Verse 1
D

You know the funniest

thing happened to me,

I was talking to a man the other night,


he's the same guy
E

that gave me a fur coat five winters ago,
A
D

and a gown he gave me the following fall.
G
C
D

Then he gave me the braces, the bag,

he gave me too many pieces,
G

the hat, the shoes,
Am
C
A

that was late 58 I recall.
D

Then last night in his apartment,

oh yes, I was there,
C
E
Am

he tried to remove them all.
C
G

And I said as I ran,
D

well I didn't run exactly,

nobody was chasing me,

I just walked fast, down the hall.

You know what I said to this man?

Cm

but I'm not flat as all that.

I thought that each expensive

gift you'd arrange

was a token of your esteem.

And when I think of what you

want in exchange,
Ebdim
G

oh, that's a horrible dream.
C
Am

For some other day, brother

Take back your pearls, boy, I was furious
G

Take back the gloves and your hat
E
A

Cause I'm not like that, and that is that!

Old rascal,

the old thing wasn't no good boy,

Old worn -out mink,

I'm a chinchilla chick myself!

  • 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.
