Let's Straighten It Out chords by
Etta James
Etta James

N/A
Verse 1
Dm
Am

Everybody's got to straighten out somethings,

sometime
Dm

I don't care how old you are

or how young you are

But I want you to think about

the last time
Am

That you heard somebody say,

"Let's straighten it out"
Dm

And I'll bet it was a man that said it,

why?

Because most of the time it's a man
Am

Who makes it crooked in

the first place

You see, men have a tendency to
Dm

take women for granted

But I believe, a woman feels

things deeper than a man
Am

And I believe, that a woman loves

stronger than a man
Dm

Sit yourself down and talk to me
Am

Tell me what's on your mind

Don't you keep on telling me
Dm

everything's okay

'Cause if it was,
Am

you wouldn't be crying

You've been tossin' and turnin'
Dm

in your sleep lately, babe
Am

Sittin' around poutin' all day long

How in the hell do you expect
Dm

me to understand?
Am

When I don't even know,

don't know what's wrong, yeah
Dm

Let's straighten it out
Am

Ah baby, let's straighten it out
Dm

Honey, let's straighten it out
Gsus4
Am
Dm
Am
Dm

Ah, let's straighten it out

Am

Oh baby, let's straighten it out

Can't hear you honey, ah,
Dm

let's straighten it out
Gsus4
Am

C'mon, let's straighten it out
Dm

For the last five nights, honey
Gsus4
Dm

When we went to bed,
Gsus4
Am

I could tell something wasn't right
Dm

When you turned your back on me
Gsus4
Dm

And you covered your head,
Am

didn't even say goodnight
Dm

If you're tired and don't

wanna be bothered, baby

Just say the words,
Am

I'll leave you alone
Dm

Instead of laying there,

cryin' your eyes out
Gsus4
Am

You and me ought to be gettin' along
Dm

Ah, let's straighten it out
Gsus4
Am

Mmm, let's straighten it out
Dm

Let's straighten it out, baby
Am

Ah, let's straighten it out
Dm

C'mon, let's straighten it out

Just say the words,
Am

I'll straighten it out
Dm

Instead of laying there,

cryin' your eyes out
Gsus4
Am

You and me ought to be gettin' along
Dm
Am
Dm

Oh, let's straighten it out
Am

Oh, baby, let's straighten it out
Dm

Hey, honey, let's straighten it out
Am
Dm

Ahh, let's straighten it out
Am

Let's straighten it out
Dm

Let's straighten it out
Am
Dm

Dm

Let's straighten it out

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
