WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Guess Who - Straighten Out Chords | Ver. 1
Tuning: Standard
One very simple song with a couple of interesting jazz chords. The song has a great
jazz feel to it. My favorite from
the Road Food album. The chords are complimenting the piano. Lyrics from

E7 E7 Am7 Am7
Well you asked me to be your escort baby
E7 E7 Am7 Am7
On Graduation Day
E7 E7 Am7 Am7
Wrote me a note and here's what you wrote
E7 Eb7 D7
You cried boo hoo hoo
And your tears were killin' me babe
E7 Eb7 D7
Wah wah wah.
E7 E7 F7 F7 F#7 F#7 F7 F7
I think you better straighten out
E7 E7 F7 F7 F#7 F#7 F7 F7
Gimme a break
E7 E7 F7 F7 F#7 F#7 F7 F7 E7
Straighten out ... if you can
E7 F7 F#7 F7
I heard you knockin' but you couldn't come in
E7 F7 F#7 F7
And we went walkin' down the road to the bin
E7 Eb7 D7
That was when you were ten, now is now, then was then
E7 Eb7 D7
Ha ha ha.
E7 E7 Am7 Am7
Well I telephoned you and I asked if I might just happen to be your chaperone
E7 E7 Am7 Am7
To the Highbridge comin'-out do
E7 E7 Am7 Am7
You said goodbye and I began to cry
E7 Eb7 D7
I said boo hoo hoo
'Cause your leavin' was shakin' me up
E7 Eb7 D7
Wah wah wah.
E7 E7 F7 F7 F#7 F#7 F7 F7
I think you better straighten out.
Gimme a break
E7 E7 F7 F7 F#7 F#7 F7 F7 E7
Straighten out ... if you can
E7 F7 F#7 F7
I heard you knockin' but you couldn't come in
E7 F7 F#7 F7
And we went walkin' down the road to the bin
E7 Eb7 D7
That was when you were ten, now is now, then was then
E7 Eb7 D7
Ha ha ha.
The Laughters shakin me up
Bo Whoo Whooin
E7 Eb7 D7
Wa Wa Wa
Everybody Cryin' Cryin'
E7 Eb7 D7
Ha ha ha
E7 Eb7 D7
Boo who who
And The Cryins Killing me
E7 Eb7 D7
Wa Wa Wa
And The laughter killin me
E7 Eb7 D7
Ha ha ha
