WHY SHOULD I WORRY? - Billy Joel

from Disney's Oliver & Co. soundtrack
Tabbed by: Cody

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-|

D x-5-7-7-7-5-|
Eb7 x-6-8-6-8-6-|
Em 0-2-2-0-0-0-|

Just so you know, it's "savoir-faire" not saviore or savoire. It's French for "know how to do." :)
This is like a semi-tone higher than it should be...
