Standard (EADGBE)

I don't need to know,

 Why the oceans blue or how the flowers grow.

I don't need to live,

 Waiting on someone to forgive me for my sins.

 Like my father before me,

 I'm a working man, a working man.

 But I don't need to believe,

 In the something that won't save my sanity.

NOTE: When you hear a slight variation whilst Dallas is strumming the Am chord it is this:

Key:

x = Mute or Don't play that string.

(Chorus)

The chorus is incredibly easy all you need is:

NOTE: After the last Am you play during the verse you basically strum x00000 twice

the first word in the chorus (No) then play the G chord. (If you can reach it you can play an

or you can just go straight into the G if you want)

But the chorus is just:

 No I don't need I don't need to know, no,

 I don't need to know oh, oh, oh, oh.

 I don't need to know oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

 I don't need to know oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

How easy is that!

(Verse 2)

The second verse is the same as the the first pretty much the same 3 chords in the same pattern:

It goes:

I don't want to live,

 In a world where faces change from day to day.

 And I don't want my life to be,

So full of doubt and misery.

 The years now pass without a trace.

 It's something that I'm learning to embrace.

 How most bad nights are spent awake.

 Thinking about how I don't want to live that way.

(Chorus)

 No I don't want I don't want to live, no,

 I don't want to li e, e, ea, e, ive.

 I don't want to li e, e, e, ea, e, ive,

 I don't want to li e, e, e, ea, ive.

(Verse 3)

For the most part the same as the other verses except for the last line:

I don't know but I've been told,

 That if you don't believe, the devil owns your soul.

 Well if this is the truth, then to hell I'll go.

 'Cos I don't need to know.
