Don’t worry about a thing

’Cause every little thing gonna be all right

Three little birds, perched by my doorstep

’Cause every little thing gonna be all right

Good tab, one of my favourite BM hits :)

This was one of the very first ever songs I learned on ukulele when I was a kid.

Thanks. This is a great beginner song to learn and a great song for intermediate / advanced playera to do ad-lib lead lines over. A great camp fire or sing a-along song.
