Passenger – Holes (Ukulele)

C#m       B             E
I know a man with nothing in his hands

C#m              B       E
Nothing but a rolling stone

C#m          B               E
He told me 'bout when his house burnt down

C#m          B            E
And lost everything he owned

C#m      B          E
He lay asleep for six whole weeks

C#m                       B          E
They were gonna ask his mother to choose

C#m                     B                E
When he woke up with nothing he said a day is something

C#m                                   B         E
When you've got nothing you've got nothing to lose

              A
Now I got a hole in my pocket

    E
a hole in my shirt

    B                       C#m
a whole lot of troubles he said

     A                      E
But now the money is gone life carries on

       B                          C#m
And I miss it like a hole in the head

C#m        B          E
I know a woman with kids around her ankles

     C#m      B     E
And a baby on her lap

           C#m          B      E
She said one day her husband went to get a paper

            C#m        B          E
And the motherfucker never came back

C#m           B        E
Mortgage to pay and four kids to raise

     C#m     B              E
But keeping wolf from the door

             C#m             B               E
She said the wolf's just a puppy and the door's double locked

    C#m            B        E
So what ya gotta worry me for

               A
Now he left a hole in my heart

   E
a hole in a promise

    B                     C#m
a hole on the side of my bed

     A                       E
But now that he's gone well life carries on

       B                           C#m
And I miss him like a hole in the head

          A                 E                    B
Well, sometimes you can't change and you can't choose

         A                  E                   B
And sometimes it seems you gain less than you lose

             F#m           A
Now we got holes in our hearts

               E            B
Yeah, we got holes in our lives

              F#m             A                E
Well, we got holes, we got holes but we carry on -x2-

             F#m           A
Say we got holes in our hearts

               E            B
Yeah, we got holes in our lives

              F#m             A                E
Well, we got holes ,we got holes but we carry on
