    • Verse 1
    Okay, 
    let's go for 
    a record. 

    There's 
    a guy in Chemokin 

    who 
    looks pretty 
    good over 
    there. 

    Ladido 
    and 
    Toledo. 
    Hold 
    it tall. 

    We're 
    waiting. 


    There's 
    a 
    fella 
    waitin' 

    in 
    Poughkeepsie 

    And 
    he's 
    just 
    as 
    sweet 
    as 
    sweet 
    can 
    be 

    He 
    hasn't 
    even 
    been 
    tipsy 

    Since 
    I 
    left 
    him 
    and 
    took 

    to 
    the 
    sea 

    There's 
    an
    other 
    waitin' 
    in 
    Pomona 

    With 
    the 
    cutest 
    dim
    ple 
    in 
    his 
    chin 

    An
    d 
    there's 
    a 
    guy 
    in 
    Daytona 

    Who 
    just 
    waits 
    for 
    my 
    ship 

    to 
    come 
    in

    I 
    miss 
    them 
    on 
    a 
    bright 

    I 
    write 
    them 
    every 
    night 

    But 
    if 
    you 
    held 
    my 
    hand 

    I 
    sup
    pose 
    they 
    would 
    all 
    un
    derstand 

    Oh, 
    you 
    mustn't 
    think 
    I'm 
    just 
    a 
    gypsy 

    But 
    I 
    really 
    ought 
    to 
    set 
    you 
    right 

    There's 
    a 
    fella 
    waitin' 
    in 
    Biloxi 

    But 
    I'm 
    strictly 
    on 
    my 
    own 
    tonight 

    There's 
    a 
    wave 

    who's 
    wait
    in' 
    in Biloxi 

    Says 
    she's 
    gonna 
    marry 
    me 
    or bust 

    We're 
    bein' 
    mar
    ried 
    by 
    proxy 

    When 
    I 
    find 
    me 
    a 
    wo

    man 
    I 
    can 
    trust 

    There's 
    a 
    spar 
    who's 

    waitin' 
    in Waukegan 

    Who 
    is 
    really 
    different 
    from 
    the 
    rest 

    I 
    think 
    her 
    last 
    name 
    is 
    Regan 

    That's 
    the 
    name 
    that's 

    tattooed 
    on my 
    chest 

    A 
    -whackin', 
    hackin' 
    sack 

    A 
    waff 
    from 
    Pon
    tiac 

    I 
    got 
    them 
    here 
    and 
    there, 

    what 
    the 
    heck 
    chick
    s is 

    chicks 
    anywhere, 

    some 
    of 
    them 
    are 
    kinda 
    Bobby 
    Sox 
    -y, 

    but 
    it 
    may 
    be 
    quite 
    a 
    lengthy 
    fight, 

    there's 
    a wave 
    who's 

    waitin' 
    in 
    Bilox
    i, 

    but 
    I'm 
    strictly 
    on 
    my 
    own 
    tonight, 

    there's 
    a sweetheart 

    in 
    Poughkeepsie, 

    just 
    a 
    sweeter 
    sweet 
    can 
    be. 

    You see, 
    he 
    hasn't 

    even 
    been 
    tipsy 

    since 
    I 
    left 
    him 
    and 
    took 

    to 
    the 
    sea. 

    Oh, 
    you 
    mustn't 
    think 
    we're 
    gypsies, 

    but 
    we 
    really 
    ought 
    to 
    set 
    you 
    right. 

    Well, 
    tell 
    me tonight 

    there's 
    a 
    fella 
    and 
    a 
    gal 

    waiting 
    in 
    for 
    gypsy, 

    but 
    I'm 
    strictly 
    on 
    my 
    own. 

    Yes, 
    I'm 
    strictly 
    on 
    my 
    own. 

    Oh,

    strictly 
    on 
    our 
    own 
    to

      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

      "

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.

      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.
