Em               C 
Underneath the bridge
    Em                 C 
The tarp has sprung a leak
        Em             C 
And the animals I've trapped
     Em             C 
Have all become my pets
        Em             C 
And I'm living off of grass
         Em                  C 
And the drippings from the ceiling
Em                C 
It's okay to eat fish
             Em              C 
'Cause they don't have any feelings

Chorus:
Em                 C   Em  C

Something in the way, yeah, mmm
Em                 C   Em  C 
Something in the way, mmm
Em                C          Em  C 
Something in the way, yeah, mmm

Underneath the bridge
