The tuning from this song is very weird. Ace seemed to tune strange for this record or it was
sped up in the studio. You MUST tune your D string to B and use fifth string method to tune the
rest of the guitar, like so:
1) Tune your D string to B
2) Tune the rest of the guitar as follows:
a) Tune the G string to the 4th fret of the D string
a) Tune the B string to the 5th fret of the G string
a) Tune the high E string to the 5th fret of the B string
a) Tune the A string at the 5th fret to the Open D string
a) Tune the low E string at the 5th fret to the open A string
This song has some real interesting un-Ace licks. It must have to do with the feel of this song,
which is much more disco than previous efforts.

TALK TO ME
[Rhythm Fig. 1](2x)
[Rhythm Fig. 1](3x)
When I see you, girl you turn my head, you make me dizzy
I get a good vibration
When I look into your big blue eyes, I start to quiver and shake
I get a strange sensation
When you walk by me you strut around, you make me crazy, I get no relaxation
[Rhythm Fig. 2 w/end.1]
Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation, talk to me
[Rhythm Fig. 1](3x)
People tell me that you run around and that you're no good
You got a bad reputation
I don't care what all the people say, you know they talk too much
It's a fascination
All I wanna do is talk to you and maybe go out, and form some kind of relation
[Rhythm Fig. 2 w/end.2]
So talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me - why don't you
Talk to me - c'mon and talk to me
[Solo] w/[Rhythm Fig. 3 w/end.1](2x) then [Rhythm Fig. 3 w/end.2]
I just wanna talk to you
[Rhythm Fig. 1](2x)xGirl I wish you knew the way I felt, you think I'm silly, that it's infatuation
So we better get together soon, because I need you girl
I can't stand the frustration, so
[Rhythm Fig. 2a] w/[Riff. 1] at end
Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, all I want is a little conversation
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me, talk to me - why don't you
Talk to me - c'mon and talk to me
[Rhythm Fig. 4] (Until fade)
Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me - I just wanna talk to you
(repeats out)
