Verse:

D G

I feed from the bottom, you feed from the top

D G

I live upon morsels you happen to drop

 E A  

The coffee that somehow leaks out of your cup

 D G

If nothing comes down, then I'm forced to swim up

This pattern is used in all the verses

Chorus:

 D C G D C A

So I ask you why If I'm swimming by

Am Bm C D  

Don't you see anything that you'd like to try?

The jam goes something like this:

Am Bm C Bm Am Bm D  

then:

Am Bm C Bm Am etc. .......finally resolving to: Am Bm D

The outro is D & G alternated with the layered lyrics in the

background

Chorus Riff:

After the last "don't you see anything that you'd like to try", they hang on D for a few bars then Trey plays this part, and the jam part begins after this. When you get to the A flat part, the open D may sound a little funny at first

(since it's not in the Ab scale) but if you listen closely you can definitely hear the repeating open D throughout the entire part. The whole part is even eighth notes.
