[Verse 1]
Sometime I wonder why
You do these things to me
Sometime I worry girl
That you ain't in love with me
Sometime I stay out late
Yeah, I'm having fun
Yes, I guess you know by now
That you ain't the only one
Yeah-hey, oh, Baby
Uh, sweet things that you promised me babe
Seemed to go up in smoke
Yeah, vanish like a dream
Babe, I wonder why
You do these things to me

[Chorus 1]
Because I'm worried
I just can't seem to find my way
Baby

[Verse 2]
Ooh, the nights I spent
Just waiting for the sun, yeah
Just like your burned out cigarette
You threw away my love
Why did you do that baby?
I wonder why
Why you do these things to me?
Well, oh

[Chorus 2]
I'm worried
Lord, I'll find out anyway
Sure going to find myself a girl someday
'Till then I'm worried
Yeah, I just can't seem to find my way
Ooohh

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Yeah, I'm a hard working man
When did I ever do you wrong?
Yeah, I get all my money baby, yah
Bring it, bring it all home
Yeah, I'm telling the truth, yeah
Well, sweet things, sweet things
That you promised me
Well, I'm worried, I just can't seem to find my way

[Outro]
Baby, I'm worried about you, yeah
I'm worried about you, yeah
Tell you something now
Worried about you (aw yeah)
Worried about you, child (aw yeah)
I'm worried about you, woman (aw yeah)
That's gone, tell you somethin' now
I'm worried about you, child (aw yeah)
Worried about you (aw yeah), yeah
Yeah, I'm worried
Lord, I'll find out anyway
Sure as hell I'm going to find that girl someday
Until then I'm worried
Lord, I just can't seem to find my way

Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones led the “British Invasion” along with The Beatles and were so successful their influence can be seen in arguably every rock ‘n’ roll band that followed.

Three of the current members have been there since the band’s singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, who write the majority of the band’s catalogue and also produced some albums as The Glimmer Twins; and drummer Charlie Watts. The fourth official member is guitarist Ronnie Wood, who has been there since 1975 (the keyboardist and bassist who play in studio and live are usually not listed). The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums, and even as age caught up on them, continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit, with big stadium tours continuing through the 1990s, 2000s and into the 2010s.
