyard 
                     A                   E  
I'll lay a wreath of roses on a blue tombstone 
                   E         B                  E 
I'm gonna dig me a hole lord, I'm gonna bury my heart 
 
                     A                  E 
Well it just stopped beating one winter night 
         E                       B 
The very moment that she said goodbye 
             A                        E  
And one more lost love is too much to bare 
               E      B        E  
This time it's broken beyond repair 
 
 
Chorus 
 
 
Instrumental Break 
 
 
In the stone cold ground, I'm gonna chip away 
A six feet down more to it's resting place 
All you memories come shake the hand 
Of the soul survivor of this lonely man 
 
Chorus 
 
Chorus 
 
Gonna dig me a hole lord, I'm gonna bury my heart
