[A]
It takes a fool to know how I feel Feel like a fish [G] running [A] out of a spinning
reel Bite on a hook and [E] you'll know just what [A] I
mean That's what it's like at the bottom
[D]
[A] It took time to [D] come and make me [A] see That ain't what [D] it appears to [A] be
So look up the draw and the old spinning wheel Like a message [A] in a bottle
Like a message in a bottle [E] [A]
What [D] you say is a lie
[A] I've been lonely, I've [D] been bad But I've got to smile, it's not [E] easy

lonely,
[D] I've been bad But I've got to smile, it's [E] not easy
[A] Years and years I feel so dry With tears in my eyes I've been lonely
[E] You'll know how [A] I feel
Feel like a fish
Running out of spinning reel
Grabbing a hook
[E] And you'll know just what [A] I mean
That's what it's like
At the bottom
That's what [D] it's like
[A] At the bottom
That's what [D] it's like
At [A] the bottom
That's what it's like
[B] At the bottom
