Intro: A   E   A   E 

A                         E                                 A 
I don't know much about much, and what I don't know I don't say, 

Dm                         A  E7    A 
and when I have nothing to say I'm quiet. 

D                         A                      E7                  A 
If there's occasion to holler I'll try it, I can make noise with the best, 

Dm                              A  E7    A 
But most of the rest of the time I'm quiet. 

A                            E                           A       
I've made mistakes in the past, things that I blush over yet, 

Dm                          A  E7     A  
but I hardly ever regret having been quiet. 

A               E                         A 
I have a TV at home, and I do truly enjoy it. 

Dm                      A       E7   A 
I can just leave it alone, and it's quiet. 

D                         A                       E7                  A 
If there's occasion to holler I'll try it, I can make noise with the best, 

Dm                           A  E7    A 
But most of the rest of the time I'm quiet. 
         
A                    E                      A 
I'm not unsociable no, people are fine in repose, 

Dm                           A   E7     A 
somehow my favorites are those who are quiet. 

A                        E                      A        
Quiet's a wonderful sound, better than oboe or fiddle 

Dm                          A             E7    A 
Someday I'm going to be found in the middle of quiet. 

D                         A                     E7                    A 
If there's occasion to holler I'll try it, I can make noise with the best, 

Dm                          A  E7     A 
But most of the rest of the time I'm quiet. 

A                       E                             A 
Sing me a song of the sea, soft as the breath of the breeze, 

Dm                           A    E7    A 
sing me to sleep and then please keep quiet.
