Settle Down Chords

   
This is a great song by No Doubt off of their album 'Push and Shove' :)It's pretty easy too!

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.



A           F#m
What's your twenty? Do you copy?
A            F#m
Where's your brain? Do you copy?
C#m            E
Checking in to check you out,
C#m                  E
Concerned about your whereabouts,
A    F#m
Copy that, Do you copy?
A             F#m
You're acting strange, Do you copy?
C#m                E
So tell me what is going on,
A           E
So heavy, I bet



Bm       D
I'm fine, nothing's gonna knock this girl down,
A                       F#m
I'm hella positive, for real, I'm all good, no,
Bm       D
I'm fine, nothing's gonna knock this girl down,
A                      E
It's kinda complicated that's for sure,


            Bm                      E
But you can see in my eyes, you can read on my lips,
    A               A7      F#m
I'm trying to get a hold on this,
             Bm
And I really mean it this time,
        E
And you know it's such a trip,
Bm                        E
Don't get me started, I'm trying to get a hold on this,



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


A            F#m
No big deal, I can handle it,
A                    F#m
It'll bounce off me, I can handle it,
C#m                           E
Been around the block before, doesn't matter anymore,
A                 F#m
Here we go again, are you kidding me?
A         F#m
Are you insane? Are you kidding me?
C#m             E
Underneath the avalanche,
   A     E
so heavy again,
