Verse 1
D

I remember it all very well lookin' back
C

it was the summer I turned eighteen
G
Gm

We lived in a oneroom rundown shack
Bb

on the outskirts of New Orleans
D

We didn't have money for food or rent to
C

say the least we were hard pressed
G

Then mama spent every last penny we had
Gm
Bb

to buy me a satin dancin' dress
D

Mama washed and combed and curled my
G

hair and she painted my eyes and lips
D

Then I stepped into my

satin dancin' dress
G

That had a split on the side
D

clean up to my hips
G

It was red velvet trim and it fit me good and star
D

in' back from the lookin' glass

There stood a woman where a
G
D

half grown kid had stood
Bb
C

Here's your one chance Fancy
D

don't let me down
F
G

Here's your one chance Fancy
D

don't let me down

Mama dabbed a little bit of perfume on
C

my neck and she kissed my cheek
G
Gm

Then I saw the tears wellin' up in her troubled
Bb

eyes when she started to speak
D

She looked at a pitful shack and then she
C

looked at me and took a ragged breath
G

Your pa's run off and I'm real sick and
Bb

the baby's gonna starve to death
D

She handed me a heart shaped locket
C

that said to thine owenself be true
G

And I shivered as I watched a rouch crawl
Bb

across the toe of my high heeled shoe
D

It sounded like somebody else that was
F#
Bm

talkin' askin' mama what do I do
G

Just be nice to the gentlemen Fancy and
A
D
Bb
C
D

they'll be nice to you
F

D

Here's your one chance...
F
G

Lord forgive me for what I do but if
Bb
C

you want out well it's up to you
Bb

Now don't let me down you
A
D

better start movin' uptown

Well that was the last time I saw my ma
C

the night I left that rickety shack
G
Gm

The welfare people came and took the baby
Bb

mama died and I ain't been back
D

But the wheels of fate had started to turn
C

and for me there was no way out
G

And it wasn't very long till I knew exactly
Bb

what my mama'd been talkin' about
D

I knew what I had to do but I made
C

myself this solemn vow
G

That I was gonna be a lady someday
F#
Bb

though I did n't know when or how
D

I couldn't see spendin' the rest of my
F#
Bm

life with my head hung down in shame
G

I might have been born just plain white
A
D

trash but Fancy was my name
Bb
C
D

Here's your one chance...
F
G
D

It wasn't long after a benevolent
C

man took me off the street
G

And one week later I was pourin' his
Bb

tea in a five room motel suite
D

I charmed a king a congressman
G
C

and an occasional aristocrat
G

Then I got me a Georgia mansion in
Bb

an elegant New York townhouse flat
G
D

And I ain't done bad

  • 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.
