Way Down In The Hole Chords by Tom Waits

[B] After all that, [F#m] _ [Bm] I feel as though we should move right into the religious [F#] material.
[B] Jesus Christ!
Can I get an amen?
_ Yes you!
[F#] Can I get [Bm] a hallelujah?
[D] _ _ [E] _
When you walk [G] through the garden,
[D] _ _ [Bm] _
[F#] you [A] gotta put your [G#] bet, _ _
when I beg [Em] your calling,
_ or [F#m] the spit never [Bm] dreads. _ _ _
When you walk with Jesus, _ _
he's gonna save your soul.
_ [A#] _ _
You've got to [E] keep the devil.
[Bm] _ _ Why [B] we gotta [A#] keep him [Bm] down in the hole? _ _ _ _
He's got the fire.
[F#m] _ [Bm] People, he's got the fury.
_ In his [F#m] command.
_ [Bm] _ _
[E] All you don't have to [F#] worry.
_ Hold on [A] to, [G#] hold on [Bm] to, Jesus' hand,
we'll all be safe from Satan. _ _
When the thunder,
when the thunder starts to roar,
we've got [F#] to keep the [Bm] devil.
_ _ [A#] Keep him [Bm] on the,
the dogs door.
_ That red horn,
lousy lowlife underneath [D] our boots,
praise him.
[Bm] I don't know what he is.
[D] You darling, that demon master.
[Bm] Freedom, that bench devil.
Just see if you can [G#] come up with a figure
that matches your faith.
He says, how much has Jesus done for you?
And we've got to [B] go in
with our hydraulic [D] system
and blast him [A#] out.
[G] People, can I get an amen?
_ [N] All the angels,
_ [Bm] best time to sing, _ _
all about Jesus' mighty soul. _ _
And the children with their wings, _ _ _
people, they'll keep you close to the Lord. _ _
_ Pay the temptation, _ _ _
for his hands are so cold.
_ [Dm] _
[G#] You've got to keep him there.
_ _ _ [D] _
[F#] Keep him [Bm] on the, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [F#m] _ _ the dog door.
_ _ _ _ Well, people, _
_ I have to speak [Bm] about something.
[F#m] _ _
[A] _ [Bm] _ _ Can I get an amen? _ _
_ [G#] Can I get a hallelujah? _ _
_ _ Praise the Lord. _ _
[D] _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
[D] _ [B] _ _ [A] _ People, _
the Lord is a very, very busy man.
_ [Em] _ _ [F#m] _ [E] I'll do what I can.
_ [F#] _ _ _ Jesus is always going for the big picture.
_ [G#] _ [E] But he's always there
to help [Bm] us out of the little [F#] jams.
[A] _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
Dog.
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ In _
[F] _ [A#] a hole.
[Bm] _ _ [A#] Give [Bm] him down in a hole.
[D] _ _ [G] _ _ _
[E] _ [Bm] Keep it up. _ _ _ _
[G] Down in a hole.
[Bm] _ _ [B] _ You [A#] got it.
[E] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ Give him [A#] on [Bm] down in a, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
dog door.
_ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ Send you down below. _
_ _ _ _ _ Spending my life
with anger and strife.
Go down, mighty devil. _ _ Hail. _
