[Verse 1]
Bm                   A    D
  I'm just a part of everything
  Bm                      
I stand on two legs and I 
A        D
learn to sing
     Bm
It's not what were said
     A          D
It's not what I heard
  Bm                     
I walk with my dog and I 
A              D
whistle with a bird
 
 
[Refrain]
Bm                A           D
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
Bm                   A          D
  I'm just a part of everything
Bm                A           D
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
Bm                   A          D
  I'm just a part of everything
 
 
[Verse 2]
Bm                      A     D
  So we think we really live apart
              Bm              
Because we’ve got two legs, 
  A            D
a brain, and a heart
Bm                 A    D
  We all belong to everything
       Bm              
To the octopus suckers 
        A         D
and the buzzard’s wing
       Bm                
To the elephant’s trunk 
    A             D
and buzzing bee’s sting
 
 
[Refrain]
Bm                A           D
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
Bm                   A    D
  I'm just a part of everything
Bm                   A    D
  I'm just a part of everything

[Verse 3]
  Bm                   A            D
I learn like a baby, I learn like a seed
       Bm                A      D
Spread out my tubers wherever I need
  Bm               A            D
I find any way to attach and connect
      Bm                 A          D
And I run like water, no cause or effect
 
 
[Refrain]
Bm                A           D
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
Bm                   A          D
  I'm just a part of everything

[Verse 4]
         Bm              
When the panting is over 
        A              D
and the warmth has run out
Bm                        A             D
  Love will be flowing, I have no doubt
         Bm                 
With the vehicle in neutral 
        A            D
and the ground to be faced
        Bm                     
I’ll be all laid to rest in my 
A            D
proper place
Bm                      A       D
  Into the roots in the old oak tree
      Bm                  
Where life can move freely 
       A      D
in and out of me
 
 
[Refrain]
Bm                A           D
Stuff coming out, stuff going in
Bm                   A    D
  I'm just a part of everything
