Hollow Ground

Verse 1

Come down the hollow where the pine trees lean

Past the rusted sign nobody reads

There's a crooked steeple and a broken bell

And a hundred names I know too well

Pre-Chorus

You came here hunting for a crown

Something shiny to drag around

Chorus

If you come here seeking glory

I got some bad news

Bad news

If you come here seeking glory

I got some bad news for you

Verse 2

My daddy dug ditches in the red clay mud

Sold his back for a pocket of blood

The preacher drank and the river ran thin

And the devil kept a tab on every sin

Pre-Chorus

You want a throne you want a name

Boy they all end up the same

Chorus

If you come here seeking glory

I got some bad news

Bad news

If you come here seeking glory

I got some bad news for you

Bridge

Glory glory hollow ground

Glory glory nothing found

Glory glory all you lose

Glory glory bad news

Guitar Solo

Chorus

If you come here seeking glory

I got some bad news

Bad news

If you come here seeking glory

I got some bad news for you
