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 mystery all day long
            Bm          Em
You tell me who gives a good God damn
    Bm             F#7
YOu never get out alive
         Bm                     Em
Don't go dreaming, don't go scheming
  Bm                Em         F#7
A man must test his metal in a crooked old 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

Don't take my word, just look skyward
They that dance must pay the fiddler
The sky is darkening, the dog's are barking
But the caravan moves on
You tell me who gives a good God damn
You never get out alive
Don't go dreaming, don't go scheming
A man must test his metal in a crooked old world

Starvin' in the belly....

As the crow flies, it's there that truth lies
At the bottom of a well
E-oleven goes to heaven
Must the dead live as the rain falls
Don't trust a bull's horn, a doberman's tooth
A runaway horse or me
Don't be greedy, don't be needy
If you live in hope
You're dancing to a terrible tune

Starvin' in the belly....
