These are the Chords to "A Worm's Life" as best as I can figure 'em.
All are bar chords, except fot the chorus.
Chords are with guitar tuned down one step.
Intro (one bar each)
 G#   A#(A#sus, for the last two beats, if you're keen) 
 G#   A#(played sans bottom finger, with bar on the first fret)
Verses
   G#               A#
1. Though you think me cold and slimy
2. Sometimes it's   too hot for cooking
3. Then I was       plucked from the wet slime
             G#          A#   E(played on 7th fret)
I've got a     nice home....
One wants just a salad...
And dropped in tequila...
 F(8th fret)       A#  
Tasted your        best guacamole
And then comes the breeze in the evening
I lay in a         stupor for some time
                  G#                     A#A#sus      C(bottom finger off)
and siesta'd at     noon in the cool     of the    soil. (Chorus)
And men light       cigars and the scent fills the air. (Chorus)
Then one fine night I was gulped down    in a      shot. (Chorus)
CHORUS 
  E      C           A
A worm's life can be easy 
      E   C          A
If he lay low out of sight
BRIDGE(Instrumental part, 1 bar each)
G# A# F A# E C A
D               G                               Am
Then the rains  come, and the ground fills with water
And I must come up to the surface for           air (to verse 3.)
Outro (One bar each)
E C A A
E C Asus A
