  			C                             Am     G       C 
Yesterday I thought that I was low as I could get, 
                           Am        G     C 
I had hit rock bottom ever since you up and left. 
         F 
But this morning when I saw you with somebody else,  
                 C   F 
well needless to say: 
                      G            F 
That's when I started sinking even lower, 
       G      F               G 
And as far as where I am at today. 
 
 
        G 
There's two feet of topsoil, 
  F             C        G         F     C 
A little bit of bedrock, limestone in between. 
  G 
A fossilized dinosaur, 
  F               C 
A little patch of crude oil, 
  Am                            G 
A thousand feet of granite underneath... 
             C      G 
Then there's me. 
 
 
C                          Am     G        C 
I was kinda hopin' I could dig my way back out. 
                           Am      G        C 
A couple dozen roses maybe get you back somehow. 
        F 
But the love in your eyes as you talked to him  
                   C   F 
Today was plain to see. 
                 G 
So I ain't gonna get involved,  
    F                      G 
But should you change your mind, 
         F                     G 
Well you know right where I'll be. 
 
 
 
        G 
There's two feet of topsoil, 
  F             C        G         F     C 
A little bit of bedrock, limestone in between. 
  G 
A fossilized dinosaur, 
  F               C 
A little patch of crude oil, 
  Am                            G 
A thousand feet of granite underneath... 
             C   
Then there's me.

        G 
Well there's two feet of topsoil, 
  F             C        G         F     C 
A little bit of bedrock, limestone in between. 
  G 
A fossilized dinosaur, 
  F               C 
A little patch of crude oil, 
  Am                            G 
A thousand feet of granite underneath... 
      C       G 
Yeah, there's two feet of topsoil, 
  F             C        G         F     C 
A little bit of bedrock, limestone in between. 
  G 
A fossilized dinosaur, 
  F               C 
A little patch of crude oil, 
  Am                            G

             C 
And then there's me.
