Settle Down by No Doubt 




                                Settle Down 






There's only one chord that I don't know 
the name of, the A5 which I play: 002200, it's just an A major with an open B. 


A
Get get get in line, and settle down
A
Get in line, and settle down


A     A            A                    G

A     A            A                    G
It'll bounce off me (I can handle it)
A     A            A                    G
Been around the block before
A     A            A                    G
Doesn't matter anymore
A     A            A                    G
Here we go again (Are you kidding me?)
A     A            A                    G
Are you insane? (Are you kidding me?)

version 2







For the chorus, ("get in line and settle down"), you can just play an A chord over and
over, but it also sounds quite nice with the added chords. The same goes for the verse
("what's your twenty?"), you can play an A chord all the way through, but an F#m chord 
can sounds nice if you can fit it in :)

The middle section (I'm a rough and tough, I'm a rough and tough,) sounds quite nice
picked, rather than strummed.

Also, it doesn't really matter, if you play D instead of Bm, they sound pretty much the
same anyway 






A                                 F#m
Get, Get, Get, in line and settle down,
A                                 F#m
Get, Get, Get, in line and settle down.
