Tone: [Em]
[Em]Oh worries are about, and he[G]heavy on his gut
[Em]He feels he's being
punished, for [G]the bad things he has done
[Am]Help him Jesus, help him, send [Em]him down a sign
'cos [Am]he feel's he is getting ol[D]old before his time [Em]
[Em]And he is sitting at the table, the t[G]table he has set
[Em]He is begging for the courage to redeem s[G]some self respect
[Am]Help him Jesus, help him, walk[Em]walk along the line
'cos [Am]he feel's he is getting old [D]before his time [Em]
Chorus:
[G]He says it takes a worried man to s[Em]sing a worried song
[G]It takes a worried man to s[Em]sing a worried song
[G]It takes a worried man to si[Em]sing a worried song
He is worri[Am]worried now but he won't[D]won't be worried long [Em]
He[Em]He broke her heart on a warm and [G]sunny day
Oh [Em]he broke her heart on a warm and[G]and sunny day
[Am]When she heard what he had to say
[Em]All that sun soon went away
[Am]He broke her heart on a [D]cold and w[Em]windy day
[G]He says it takes a worried man
[Em]To sing a worried song
[G]It takes a worried man
[Em]To sing a worried song
[G]It takes a worried man
[Em]To sing a worried song
[Am]He is worried now
[D]But he won't be worried[Em]worried long
[Em]And so he moves towards his sweet redeeming[G]redeeming light
Shadows[Em]Shadows cast but none obscure his[G]his sight
And they[Am]they wonder where he is going
While he is[Em]is knelt before her throne
[Am]Refusing to go d[D]down without a [Em]fight
[G]He says it takes a worried man
[Em]To sing a worried song
[G]It takes a worried man
[Em]To sing a worried song
[G]It takes a worried man
[Em]To sing a worried song
[Am]He is worried now
[D]But he won't be worried[Em]worried long
