    We're 
    a couple of 
    Verse 1
    swells 

    We 
    stop 
    at the best ho
    tels 

    But 
    we prefer 
    the 
    coun
    try 
    far 
    away from 

    the city 
    smell

    We're a 
    couple of 
    sports 

    The 
    pride 
    of the tennis 
    courts 

    In 
    Jun
    e, Ju
    ly and 
    August 
    we look 

    cute when 
    we're dressed 
    in 
    shorts 

    The 
    Vanderbilts 
    have 
    asked 
    us up for 
    tea 

    We 
    don't know 
    how to 
    get there, 

    no sir
    ree 

    No, 
    sirree 

    We 
    would 
    Verse 2
    drive 
    up 
    the Avenue, 

    but we 
    haven't 
    got the 
    price 

    We would 
    skate 
    up 
    the Avenue, 

    but there 
    isn't 
    any 
    ice 

    We would 
    ride 
    on 
    bicycle, 

    but we 
    haven't 
    got a 
    bike 

    So we'll 
    walk 
    up 
    the Avenue 

    Yes, we'll 
    walk 
    up 
    the Avenue 

    And to 
    walk 
    up 
    the Avenue's 
    what we 
    like 


    Verse 3

    Wall Street 
    bankers 
    are we 

    With 
    plenty 
    of currency 

    We'd 
    open 
    up the 
    safe but 
    we for

    got where 
    we put the 
    key 

    We're the 
    favorite 
    lads 

    Of 
    girls 
    in the picture 
    ads 

    We'd 
    like to 
    tell you 
    who we 
    kissed last 

    night but 
    we can't be 
    cad

    The 
    Vanderbilts 
    are 
    waiting 
    at the 
    club 

    But 
    how are 
    we 
    to 
    get there, 

    that's 
    the rub 

    That's 
    the 
    rub 

    We 
    would sail 
    Verse 4
    up 
    the Avenue, 

    but we 
    haven't 
    got 
    yacht 

    We would 
    drive 
    up 
    the Avenue, 

    but the 
    horse we 
    had was 
    shot 

    We would 
    ride 
    on 
    trolley car 
    but we 

    haven't 
    got the 
    fare 

    So we'll 
    walk 
    up 
    the Avenue 

    Yes, we'll 
    walk 
    up 
    the Avenue 

    Yes, we'll 
    walk 
    up 
    the Avenue 
    till we're 
    there 

    Interlude 1





    Verse 5
    We would 
    swim 
    up 
    the Avenue 

    but we 
    haven't 
    any 
    lake 

    So we'll 
    walk 
    up 
    the Avenue 

    Yes, we'll 
    walk 
    up 
    the 
    Avenue 

    Yes, a 
    walk 
    up 
    the Avenue's 
    what we'll 
    take

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
