[Intro]
Em7 D/F# G x4
[Verse]
Em7 D/F# G
I know a man with nothing in his hands,
Em7 D/F# G
Nothing but a rolling stone
Em7 D/F# G
He told me 'bout when his house burnt down,
Em7 D/F# G
He lost everything he owned
Em7 D/F# G
He lay asleep for six whole weeks,
Em7 D/F# G
They were gonna ask his mother to choose
Em7 D/F# G
When he woke up with nothing he said I'll tell something
Em7 D/F# G
When you've got nothing, you've got nothing to lose
[Chorus]
C
Now I've got a hole in my pocket,
G
A hole in my shirt,
D Em
A whole lot of trouble, he said
C G
But now the money is gone, well life carries on
D Em
And I miss it like a hole in the head
[Instrumental]
Em7 D/F# G x4
[Verse]
Em7 D/F# G
I know a woman with kids around her ankles
Em7 D/F# G
And a baby on her lap
Em7 D/F# G
She said one day her husband went to get a paper
Em7 D/F# G
And the motherf**ker never came back
Em7 D/F# G
Mortgage to pay and four kids to raise,
Em7 D/F# G
But keeping wolf from the door
Em7 D/F# G
She said the wolf's just a puppy and the door's double locked
Em7 D/F# G
So why you gotta worry me for
[Chorus]
C
Now he left a hole in my heart
G
A hole in a promise
D Em
A hole on the side of my bed
C G
But now that he's gone well life carries on
D Em
And I miss him like a hole in the head
C G D
Well sometimes you can't change and you can't choose
C G D
And sometimes it seems you gain less than you lose
Am C
Now we've got holes in our hearts
G D
Yeah we've got holes in our lives
Am C G
Well we've got holes we got holes but we carry on
x 2
Am C
Say we've got holes in our hearts
G D
Yeah we've got holes in our lives
Am C G
Well we've got holes we got holes but we carry on

Thats kinda the way the strumming pattern goes, may change slightly throughout the song but you get the picture. Just listen to the song and try and match yourself with it :D
Good Luck!
