Am
This sinking feeling sets,
                      F
It feels just like a hole inside your chest.
F 
I know you're thinking,
Am 
No, no, no, no, it is easier said than done,
                         F
But please let me attest.
F
I know it's hard.

                                  Am
You're feeling like you're trapped,
Am
But that's how you react,
                 F
When you cannot see the light.
F
But try and see the light.
F
I'm telling you,
Am
No, no, no, no,
Am
You're the only one
Am
Standing in your way,
               F       E 
Just take a breath, relax, and tell me…


[Chorus]
F    C
Why?
                G           Am 
Please tell me why do we worry?
F    C
Why?
           G        Am 
Why do we worry at all?
F    C 
Why?
              E7           Am 
Just tell me why do we worry?
        F                            E   E7             Am
When worry is never helping tell me why worry at all?


[Verse 2]
Am
Why do we insist,
                     F
On crossing bridges that do not exist?
F
Let's take these issues
Am
Step by step by step, to work it out,
Am                                   F
Day by day by day we're falling down,
     F
But life goes on.
     F
I've got some questions
Am
Are you sick of feeling' sorry?
(Uh huh)
Am
And people saying not to worry?
(Uh huh)
F
Sick of hearing this hakuna matata motto,
From people who won the lotto,
F
We're not that lucky.
Am
Have you noticed that you're breathing?
(Uh huh)
Am
Look around and count your blessings,
(Uh huh)
    F
So when you're sick of all this stressing and guessing I'm suggesting 
                      E
you turn this up and let them hear you sing it.

[Chorus]
F    C
Why?
                G           Am 
Please tell me why do we worry?
F    C
Why?
           G        Am 
Why do we worry at all?
F    C 
Why?
              E7           Am 
Just tell me why do we worry?
        F                            E    E7           Am
When worry is never helping tell me why worry at all?


[Bridge]
Am                                F
Chin up, quit actin' like you're half dead.
                Am
Tears can only half fill how you’re feeling.
F
Don't worry, be happy baby.
Am                     F
Stand up, life is too damn short,
That clock is ticking.
F
Man up, if you feel me,
Everybody sing it.


[Chorus]
(* Single Strum or clap)
F*    C*
Why?
                G*           Am* 
Please tell me why do we worry?
F*    C*

Why?
              E7*           Am* 
Just tell me why do we worry?
        F                            E    E7
When worry is never helping tell me why worry at all?

F    C
Why?
                G           Am 
Please tell me why do we worry?
F    C
Why?
           G        Am 
Why do we worry at all?
F    C 
Why?
              E7           Am 
Just tell me why do we worry?
        F                           
When worry is never helping tell me
 E
I'm not buying what they're selling
        F                            E        N.C.         
So if worry's never helping tell me why why worry at all?
