Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

one bar each)

(A#sus, for the last two beats, if you're keen)

Verses

 1. Though you think me cold and slimy

2. Sometimes it's too hot for cooking

3. Then I was plucked from the wet slime

I've got a nice home....

One wants just a salad...

And dropped in tequila...

Tasted your best guacamole

And then comes the breeze in the evening

I lay in a stupor for some time

and siesta'd at noon in the cool of the soil. (Chorus)

And men light cigars and the scent fills the air. (Chorus)

Then one fine night I was gulped down in a shot. (Chorus)

Chorus

 A worm's life can be easy

 If he lay low out of sight

Bridge

Instrumental part, 1 bar each)

Then the rains come, and the ground fills with water

And I must come up to the surface for air (to verse 3.)

Outro
