verse 1 
 
G                 D 
Here's a song for Cousin Joe  
   G                   C 
We saw him come and we saw him go  
    G                    D 
And that's about all you need to know  
          G          D          G    D 
'Cause he never done nothing at all  

verse 2 
 
   G               D 
He never wined, he never dined  
   G                   C 
He never loved, and he never pined  
    G                D 
And all he said was 'Never mind 
  G          D          G  
I never done nothing at all' 

C      G 
Cousin Joe, he was there  
D          G 
Happy as a millionaire  
C          G 
How I wish I could share  
    A             D 
The secret of his savoir faire 
 

 
verse 3 
 
   G                D 
He never served, he never fought  
   G                   C 
He wasn't dumb, but he wasn't taught  
   G                      D 
He wasn't shunned, but he wasn't sought  
          G          D          G    D 
'Cause he never done nothing at all  


G   D   G   C

C      G 
Cousin Joe, he was there  
D          G 
Happy as a millionaire  
C          G 
How I wish I could share  
    A             D 
The secret of his savoir faire
  


verse 4 
 
    G                  D 
And when they laid his bones to rest  
     G                    C 
They asked his friend who knew him best 
    G                 D 
And on that stone the mason dressed  
         G          D          G       E7 
Was, 'He never done nothing at all, in style  
   G          D          G        E7 
He never done nothing at all, but while  
   G          D          G         E7 
He never done nothing at all, he'd smile  
          E          D          G 
'Cause he never done nothing at all'
