Capo on 1st fret (sounding key minor) Chords: : 224432 (alternate between 5th and 6th bass strings) : x00232 (alternate between 4th and 5th) : 242322 (alternate between 5th and 6th) : 022000 (alternate between 5th and 6th) Life is whittled life's a riddle Man's a fiddle that life plays on When the day breaks and the earth quakes Life's a mystery all day long You tell me who gives a good God damn You'll 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, starvin' in the belly Starvin' in the belly of a whale Oh you're starvin' in the belly, starvin in the belly Starvin' in the belly of a whale
