    my lady 
    Live near

    Broke,

    I 
    still 
    mar

    See 
    Verse 4

    Verse 5
    made 

    I

    Interlude 1




    I 
    smile like 
    Verse 7
    Herbert 
    Hoover 
    when 

    the 
    big 
    bands 
    play 

    I dream 
    of banker's 
    daughters, 

    bet
    ter 
    days 

    Verse 8
    For 
    I 
    am 
    quite 
    partial 

    Broke, 
    spent, 
    I 
    marshal 
    all my 
    strength 

    Verse 9
    when big bands 
    play 

    Knowing 
    of 
    their 
    flare 

    for filling 
    empty 

    Stomachs, 
    empty 
    hearts, 
    they're 
    not 
    so 

    Far 
    apart, 
    they're not 
    so 
    far 
    apart 

    An
    d if 
    you 
    can't 
    sleep 
    late 
    one 
    night, 

    It's 
    not 
    your coffee, 
    it's 
    the bunk 

    Verse 10
    I 
    am 
    quite 
    partial 

    Broke, 
    spent, 

    I 
    still 
    mar
    shall 
    all 
    my 
    strength 

    Verse 11

    I 
    smile like 
    Herbert 
    Hoover 

    when the 
    big bands 
    play 

    I 
    frequent 
    the dance 
    halls most 

    every 
    night into 
    the 
    day 

    I 
    know the 
    name 
    of every 
    trombone 

    player 
    that exists 

    They don't 
    know I 
    used to 
    blow before 

    the 
    Crash 
    had hit our 
    land 

    Be
    fore 
    Verse 12
    the 
    Crash 

    Verse 13

    I 
    find it 
    so much 
    warmer 
    in the 

    ballroom 
    than at home 

    A 
    common 
    bond unites 
    us so we're 

    really 
    not alone 

    Sure we've 
    got some 
    problems, 

    but tonight 
    we 
    won't admit 
    it 

    Take my 
    hand 
    my lady 
    friend, 

    we'll make it 
    seem like 
    we were 
    there 
    tonight

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
