Verse 1
C
When the King and Queen decided
They would have a formal dance
G
Invitations were delivered
And it happened quite by chance
F
Through an oversight of someone's
C
Whose it was I can't recall
G
Engelbert the elephant
C
Was invited to the ball
What excitement in the jungle
What a holy hullabaloo
G
What a race to find a costume
And to learn a step or two
F
You could feel the jungle shaking
C
And I bet it's shaking yet
G
While Engelbert was learning
C
How to dance the minuet
All the palace lamps were lighted
As the sun was goin' down
G
And the music of the orchestra
Was heard across the town
F
The dance was just beginning
C
When there came a mighty roar
G
Your Highness - there's
an elephant
C
And he's standing by the door
Then the guard turned out
from everywhere
They came from every place
G
To where Engelbert was standing
With a smile upon his face
F
He was dressed in latest fashion
C
On his trunk he wore a ring
G
He presented his invitation
C
With the seal of the King
So the soldiers formed an escort
And they led him to the ball
G
Where the orchestra stopped playing
And a hush went through the hall
F
For the King and Queen were speechless
C
And I'm sure they're speechless
now
G
Engelbert the elephant
C
Made a very lovely bow
Then the Queen began to smile at him
The band began to play
G
And Engelbert was dancing
In the very nicest way
F
The ladies were delighted
C
At the way he turned and spun
G
And before the night was over
C
He had danced with everyone
When they sat down to dinner
Engelbert sat on the floor
G
He nibbled most politely
Though he really wanted more
F
When the final dance was called for
C
Such a sight you've never seen
G
For it was by the royal command
C
He danced it with the Queen
And when the ball was over
And the guests began to go
G
They escorted him to the city gates
And he gave 'em quite a show
F
For the band had come
along with them
C
And the band began to play
G
And the dance he did along the road
C
Is talked about today
F
Yes they talked about the dancing
C
And you know they're talkin' yet
G
Of how Engelbert the elephant
C
Performed the minuet

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

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
