    Verse 1
    Down 
    in 

    the parkway 
    at 
    noon 
    every 
    day 

    No 
    matter 
    what 
    time 
    of 
    year 

    Pi
    geons 
    will 
    gather 
    from 
    all 
    over 
    town 

    Wait
    ing 
    for 
    her 
    to 
    appear 

    As 
    she 
    fed 
    the 
    birds 
    a 
    stale 
    crust 
    of 

    bread 
    I 
    sat 
    beside 
    her 
    each 
    day 

    Ask
    ing 
    her 
    what 
    she 
    re
    membered 

    Of 

    Paris 
    and 
    her 
    yester
    day 

    Bella 

    Blue, 
    dancing 
    to 
    candles 
    in 
    dresses 
    of 

    Spanish 
    lace 

    Bella 

    Blue, 
    she was 
    fam
    ous 
    with 
    all 
    the 

    young 
    men 
    for 
    her 
    lovely 
    face 

    La 
    la la… 


    Then 
    it 
    was 
    wartime, 

    she 
    lowered 
    her 
    voice 

    One 
    special 
    boy 
    on 
    her 
    mind 

    He 
    was 
    so 
    handsome 
    and 
    so 
    full 
    of life, 

    she 
    misses 
    him 
    all 
    the 
    time 

    They 
    hurriedly 
    went, 
    then 
    he 
    went 
    away, 

    never 
    to 
    come 
    back 
    again 

    War 
    left 
    a 
    scar 
    for 
    a 
    lifetime, 

    now 
    she 
    leaves 
    flowers 
    for 
    him 

    Bella 

    Blue, 
    dropping 
    her 
    tears 
    like 
    a 

    rose 
    in 
    the 
    pouring 
    rain 

    Bella 

    Blue, 
    all 
    she 
    has 
    of 
    her 
    soldier 

    today 
    is 
    her 
    married 
    name

    much 
    colder 
    than 
    most 
    I 
    hadn't

    bella

    When 
    I 
    went 
    back 
    to 
    the 
    parkway, 

    she 
    wasn't 
    there 
    and I 
    knew 

    Bella 

    Blue, 
    after 
    a 
    lifetime 
    of 

    waiting 
    she's 
    not 
    alone 

    Bella 

    Blue, 
    I 
    hope 
    she 
    and 
    her 
    soldier 

    have

      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

      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.
