Key: D Major BPM: ♩ = 85 Time: 4/4
|D     |D     |G     |G     |

|D                                             |D                                  |
 You are somebody that I don't know, but you're takin' shots at me like it's Patrón
                  |G            |G   |
And I'm just like, damn, it's 7 AM
|D                                                |D                                  |
 Say it in the street, that's a knock-out, but you say it in a Tweet, that's a cop-out
                   |G            |G    |
And I'm just like, "Hey, are you okay?"

   |D                                           |
And I ain't tryna mess with your self-expression
                     |D                                                         |
But I've learned a lesson that stressin' and obsessin' 'bout somebody else is no
|G       |A                                     |
 fun, and snakes and stones never broke my bones

  |D                          |D                      |G                     |G   |
So oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, you need to calm down, you're being too loud
                 |D                          |D    |
And I'm just like oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
                |G                      |G                                    |
You need to just stop, like can you just not step on my gown? You need to calm

|D     |D     |
 down

|D                                              |D                                  |
 You are somebody that we don't know, but you're comin' at my friends like a missile
           |G                    |G     |
Why are you mad when you could be GLAAD?
|D                                        |D                                   |
 Sunshine on the street at the parade, but you would rather be in the dark ages
           |G                     |G    |
Makin' that sign must've taken all night

|D                                                                    |
 You just need to take several seats and then try to restore the peace
      |D                                                 |
And control your urges to scream about all the people you
|G           |A                                |
 hate, ’cause shade never made anybody less gay

  |D                          |D                      |G                     |G   |
So oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, you need to calm down, you're being too loud
                 |D                          |D    |
And I'm just like oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
                |G                      |G                                     |
You need to just stop, like can you just not step on his gown? You need to calm

|D                                              |D                                           |
 down, and we see you over there on the internet,  comparing all the girls who are killing it
|G                                    |G                                           |
   But we figured you out, we all know now we all got crowns, you need to calm down

|D                          |D                      |G                     |G   |
 Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, you need to calm down, you’re being too loud
                 |D                          |D    |
And I'm just like oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
                |G                      |G                                      |
You need to just stop, like can you just not step on our gowns? You need to calm

|D     |
