Much more information is needed:

Type of amp?
*ALL* Tubes involved?
Age of amp?
How long have you had it?
How long has this been happening?
How much do you know about tube-based electronics?
What, if anything has been done to it by you or to your knowledge?

and so forth...

NOTE: Do not screw around inside the amp unless you know what you are
doing. Lethal voltages are present.
