(banjo intro)  (Chorus) 
    C                                 G7   
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song 
C  F                      C 
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song 
                                 A 
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song 
            D          G7              C 
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long 
 
 
                              G7     C 
Got myself a Cadillac thirty dollars down 
F                            C     G7           C 
Got myself a brand new house five miles out of town 
                                     G7     C 
Got myself a gal named Sue treats me really fine 
              G7                          C 
Yes, she's my baby and I love her all the time 
 
 (Repear Chorus) 
 
 
                                   G7            C 
I've been away on a business trip travelin' all around 
F                                 C         G7     C 
I got a gal and her name is Sue, prettiest gal in town 
                                   G7       C 
She sets my mind to worryin' every time I'm gone 
              G7                            C 
I'll be home tonight so I won't be worried long 
 
(Repear Chorus) 
 
 
                                        G7         C 
Well Bobby's in the livin' room holdin' hands with Sue 
F                              C           G7      C 
Nickies at that big front door vowin'; to come on through 
                                                  A 
Well I'm here in the closet, oh lord what shall I do 
              D           G7              C 
We're worried now but we won't be worried long
