1.  Walking through the jungle,

    pulling off leeches.
                               A
    I've got some freinds like that.
           E        
    If you pull them off too quickly,

    you're going to keep bleeding
                        A
    (from the leeches I mean).

    Once they get attached, never want to let go.

         searching from head to toe.

         They'll fall from trees, crawl past your knees.

         You don't want to kno- o-   o-       ow.
         B   A             G#m      F#m
         Uh oh uh - o    - o        -oh


2.	Everthing was so wet.
	I can never forget
	what they did to me.
	Always being afraid
	to look at my legs
	after crossing a stream.
	I never thought I'd want to go home.

            kno-  o-   o-     ow,   oooh.
