Em Em
 
 
[Verse]

   Em                                         
My daddy was a lawyer who sold
   Am            Em
salvation to the church 
     Em                                                     
Your money's no good in heaven,
          D                 Em
but it's great down here on earth  
             C           Em
So let's get down in the dirt
          C           Em
Let's get down in the dirt
 
 
[Verse]

   Em                                                         
My granddad was a scholar in the 
          Am                  Em
school of heartbreak and hard work 
                                              
He didn't believe in heaven or 
    D            Em
damnation being worse
          C           Em
He's laid down in the dirt
        C           Em
He laid down in the dirt
 
 
[Chorus]

Em               
It can't be that 
C              G    D/F#
we're the only ones
Em               C           G D/F#
Born out of this ever-loving mud
Em              
It can't be that 
C              G     D/F#
we're the only ones
Em                     C           G D/F#
That grеw up from this ever-loving sun
 
 
[Instrumental]

Em Em
Em Em
 
 
[Verse]

   Em                                         
My mama was no angel,
        Am                Em
shе was more than just a nurse 
    Em                                                    
She thought it was a charity
           D                 Em
to keep us kids from getting hurt 
           C            Em
Can't stay clean in the dirt
        C            Em
Life is mean on this earth
 
 
[Verse]

  Em                                          
I have no occupation,
      Am                 Em
but I have some sense of worth
Em                                              
All the flowers blossom 
           D              Em
from what goes on in the dirt
         C           Em
So I get down in the dirt
          C           Em
Let's get down in the dirt
 
 
[Chorus]

Em              
It can't be that 
C              G     D/F#
we're the only ones
Em               C           G D/F#
Born out of this ever-loving mud
Em               
It can't be that 
C              G    D/F#
we're the only ones
Em                     C           G D/F#
That grеw up from this ever-loving sun
 
 
[Bridge]

Em             C                               
 They say that love is just 
     G              D/F#
the thing to save a man
Em           C                                 
 It's not so shallow, you must 
G                D/F#
dig to bring it out 
             C           Em
So let's get down in the dirt
          C           Em
Let's get down in the dirt
 
 
[Instrumental]

Em C G D/F# 
Em C G D/F# 
Em C G D/F# 
 
 
[Outro]

Em             C                 
 They say that love is just 
     G
the thing to save a man
Em           C                                 
 It's not so shallow, you must
G                D/F#
dig to bring it out 
             C           Em
So let's get down in the dirt
          C           Em
Let's get down in the dirt
