WHY SHOULD I WORRY? - Billy Joel

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

from Disney's Oliver & Co. soundtrack

 

Tabbed by: Cody

Email: betterliving420@mac.com

 

Tuning:EADGBe

 

This tab isn't of the entire song. Specifically I left out the "They love me at the

they adore me at the Ritz" because it's somewhat un-melodic and I couldn't really figure it out.

 

I wrote these tabs with timing in mind. I put the chords over the word it should be played on.

In some cases it's over the part of the word it should be played. example; F starts on

'lancey' in 'Delancey'.

 

 

Here are the chords I use:

 

E A D G B E

G 3-5-5-4-3-3-|

F 1-3-3-2-1-1-|

Eb x-6-8-8-8-6-|

Bb 6-8-8-7-6-6-|

D x-5-7-7-7-5-|

Eb7 x-6-8-6-8-6-|

Em 0-2-2-0-0-0-|

D* x-0-0-2-3-2-|

C x-3-2-0-1-0-|
