Bm Life is whittled, life's a riddle D F#7 Man's a fiddle that life plays on Bm When the day breaks and the earth quakes D F#7 Life's a mistake all day long Bm Em You tell me who gives a good goddamn Bm F#7 You'll never get out alive Bm Em Don't go dreaming, don't go scheming Bm Em A man must test his mettle F#7 Bm In the crooked ol' world Bm Starvin' in the belly, starvin' in the belly Em Starvin' in the belly of a whale Bm Oh, you're starvin' in the belly, starvin' in the belly F#7 Bm Starvin' in the belly of a whale Bm Don't take my word, just look skyward D F#7 They that dance must pay the fiddler Bm Sky is darkening, dogs are barking D F#7 But the caravan moves on Bm Em You tell me who gives a good goddamn Bm F#7 You'll never get out alive Bm Em Don't go dreaming, don't go scheming Bm Em A man must test his mettle F#7 Bm In the crooked ol' world Bm Starvin' in the belly, starvin' in the belly Em Starvin' in the belly of a whale Bm Oh, we're starvin' in the belly, starvin' in the belly F#7 Bm Starvin' in the belly of a whale Bm As the crow flies, it's there the truth lies D F#7 At the bottom of the well Bm E-o-leven, goes to heaven D F#7 Bless the dead here as the rain falls Bm Em Don't trust a bull's horn, a doberman's tooth Bm F#7 A runaway horse or me Bm Em Don't be greedy, don't be needy Bm Em If you live in hope you're dancing F#7 Bm To a terrible tune Bm Starvin' in the belly, starvin' in the belly Em Starvin' in the belly of a whale Bm Oh, starvin' in the belly, starvin' in the belly F#7 Bm Starvin' in the belly of a whale
