    • Verse 1
    On a Paris 
    boulevarde, 

    I picked up 
    a postal card 

    Someone had 
    forgotten 
    to 
    mail; 

    Seems 
    as though some 
    tourist 
    had 

    Meant for 
    it 
    to reach 
    her dad, 

    For it told 
    a 
    typical 
    tale! 

    Naturally 
    I 
    read 
    what she wrote, 

    This is what 
    she said, 
    and I 
    quote; 

    I 
    came 
    to Par
    is 
    to 
    buy 
    Verse 2
    me a 
    gown, 

    To 
    Paris, 
    to 
    Paris, 
    and 
    boy 
    what 
    a town! 

    The 
    lights 
    were spark
    ling, 

    the 
    mu
    sic 
    was 
    gay, 

    I 
    bought 
    me my 
    gown 

    and decided 
    to stay! 

    Now 
    poppa don't 
    preach 
    to 
    Verse 3
    me, 
    preach to me, 

    pop
    pa don't 
    preach 
    to me, 

    Let my 
    heart 
    break 
    while it's 
    young! 

    Now 
    pop
    pa don't 
    preach 
    to 
    me, preach 
    to me, 

    pop
    pa don't 
    preach 
    to me, 

    Let me 
    fling 
    till my 
    fling 
    is 
    flung! 

    I danced 
    in 
    Paris 
    Verse 4
    last night 
    with 
    Pierre, 

    That "x" 
    marks 
    my room, 

    but I'm never 
    up 
    there! 

    I strolled 
    through Paris 
    today 
    with 
    my niece, 

    The 
    "Rue 
    De La Paix" 
    means 

    "The Street 
    Of The 
    Peace". 

    Verse 5
    I'm 
    here 
    in 
    Paris since 
    early 
    May, 

    My gown 
    got 
    all worn 
    out 

    but I'm 
    still 
    okay! 

    I'm 
    made 
    for 
    Paris, 
    I'm finding 
    it out, 

    I still 
    have 
    no pass 
    but 

    my future's 
    in 
    doubt! 

    Now poppa 
    don't 
    preach 
    to me, 
    Verse 6

    preach 
    to me, poppa 
    don't 
    preach 
    to me, 

    Let my 
    heart 
    break, 
    let 
    it roam! 

    Now poppa 
    don't preach 
    to me, 

    preach 
    to me, poppa 
    don't preach 
    to 
    me, 

    I'll 
    never, 
    no I'll 
    never 

    come 
    home! 

    Verse 7
    No poppa, 
    don't 
    preach 
    to 
    me! 

    And 
    don't make 
    some non

    sense 
    speech 
    to 
    me! 

    Aw come 
    on baby, 
    don't bug 
    me! 

    I'll 
    never, 
    never 
    come 
    home!

      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.
