Great song. Listen to the track for timing, muting etc. 

Em                 Am              
My, my, I know the well is dry 
Em                 Am  
Sing me a song one more time 
Em                 Am  
The wind is raging and the birds won't fly 
Em                 Am  
Nothing to eat and nowhere to hide 

Em                 Am  
Momma is gonna be alright 
Em                 Am  
Tell me the story just one more time 
Em                        Am  
Where the grass is green and the water runs wild 
Em                        Am  
Where forever is forever and no-one has to die 

(Chorus) 
Em                           Am  
Cause you can't eat the dirt even if you wanna 
Em                           Am  
Cause you can't eat the dirt even if you wanna 
Em                               Am  
Cause you can't breathe the dirt even if you wanna 
C                  D 
But you'll be in the dirt, you'll be the dirt 

(Verse) 
Em               Am 
Momma, I know I'm ready now 
Em               Am 
I'm not afraid, and you don't need to cry 
Em               Am 
Just close my eyes and wake up into a new life 
Em               Am 
Momma, there's no need to cry 

(Chorus) 
Em                       Am 
Because you can't eat the dirt even if you wanna 
Em                       Am 
Cause you can't eat the dirt even if you wanna 
Em                       Am 
Cause you can't breathe the dirt even if you wanna 
C                        D 
But you'll be in the dirt, you'll be the dirt
