Beat It

Michael Jackson

(Tune down 1/2 step)
    Ab F Ab Eb2
        Em lick  D lick (x2)
            Em                                             D2
              They told him don't you ever come around here
            Em                                                             D2
              Don't wanna see your face, you better disappear
                     C2                                           D2
              The fire's in their eyes and their words are really clear
                   Em              D2
              So beat it, just beat it

              You better run, you better do what you can
              Don't wanna see no blood, don't be a macho man
              You wanna be tough, better do what you can
              So beat it, but you wanna be bad

                                       Em lick  D lick
                               Just beat it,   beat it
                               No one wants to be defeated
                               Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
                               It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
                               Just beat it, just beat it
                               Just beat it, just beat it - ooh!

              They're out to get you, better leave while you can
              Don't wanna be a boy, you wanna be a man
              You wanna stay alive, better do what you can
              So beat it, just beat it

              You have to show them that you're really not scared
              You're playin' with your life, this ain't no truth or dare
              They'll kick you then they beat you, then they'll tell you it's fair
              So beat it, but you wanna be bad

                               Just beat it, beat it
                               No one wants to be defeated
                               Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
                               It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

                               Just beat it, beat it
                               No one wants to be defeated
