    Verse 1

    Lefty 
    Clark 
    was 
    young 
    man, 

    he was 
    handsome 
    Sunday 
    ath
    lete 

    Wrote 
    stories 
    for 
    the paper 
    down 

    on main 
    street 

    And chances 
    he 
    had 
    chances 
    to 

    es
    cape 
    the small 
    town 
    life 

    But his 
    brother 
    was 
    deaf 
    and dum

    and couldn't 
    be 
    left 
    behind 

    Verse 2
    But depression 
    was 
    going 
    strong 
    then, 

    actors 
    were 
    on 
    the road 

    One 
    hot 
    July 
    girl 
    came 
    through 

    in 
    WPA show 

    She was 
    city- 
    bred 
    and 
    beautiful 

    A lady 
    to her 
    finger
    tips 

    As 
    much 
    at home 
    in 
    her 
    velvet 
    shoes 

    As Lefty 
    was 
    in 
    his 

    Verse 3
    They 
    fell 
    in love 
    on the 
    courthouse 
    square 

    But 
    pretty 
    soon 
    her 
    show 
    moved 
    on 

    And she 
    couldn't 
    stay 

    and Lefty 
    couldn't 
    go 

    Verse 4

    So the 
    years 
    passed 
    and Lefty 
    grew 
    old 

    With 
    only 
    his brother 
    home 

    And when 
    Dummy 
    died, 
    it was 
    too late 

    To 
    find 
    any 
    place 
    else 
    and 
    so 

    Some 
    nights 
    he'd have 

    a little 
    whiskey 

    For the 
    summer 
    on 
    his mind 

    And 
    open 
    his 
    trunk 
    and hold 

    two 
    velvet 
    shoes 

    And 
    sit 
    and 
    cry 

    He'd 
    sit 
    and 
    cry 


    Verse 5
    Most 
    of the 
    time 
    he was 
    Lefty 

    who 
    always 
    had 
    a joke 

    Was 
    good 
    to 
    his friends 
    and neighbors 

    And 
    never 
    whispered 
    of being 
    alone 

    He 
    hit 
    sixty- 
    eight 
    all 
    by 
    himself 

    with to
    bacco 
    on 
    his 
    chin 

    TV 
    dinner 
    in the 
    oven 

    And 
    a few friends 
    dropping 
    in

    Verse 6
    Still 
    once 
    each 
    billion 
    chances 

    There's 
    justice 
    in 
    the world 

    And late 
    that 
    year 
    he finally 
    heard 

    from the 
    long- 
    lost 
    velvet 
    girl 

    She 
    was 
    still 
    so beautiful, 
    tall, 

    silver- 
    haired 
    and proud 

    They 
    took walks 
    like 
    they used 
    to take 

    Before 
    the last 
    summer 
    run 
    out 

    Verse 7
    She 
    said, 
    "Better 
    late 
    than 
    never, 

    let me 
    sit, 
    you 
    took 
    a while" 

    She 
    spoke 
    her life 
    with sad
    ness, 

    and he 
    spoke 
    with 
    smile 

    He'd 
    sit 
    and 
    smile 

    He'd 
    sit 
    and 
    smile 

    He'd 
    sit 
    and 
    smile

    • 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.
