Intro: (G5)  (G5)  (G5)  (G5)  (C5)  (G5)

Well I (G) used to be a rambler 
Runnin' 'round wild and (D) free - so free
And I had nothin' to tie me down
No no, I'd (C) come and go as I (G) please
But baby you were something
I thought that I was missin'
So I (C) gave up the life of my own
And now a (D) broken heart later
I'm sittin' here wishin'
That I'd (C) left well enough (G) alone

   Cause sometimes (C) somethin' 
   Ain't always better than (G) nothin'
   Cause when I had (D) nothin'
   I never felt so (G) doggone blue
   Yeah let me tell you now
   (C) Somethin' ain't always better than (G) nothin'
   Yeah, I'd rather have (D) nothin'
   That somethin' like (G) you

It's a sad situ(G)ation 
When you're losin' more than you (D) gain
Chalk it up to education, boy
One more time
And (C) come on in out of the rain
No one (G) really knows all the answers
And so we take our chances 
On this (C) crazy thing called love
But thanks to (D) you when I'm facin'
Any future romances
I'll (C) know just when to turn and (G) run

Repeat Chorus

   Yeah, I'd rather have (D) nothin'
   That somethin' like (G) you
