AmThis sinking feeling sets,
It feels just like a hFole inside your chest.

AmNo, no, no, no, it is easier said than done,
But please let me attest.F  
FI know it's hard.
You're feeling like you're trappedAm,
AmBut that's how you react,
When you cannot sFee the light.
FBut try and see the light.
FI'm telling you,
AmNo, no, no, no,
AmYou're the only one
AmStanding in your way,
Just take a breFath, relEax, and tell me…

Capo 4

[Verse 1]

This sinking feeling sets,

It feels just like a hole inside your chest.

I know you're thinking,

No, no, no, no, it is easier said than done,

But please let me attest.

I know it's hard.

You're feeling like you're trapped,

But that's how you react,

When you cannot see the light.

But try and see the light.

I'm telling you,

No, no, no, no,

You're the only one

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 E E7 Am

When worry is never helping tell me why worry at all?

[Verse 2]

Why do we insist,

On crossing bridges that do not exist?

Let's take these issues

Step by step by step, to work it out,

Am F

Day by day by day we're falling down,

But life goes on.

I've got some questions

Are you sick of feeling' sorry?

(Uh huh)

And people saying not to worry?

(Uh huh)

Sick of hearing this hakuna matata motto,

From people who won the lotto,

We're not that lucky.

Have you noticed that you're breathing?

(Uh huh)

Look around and count your blessings,

(Uh huh)

So when you're sick of all this stressing and guessing I'm suggesting

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

When worry is never helping tell me why worry at all?

[Bridge]

Am F

Chin up, quit actin' like you're half dead.

Tears can only half fill how you’re feeling.

Don't worry, be happy baby.

Am F

Stand up, life is too damn short,

That clock is ticking.

Man up, if you feel me,

Everybody sing it.

[Chorus]
