I only recently learned about this song by John Mayer, and immediately fell in love with it. I don’t usually record covers, but this was one I just had to.
I’m also proud that I created the entire background track from scratch, which is a skill I’m slowly building.
Age of Worry – John Mayer
Close your eyes and clone yourself
Build your heart and army To defend your innocence While you do everything wrongDon’t be scared to walk alone
Don’t be scared to like it There’s no time that you must be home So sleep where your darkness fallsAlive in the age of worry
Smile in the age of worry Go wild in the age of worry And sing Worry, why should I care?No your fight is not with them
Yours is with your time here Dream your dreams but don’t pretend Make friends with who you areGive your heart and change your mind
You’re allowed to do it ‘Cause God knows it’s been done to you And somehow, you got through itAlive in the age of worry
Smile in the age of worry Go wild in the age of worry And sing Worry, why should I care?Rage in the age of worry
Act your age in the age of worryRage in the age of worry
Worry, get out of here.
Worry, get out of here.
And sing, Worry, get out of here!Worry, get out of here.
Worry, get out of here.
