Hole In My Pocket
Ruthie Foster (Terri Hendrix, 2002)

4/4 | D - - - D - D u |
1 3 4 &
I'm living on the outside [D!]
And I'm looking in [A!]
I'm feeling like a win- [G!] dow
Sometimes I break just like a win- [D!] dow...
Love is jus a liquid [D!]
And it's flowing like a river [A!]
I've been reaching for this o- [G!] cean
And I break before I see the waves [D!]
Chorus
So why don't you
| [G] Show me ways to | save my soul |
| [D] Show me ways to | save my soul
I got a | [A] hole in my pocket
Where it | [G] all slips a- | [D] way | [D]
Oh, | [G] show me ways to | save my soul |
| [D] Show me ways to | [D] save my soul
I got a | [A] hole in my pocket
Where it | [G] all slips a- | [D] way | [D]
Where's my | [D] head been |
| [D] . Since this needle | [A] took a spin |
| [A] . And a stitch out of my | [G] thoughts
When | [G] I had my life in | [D] place... | [D]
I'm living on the | [D] outside |
| [D] .. And I'm | [A] looking in |
| [A] . I can't get it to- | [G] gether |
| [G] . Oh you gotta | [D] show me, you gotta | [D] show me |
Chorus
| [G] Show me ways to | [G] save my soul |
| [D] Show me ways to | [D] save my soul
I got a | [A] hole in my pocket
Where it | [G] all slips a- | [D] way | [D]
Oh, | [G] show me ways to | [G] save my soul |
| [D] Show me ways to | [D] save my soul
I got a | [A] hole in my pocket
Where it | [G] all slips a- | [D] way | [D]
Post-Chorus
Oh, I got a | [G] hole in my pocket | [G]
I got a | [D] hole in my pocket | [D]
I got a | [A] hole in my pocket
Where it | [G] all slips a- | [D] way | [D]
Oh, I got a | [G] hole in my pocket | [G]
I got a | [D] hole in my pocket | [D]
A | [A] hole in my pocket
Where it | [G] all slips a- | [D] way | [D]
Interlude
Oh | [A] Oah oh oh, | [G] oah... |
| [A] Oah oh oh, | [G] oh oh oah... |
| [A] Oah oh oh, | [G] oah oh oh | [D] oah | [D]
Bridge
There's | [A] less | [G] . and less in- | [D] side of me | [D]
Oh, a | [A] little bit less | [G] . a little bit less | [D] each day | [D]
Oh, | [A] wrap me up, | [G] . And | [D] hide me |
| [D] . Oh you know there's | [E7] gotta be something | [E7] left |
| [G] Something I can | save |
| [A] | [G] | [A] | [G] |
| [A] | [G] | [D] | [D] |
Oh, | [G] show me ways to | [G] save my soul |
| [D] Show me ways to | [D] save my soul
I got a | [A] hole in my pocket
Where it | [G] all slips a- | [D] way | [D]
Oh, | [G] show me ways to | [G] save my soul |
