D#     Fm           D#                 Fm         D#  Fm Gm G#
I was tromping the jungles, there was nothing to find
D#       Fm         D#              Fm        D#    Fm Gm G#
No mastodon so that I could be the guy that provides
Cm                   G7
With empty hands, I headed on home
G#                               F                    D# A# G#
Live long enough, you're gonna choke on a bone, hey, hey

F    D# A#
Hey, hey
                            D#  A#
That's just the way that it goes

Chorus:
         D# Fm             D#       Fm
Now I'm sinking in the La Brea Tar Pits
      D#            Fm                       Gm         G#
And I don't want to die 'cause there's still so much to give
    D#  Fm             D#         Fm
I'm sinking, could you give me a lift?
      D#         Fm                  Gm         G#
Wanna make an escape but don't know where to begin

Each time I wriggle, I sink a little deeper, ah, damn
So let me try to persuade you all to lend me a hand
Good with a spear and settling fights
Do anything for the good of the tribe, hey, hey

Could you throw me a rope?
(Throw me a rope)
