Verse - Play intro/verse riff:

Look at this big eyed fish swimming in the sea oh
How it dreams to be a bird swoop and diving through the breeze
So one day caught a big old wave up on to the beach
Now he's dead you see beneath the sea is where a fish should be

---------------------

Chorus Em - C - G - Bm:

Em     C
But oh God

G          Bm
Under the weight of life

Em     C    G               Bm
Things seem brighter on the other side

Verse - Play intro/verse riff:

You see this crazy man decided not to breathe
He turned red and blue - purple, colorful indeed
No matter how his friends begged and pleaded the man would not concede
And now he's dead you see the silly man should know you got to breathe

Verse - Play intro/verse riff:

You see the little monkey sitting up in his monkey tree
One day decided to climb down and run off to the city
But look at him now lost tired living in the street
As good as dead you see what a monkey does stay up your tree
