As recorded by Sweet (From the 1974 Album DESOLATION BOULEVARD) [Intro] D5 C5 D5 C5 D5
       C5 D5   D5  C5 B5 Bb5 A5  D5
Hit me

        C5 D5   C5 B5 Bb5
Come on

A5      D5  C5 D5   C5 B5 Bb5
Alright

A5              D5  C5 D5   C5 B5 Bb5 A5
Do you hear me?
[Verse 1]
        D5                                            C5 B5 Bb5 A5
So your old man went and called you a degenerate bum

        D5                                         C5 B5 Bb5 A5
And you stood there crockin' on your cinnamon gum

         D5                                      C5 B5 Bb5 A5
And your Ma was knockin' at your sister's brains

        D5                                             C5 B5 Bb5 A5
And you couldn't help thinkin' what she hoped to gain

A5
Just then that freak walked in the door

A5
And knocked me to the floor

A5
You said: "Hey man, you're on some kind of trip"

A5
He said: "Don't give me no lip"
[Chorus]
     G5                    D5
Just turn it down, come on turn it down

        G5                   F5
I can't take no more of that God awful sound

       A5                 D5    C5 D5   C5 B5 Bb5 A5
So for God's sake turn it down
[Verse 2]
        D5                                        C5 B5 Bb5 A5
Now the suspicious minds of your learned friends

         D5                                     C5 B5 Bb5 A5
Will eat away at your kind 'til the music ends

        D5                                         C5 B5 Bb5 A5
And the creep that taught you everything you know

         D5                                         C5 B5 Bb5 A5
Will hypocritically ask you what the hell you know

A5
He'll go out and mess around, then go home without a sound

A5
You said: "Hey man, you're some kinda monk"

A5
He said: "Listen here you punk"
[Chorus]
     G5                    D5
Just turn it down, come on turn it down

        G5                   F5
I can't take no more of that God awful sound

       A5                 D5
So for God's sake turn it down
[Guitar Solo] F5 A5 Bb5 C5 D5 A5 Bb5 C5 D5 A5 Bb5 C5 D5 [Chorus]
G5                 D5
Turn it down, just turn it down

        G5                     D5
Come on turn it down, I said: "Turn it down"

                 G5                 D5
Come on, come on turn it down, just turn it down

        G5                   F5
I can't take no more of that God awful sound

       A5                 D5
So for God's sake turn it down
[Outro] A5 C5 D5
