I've transcribed this version of Big Eyed Fish from the "Busted Stuff" CD
 version, NOT "The Lillywhite Sessions".  Remember, as with many Dave
Matthews'songs it's usually easiest to seperate your head from what you
are singing & what you are playing ~ enjoy.

[Verse]
Look at this big-eyed . . . . . . . . . . . sea oh
How it dreams . . . . . . . . . . . through the breeze
So one day . . . . . . . . . . . up on to the beach
Now he's dead  . . . . . . . . . . . where a fish should be
----------------------------------------------
[Chorus]  [Em]    [C]    [G]    [Bm]
But oh God
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
-------------------------------------------------------
[Verse]
You see this  . . . . . . . . . . . not to breathe
He turned red  . . . . . . . . . . . , colorful indeed
No matter how  . . . . . . . . . . .  man would not concede
And now he's dead  . . . . . . . . . . .  you got to breathe
-------------------------------------------------------------
[Chorus-2X]  [Em]    [C]    [G]    [Bm]
But . . . . God
Under . . . . . . . . . life
Things . . . . . . . . . . . . . side

But . . . . God
Under . . . . . . . . . life
Things . . . . . . . . . . . . . side

[G]  [C]  [G]  [D/F#] - [Em] [C] [G] [D/F#]      
No way  ---------------  no way
No way  ---------------  out of here
-----------------------------------------------------------
[Verse]
You see the little monkey  . . . . . . . . . . .  tree
One day decided  . . . . . . . . . . . off to the city
But look at  . . . . . . . . . . . in the street
As good as  . . . . . . . . . . .  up your tree
--------------------------------------------------------------
[Chorus]
[End]
