    Verse 1
    Bangkok, 

    Oriental 
    setting 

    And the 
    city 
    don't 
    know 

    that 
    the city 
    is 
    getting 

    The 
    creme 
    de la 
    creme 

    of the 
    chess 
    world 
    in 
    a 

    Show 
    with 
    everything 
    but 

    Yul Brynner 

    Time 
    flies 
    - - doesn't 

    seem a 
    minute 

    Since the 
    Tirolean spa 

    had the 
    chess 
    boys 
    in 
    it 

    All 
    change 
    - - don't 

    you know that 
    when you 

    Play 
    at this 
    level 
    there's 

    no ordinary 
    venue 

    It's 
    Iceland 
    - - or 
    the Philippines 
    - - or 

    Hastings 
    - 
    - or - - or 
    this 
    place! 

    One 
    night 
    in Bangkok 
    and 
    the 
    Verse 2

    world's 
    your 
    oyster 

    The bars 
    are temples 
    but 

    the 
    pearls 
    ain't 
    free 

    You'll 
    find 
    a god 
    in 
    every 

    golden 
    cloister 

    And 
    if 
    you're lucky 
    then 

    the 
    god's 
    a 
    she 

    I 
    can 
    feel 
    an 
    angel 
    sliding 
    up 
    to 
    me 

    Verse 3
    One 
    town's 
    very 
    like 
    another 

    When 
    your head's 
    down 
    over 
    your 
    pieces, 

    brother 

    Verse 4
    It's 
    a drag, 
    it's 
    a bore, 

    it's 
    really 
    such 
    a pity 

    To be 
    looking 
    at 
    the board, 

    not 
    looking 
    at the 
    city 

    Verse 5
    Whaddya mean? 
    Ya seen 
    one 
    crowded, 

    polluted, 
    stinking 
    town 
    - - 

    Tea, girls, 
    warm 
    and 
    sweet 

    Some 
    are set 
    up 
    in 
    the Somerset 

    Maugham 
    suite 

    Verse 6
    Get 
    Thai'd! You're 
    talking 
    to 
    a tourist 
    Whose 

    every 
    move's 
    among 
    the purest 

    I 
    get 
    my kicks 
    above 
    the 
    waistline, 

    sunshine 

    Verse 7

    One 
    night 
    in Bangkok 
    makes 

    a 
    hard 
    man 
    humble 

    Not 
    much 
    between 
    despair 
    and 
    ec
    stasy 

    One 
    night 
    in Bangkok 
    and 

    the 
    tough 
    guys 
    tumble 

    Can't 
    be 
    too careful 
    with 
    your 
    company 

    I 
    can 
    feel 
    the devil 
    walking 
    next 
    to 
    me 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 8
    Siam's gonna 
    be 
    the witness 
    To the 

    ultimate 
    test 
    of 
    cerebral 
    fitness 

    This 
    grips 
    me more 
    than 
    would 
    a 

    Muddy 
    old 
    river 
    or 
    reclining 
    Buddha 

    And 
    thank 
    God 
    I'm only 
    watching 
    the 

    game 
    - - controlling 
    it 
    - - 

    I don't 
    see 
    you 
    guys 
    rating 

    The 
    kind 
    of mate 
    I'm 
    contemplating 

    I'd let 
    you watch, 
    I 
    would 
    invite 
    you 

    But the 
    queens 
    we 
    use 

    would 
    not 
    excite 
    you 

    So 
    you better 
    go 
    back to 
    your bars, 
    your 
    temples, 

    your massage 
    par
    lours 
    - - 

    One 
    night 
    in Bangkok 
    and 
    the 
    Verse 9

    world's 
    your 
    oyster 

    The bars 
    are temples 
    but 
    the 

    pearls 
    ain't 
    free 

    You'll 
    find 
    a god 
    in 
    every 
    golden 
    cloister 

    A 
    little 
    flesh, 
    a little 
    history 

    I 
    can 
    feel 
    an angel 
    sliding 
    up to 
    me 

    One 
    night 
    in Bangkok 
    makes 

    a 
    hard 
    man 
    humble 

    Not 
    much 
    between 
    despair 
    and 
    ecstasy 

    One 
    night 
    in Bangkok 
    and 
    the 

    tough 
    guys 
    tumble 

    Can't 
    be 
    too care
    ful 
    with 
    your 
    com
    pany 

    I 
    can 
    feel 
    the devil 
    walking 
    next 
    to 
    me

      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 🙂

      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.
