[Chorus]
         A
Don't worry, about a thing
       D                              A
'Cause every little thing, gonna be alright
               A
Singin' don't worry, about a thing
       D                              A
'Cause every little thing, gonna be alright
 
[Verse]
              A
Rise up this mornin'
               E
Smile with the rising sun
             A               D
Three little birds sit by my doorstep
        A
Singin' sweet songs
            E
Of melodies pure and true
        D                      A
Singin', this is my message to you-ou-ou
 
[Chorus]
              A
Singin' don't worry, about a thing

'Cause every little thing, (is) gonna be alright
               A
Singin' don't worry, (don't worry) about a thing
       D                              A
'Cause every little thing, gonna be alright

Rise up this mornin'

Three little birds sit by my doorstep
        A
Singin' sweet songs
            E
Of melodies pure and true
        D                      A
Singing, this is my message to you-ou-ou
