[Intro]
E

[Verse]
                  A
Somethin' 'bout a boat
               E
Sittin' on the sea
                 B
Out there in the wind
                E
Floatin' on the free
                    A
Take you 'round the world
               E     C#m
Bring you back home
            E     B
Gives a man hope
                  E
Somethin' 'bout a boat


[Verse]
                          A
Somethin' 'bout an old guitar
                     E
And the way it still sings
                     B
After all the smokey bars
               E
And the broken strings
                 A
Played a million songs
               E      C#m
Broke a lot of hearts
                 E      B
Made some people stars
                       E
Somethin' 'bout an old guitar


[Chorus]
                   A
Ain't it crazy how somethin'
                      E
Seems like nothin' at all
               B
Take a big old room
                E     E7
Make it seem so small
       A             Am        E    C#m
Seein' windows where there are walls
                     E       B
Makes a whole lot of something
                  E
Out of nothin' at all


[Verse]
                     A
Somethin' 'bout your dog
                E
Sittin' by your side
                 B
If you had a bad day
                        E
She ain't gonna run and hide
                    A
Just a-waggin' that tail
              E    C#m
Grinnin' that grin
                   E   B
Somethin' 'bout my dog
                  E
Makes her my best friend


[Chorus]
                   A
Ain't it crazy how somethin'
                      E
Seems like nothin' at all
               B
Take a big old room
                E     E7
Make it seem so small
       A             Am        E    C#m
Seein' windows where there are walls
                     E       B
Makes a whole lot of something
                  E
Out of nothin' at all

                     E       B
Makes a whole lot of something
                  E
Out of nothin' at all


[Outro]
                  A
Somethin' 'bout a dog
                          E
Somethin' 'bout an old guitar
                  B
Somethin' 'bout a boat
                 A B B A E
That gives a man hope
