Verse 1
D
C
The night club was burning
D
G
From the torch singer's song
C
G
D
And the sweat was floodin' her eyes
G
The catwalk squeaked
C
G
'Neath the bartender's feet
D
And the smoke was too heavy
to rise
G
Verse 2
[Chorus:]
C
G
She sang of the love that I left her
C
And of the woman that
G
D
she'll never be
G
Made me feel like the buck
C
and a quarter
D
G
C
That I paid 'em to listen and see
D
G
C
D
G
I paid 'em to listen and see
C
I was born down in Kansas
D
G
'Neath the October sky
C
G
D
Work the day shift from seven to three
G
C
And the only relief that I receive
G
D
G
Is nearer my God to Thee
C
G
She constantly throws me off timing
C
Leaves me standing both
G
D
naked and bare
G
D
C
Makes me feel like the Sunday funnies
D
After everything's gone off
G
C
D
the air
G
Everything's gone off the air
C
D
G
C
I picked through the ashes
D
G
Of the torch singer's song
C

And I ordered my money a round
G
For whiskey and pain
C
G
Both taste the same
D
During the time they go down
Verse 3

[Chorus:]

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 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
