We both suffer such abuses

Girls phoning day and night

I've run out of excuses

We're not bragging,

we're complaining
E

And don't think this is
Am

treason

We know we're not
D

good looking
G

Our proboscises are

the reason

Who's got all the charm?

Durante and Hope

Who's got all the personality?

Honest, this is not just a lot of noise

We wish there was something

we could do for other boys

No wonder fellas in this town
Am

Walk around with a great big frown
G

They're jealous of

the boys with the proboscis
Dm

They beg for dates with
G

all the chicks

But we have to beat

them off with sticks
Am

No one liked the boys with the proboscis
C

Our secret is variety

Dm

That's what we found
G

My nose turns up

And my nose turns down

We get an awful problem

Every time we get too close we lock

bumpers

You'd think this life would make us smile,

D
G

beware of the boys of the preposterous.
C
G

Ah, Jim, my nose has never

been any handicap

when it comes to girls.

Why, in one night,

I once went out with five girls.

So what? In one night,

I once went out with ten girls.

Well, on my dresser,

I've got pictures

of twenty beautiful girls.

On my dresser,

I've got pictures

of forty beautiful girls.

Uh -huh.

Well, I've been proposed to by fifty girls.


But I've been proposed to

by a hundred girls.

Well? Oh, no, you don't.

This time, you go first.

So, if you've got a sweetie and

you plan to elope,
Am

  • 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.
