Verse 1
G
Bb

I was sitting there in a
F

comfortable chair
G

And that was all that I needed
Bb

Then my friend offered me
F

a drink for us to share
G

And that was all that I needed
Bb

Well, then I felt at ease
Dm

But then I´m not too hard to please
G

I guess you couldn't call me greedy
Bb

Then I was shocked to look up
F

And see Rita Hayworth there in
G

a place so seedy
Bb
F

She walked into the bar with her long,

red, curly hair
Dm
G

And that was all that I needed
Bb
Dm

And I said to my friend, "good god,
G

we´re lucky men just to even see her"

And I could not resist,
F

I just had to get close to her
G

And that was all that I needed
Bb

I walked and loomed around
F

her table for a while
G

And that was all that I needed
Bb

Then I said, "I hate to bug you,
Dm

ma´am, but can I have your autograph?"
G

And that was all that I needed
Bb

She pressed her lips against
F

a white piece of paper
G

And that was all that I needed
Bb

Then I saw what she wrote,
F

my heart is in my mouth
G

And that was all that I needed
Bb

Then she handed it to me,
Dm

and I think that she could see
G

That that was all that I needed
Bb
F

I started to walk away but then I remembered
G

´hey, I forgot to get a picture´
Bb

So I asked her one more time,
F

"could I have another favor?"
G

That was all that I needed
Bb

She was kind and posed with me
Dm
G

Then I knew my friend would see my celebrity meet

She turned and said to me,
F

"I need to go to sleep,"
G

And it seemed so mean
Bb
F

It´s almost as if she could not
G

appreciate how cool I was being
Bb

She said, "good night"
Bbm

and walked away
Bb
Dm

And I didn't know what to say
F
G

I just couldn't believe it
Bb

Well, it´s just not fair
F

I want to get a piece of hair
G

That was all that I needed
Bb

Or maybe a kiss on the cheek
F

I wouldn't wash it for a week
G

That would be all that I needed
Bb

But she didn't even care
Dm

That I was even there

What a horrible feeling

  • 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.
