INTR0: Bm, A, G, A x3
Bm, A, G (hold)
VERSE 1:
DUp to my ears in bitter Atears
Can't believe I've Bmsunk this low
As I Awalk the plankton
Inner sanctum.
DGot outta Dodge,
Sailed on a Abon-less
Bon voyage.
You said BmNorth,
I headed South.
Tossed overAboard.
Good Lord, that's a really large Bmmouth...
CHORUS 1:
BmI'm Asleeping with Gfishes here,A
In the belly of the Bmwhale.
I'm Ahighly nuGtritious here,A
In the belly of the Bmwhale.
Bad Afood, lousy Gatmosphere.A
I don't wanna bellyBmache.
How Along is this Ggonna take?
VERSE 2:
DWoke up this morning kinda Ablue,
Thinking through that Bmage-old question:
AHow to exit a whale's digestion?
DIt might behoove me to be Aheaved.
Head out like a Bmhuman comet....
[SPOKEN:] "Hey guys you might not wanna rhyme with comet"
CHORUS 2:
BmI'm Asleeping with Gfishes here,A
In the belly of the Bmwhale.
I'm Ahighly nuGtritious here,A
In the belly of the Bmwhale.
I'm Aready to Greappear.A
I don't wanna bellyBmache.
How Along is this Ggonna take?
BRIDGE: (SOFT AND SLOW)
AM7End times, they come Grolling Daround.
Am7Enzymes, they come Gbreaking us Ddown to the Am7core.
The good Lord grants we Dall get a second chance.
CHORUS 2:
BmI'm Aone of the Gdishes here,A
In the belly of the Bmwhale.
They Asay I'm deGlicious here,A
In the belly of the Bmwhale.
Lord, Aplease make him Gchuck it all.
AIt's a gut call
BmIn the Abelly of the Gwhale.
BRIDGE 2:
AI'm in the belly of the whale.
BmIn the Abelly of the Gwhale.
AI'm in the belly.
BmIn the Abelly of the Gwhale.
AI'm in the belly of the whale.
BmIn the Abelly of the Gwhale.
AI'm in the belly...
VERSE 3: REPEATS THESE CHORDS (Bm, A, G, A)
In the belly of the whale
In an underwater jail
It's a tight squeeze.
It's a-gettin' to me,
But it's roomier
Than the tail.
Hey, sailor,
Got my flow free
Like a salmon to the sea
From the L.A. Symphony.
I'm a paddleboat
Paddlin' in their wake,
A fake free-styler,
But my unemployment pays.
I'm avoiding cliches
Like "whale of a tale" stale
Or "you can't keep
A good man down,"
'Cause you can
And I've been there, man.
But I've been expectorated.
I'm elated!
I'm free like Willie!
Happy Day!
Oops,
That's a bit of a cliche.
In the belly... (fades out)
