Play For Me One Polka chords by
Hank Thompson
Hank Thompson

N/A
Verse 1
C
G

C

His name was Ole Swanson,
G

he came down from Wisconsin
C

He settled on the banks of the Rio Grande

And there he met Chiquita,
G

a smiling senorita
C

Decided he would win her heart in hand
F

But he never got the chance
C

to ever hold her tight
D

Cause she went to the dance
G

almost every night
C

And they never played a polka
G

All he could do was polka
C

And so it almost broke his heart in two

And while the band was playing
G

She was whirlin', twirlin', swayin'
C

For Swanson he would sit alone, sit blue
F

Then he couldn't stand no more
C

So he took Chiquita's hand
D

And yelled out from the floor
G

to the leader of the band
C

He said now play for me one polka,
G

one polka play for me

Play for me one polka,
C

I'll be happy as can be

Cause I can't do the square dance
G

or do the one -step -two

So play for me one polka mister,
C
G
C
G

that's all I can do

C

Now he's a happy padre
G

and she's a happy madre
C

With their muchachos, Donados and Tres

And at his brunch of grandy,
G

every day is fine and dandy
C

They do the polka all around the place
F

And from miles around

they tell
C

how he won Chiquita's hand
D

And how he did gill
G

to the leader of the band
C

He said, now play for me one polka,
G

one polka, play for me

Play for me one polka,
C

I'll be happy as can be

But I can't do those waltzes
G

or do the two -step too

So play for me one polka, mister,
C

that's all I can do you

  • 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.
