Turn the Beat Around by Gloria Estefan

CHORUS------------------------------------------
F#m E D
Turn the beat around (string notes: A-G#-F#-G#-E-D)
D E F#m
Love to hear percussion (string notes: A-G#-F#-G#-E-F#)
F#m E D
Turn it upside down
D E F#m
Love to hear percussion
D D D E
Love to hear it

F#m E
Blow horns you sure sound pretty
F#m E
Your violins keep movin' to the nitty gritty
F#m E
When you hear the scratch of the guitars scratchin'
F#m E
Then you'll know that rhythm carries all the action, so

 CHORUS

F#m E
Flute player play your flute 'cause (flute solos in F#m and E)
F#m E
I know that you want to get your thing off
F#m E
But you see I've made up my mind about it
F#m E
It's got to be the rhythm, no doubt about it, woah woah

F#m
'Cause when the guitar player starts playing
E
With the syncopated rhythm, with the scratch, scratch, scratch
F#m E
Makes me wanna move my body yeah, yeah, yeah
F#m
And when the drummer starts beating that beat
E
He nails that beat with the syncopated rhythm
F#m F#m F#m F#m F#m E
With the rat, tat, tat, tat, tat, tat on the drums, hey

 CHORUS x2
D D D E
Love to hear it x4, then end on F#m
