This isn't like the usual New York songs.
A lot of the songs you hear nowadays

Let's go to New York on

C
Ramblin' out in the wild west
D
Leavin' the towns that I love the best
G

I thought I seen some ups and downs
D
G
Till I rambled into New York town
C
Buildings goin' down to the

People goin' up to the sky
D
Well, I got on the subway,
C
took a seat
D
and got off on 42nd Street.

I met this fella named

Dolores there.
He started rubbin' his
hands through my hair.

and a couple of dancing studios

I blowed inside out an
d upside down
The man there said
he's crazy about the sound
G
He's raving about it
C
He's telling all his friends about it
D
G
A dollar a day's worth
After weeks and weeks of

hanging around
I finally got a job in New York town
And a bigger place, bigger money too
I even joined the union and paid my dues

Six months in advance

Now, some very great man, he once said,
some people rob you with a
fountain pen.
C
In New York, it didn't take too long
D
G
to find out just what he was talking about.
C
A lot of people don't have
D
too much food on their tables.
But they got a lot of forks,
a lot of knives.
And they got to cut something,
G
C
D
G
watch out
So one morning when the
D
sun was warm
I rambled out of New York town
G

Pulled my cap down over my eyes
G
Headed out for the western skies
C
So long, New York

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

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.”
