   C#m               E


[verse: 1]
|C#m                     |E                     |C#m
 When I think of all the worries people seem to find
                      |E                        |C#m
 And how they're in a hurry to complicate their mind
                  |E                               |C#m
 By chasing after money and dreams that can't come true
                      |E                                |C#m
 I'm glad that we are different, we've better things to do
                       |E                      |C#m {let ring} |         |
 May others plan their future, I'm busy loving you              (1 2 3 4)
 
[chorus:]
|C#m                 |G#m            
 Sha-la-la-la-la-la, live for today
|C#m                 |G#m
 Sha-la-la-la-la-la, live for today
           |A            |B                   
 And don't worry 'bout tomorrow, hey, hey, hey
|C#m                 |G#m                |C#m
 Sha-la-la-la-la-la, live for today
                                live for today
 
[verse: 2]
                        |E                        |C#m 
 We were never meant to worry the way that people do
                     |E                        |C#m
 And I don't need to hurry as long as I'm with you
                        |E                     |C#m
 We'll take it nice and easy and use my simple plan
                     |E                         |C#m
 You'll be my loving woman, I'll be your loving man
                          |E                            |C#m {let ring} |         |
 We'll take the most from living, have pleasure while we can             (  2 3 4)
