Am             G  D     [riff 1]
I've got a lot to learn 
Am          G      D                   E
And bridges that I still have not burned
Am      G      D   [riff 1]
UntiI I find a way 
Am        G      D               E
I'll only end up back where I am today but 

Am              G    D
I don't know anything, 
             E           Am  G  D  E
I don't know anything at all
Am              G    D
I don't know anything, 
E           Am   G  D  E
Not much at all

Am  G  D  E  [twice]

I know that I ain't smart
I get languid up in the strings of my heart 
So tight I cannot breathe 
I'd cut them if I knew what was good for me but 

I don't know anything 
I don't know anything at all
I don't know anything 
Not much at all

Am  G  D  E  [four times]

I don't know anything
Anything at all
I don't know anything
No nothing, no nothing
I don't know anything
I don't know anything at all

Am  G  D  E  [twice]

I must be the king of fools,
A court jester making rhymes in nursery school, 
Like: "Jack be nimble, Jack be quick 
You can blow my candle, Jack, if you can
teach me how to light my wick 'cos 

I don't know anything 
I don't know anything at all
I don't know anything 
Not much at all

I don't know anything
Anything at all
I don't know anything
No nothing, no nothing
I don't know anything
I don't know much at all

[Drums]
I don't know anything
I don't know anything
[Bass in]
I don't know anything, nothing at all

[Whole band]
I don't know anything...
