F                      B                                      F
  I backed my Chevrolet out the driveway straight to the station
                                  B                               F
Filled it up with gas, grabbed a bag of ice, a Mountain Dew and a Slim Jim
         B                           F  B
Oh, and a couple of ice cold beers too
      F                           B
And I swung a little gravel rock, burnin' out that parking lot
F                              B
Found a long dirt road and the perfect river spot
                   F
And broke out them beach chairs
             B                                  F
And we sat down right there and I pulled out my guitar
        B
Started strumming on it


(chorus)
          F          B
I wrote a song 'bout absolutely nothing
        F                   B
With my toes tapping in the sand
         F           B
She sang along, just me and my baby hummin         F                   B
Nothing, nothing like just doin           F                B
Absolutely nothing (woo-hoo-hoo)
           F                B    Bb-B-Bb-B-Bb   
Absolutely nothing (woo-hoo-hoo)

F                                          B                             
  While she was skippin' rocks, grabbed my seat
                             F
And I was poppin' tops and I popped a string
              B                              F
Yeah man that sun must've been a hundred degrees
                B                                        F               B  
Oh but we had a cold river at our feet, 'n every now 'n then a cool cool breeze
        F                              B 
We were rollin' Skoal without our eyes closed,
                               F
Neither one of us was sayin' a word
                         B                                F
Nah, we weren't sayin' a word, we were just a-touchin' toes
                                  B 
Every now and then, she gave me a smile
                   F                          B
It was beer thirty all day long, all day long


(chorus)
          F          B
I wrote a song 'bout absolutely nothing
        F                   B
With my toes tapping in the sand
         F           B
She sang along, just me and my baby hummin         F                   B
Nothing, nothing like just doin           F                B
Absolutely nothing (woo-hoo-hoo)
           F                B
Absolutely nothing (woo-hoo-hoo)


(instrumental)
F  B, F  B, F  B  Db,


          F           B
I wrote a song 'bout absolutely nothing
        F                        B 
Singin' nah nah nah nah, nah nah
         F           B       
She sang along, just me and my baby humming
         F                    B
Nothing, nothing like just doing
           F                B 
Absolutely nothing (woo-hoo-hoo)
           F                B
Absolutely nothing (woo-hoo-hoo)
           F                B
Absolutely nothing (woo-hoo-hoo)
          F              B
Absolutely (woo-hoo-hoo) nothing
