    • Verse 1


    I 
    haven't 
    ambitions 

    For 
    lofty 
    po
    sitions 

    That 
    wind 
    up 
    with 

    The 
    wealth of 
    the 
    land 

    I'll 
    give you 
    the 
    Verse 2
    throne 

    That a 
    king 
    sat on 

    For 
    just a 
    small 
    baton 

    Providing 
    you in
    cluded 
    a band 

    If 
    I could 
    Verse 3
    be the 
    wealthy owner 

    Of a large 
    industry 

    I would 
    say, 
    "Not for 
    me" 

    I'd 
    rather 
    lead a 
    band 

    If 
    I could 
    be a politi
    cian 
    With 
    Verse 4

    a chance 
    to dictate 

    I would 
    say, 
    "Let it 
    wait" 

    I'd 
    rather 
    lead a band 

    Verse 5
    My every 
    care 
    ceases 

    I'm rich 
    as old 
    Croesus 

    When I've 
    got ten 
    pieces 

    In hand 

    If 
    I could 
    Verse 6
    have 
    a mil
    lionairess 

    With a whole 
    flock 
    of 
    banks 

    I would 
    just 
    whisper, 
    "Thanks" 

    I'd 
    rather lead 
    a 
    band 

    Oh, 
    a 
    Verse 7
    saxophone, 
    a 
    slide trombone 

    A 
    bass 
    fiddle 
    and a 
    drum 

    A 
    guy at 
    the piano 

    Who 
    makes it 
    hum 

    Verse 8
    A violin, 
    a clarinet 

    A 
    hot 
    trumpet 
    and gui
    tar 

    And 
    me with 
    the baton 

    And 
    there you 
    are 






    Al
    right boys, 

    rehearsal 
    tomorrow at ten

      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.
