Id Rather Have Nothing chords by Garth Brooks

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: EADGBE

Verse 1:
No Chord
Jumped in the truck and headed for Kansas
G+G
Morning found me in Port Aransas
C majorC
Sipping on rum
    G+G
In that warm Texas sun
   G+G
I've never been good at keeping direction
   G+G
And I believe schedules are one of life's worst infections
   C majorC
And I gotta be free
      D MajorD
'Cause I'd rather have nothing
    C majorC               G+G
Than a whole lot of something I don't need

Chorus 1:
  D MajorD
I'd rather have nothing
    C majorC
Than a whole lot of something
   G+G             D MajorD
That don't fit the life that I lead
 D MajorD         C majorC
Material things and all that wealth brings
   G+G           D MajorD
Just must be for some other breed
    G+G
'Cause life ain't about the worries and doubts
                 C majorC
That comes with the lust and the greed
    G+G
And I'd rather have nothing
    D MajorD      C majorC         G+G
Than a whole lot of something I don't need

Solo:
C majorC G+G D MajorD C majorC G+G

Verse 2:
 G+G
I spent that evening in a tavern in town
    G+G
With a bunch of my new friends my money brought 'round
   C majorC
And I told them 'bout you
      G+G
And all the hell we'd been through
G+G
Everyone there had a similar story
G+G
Years full of tears from all the heartache and worry
  C majorC
And we all agreed
     D MajorD
That we'd rather have nothing
    C majorC                G+G
Than a whole lot of something we don't need

Chorus 2:
  D MajorD
I'd rather have nothing
    C majorC
Than a whole lot of something
   G+G             D MajorD
That don't fit the life that I lead
 D MajorD         C majorC
Commitments and strings and all that love brings
   G+G           D MajorD
Just must be for some other breed
    G+G
'Cause life ain't about the worries and doubts
                 C majorC
That comes with the lust and the greed
    G+G
And I'd rather have nothing
    D MajorD               E minorEm
Than a whole lot of something I don't need
   C majorC
Yeah Yeah
    G+G
Oh I'd rather have nothing
    D MajorD      C majorC         G+G
