Violet chords by

N/A
Verse 1
D

This guy is a funny shade of violet

That's about as dark as it gets here

A summer night in the city

The lights are looking so
A

pretty down there

I'm in the middle of my life here
G

You'll have to call me back another year
A
G

We can get together for lunch,
D

have some coffee or a little brunch.

Baby, yeah.

Baby, yeah.

Baby, yeah.

Hey little boy on the avenue,

do you know that I'm looking at you?

You are looking hot and sweaty

and I bet you're in your mid
A

-t wenties like me.
G

We can get together for lunch,

have some coffee or a little brunch
A
G

We're in the middle of our lives here,


and they'll have to call us
D

back another year

Baby, yeah

Boy on the Avenue

My boss, called me up today

He wants me to work 40 hours

And I don't wanna play his little game

I just want to play with the
A

bugs and the flowers
G

Stare at the wall for hours
A

Hey, light the man up

Oh, you want to fire me?
G

Oh, that's okay

I don't want to work today
D

or ever again

No I don't want to work today

No, no, no

Maybe I'll take my guitar

down to the subway

I'll play a little ditty or two
A

for the tired commuters
G

Cause they're stuck in their lives

They're in those stuffy grey boxes
A
G

In their high -heeled shoes

And in their little J .Crew boxes
A

And maybe if I sing true
G

They'll remember what
D

it's like to be free again

Don't you wanna be free again?
A

Cos the sky is a funny shade of violet
G
A

It's about as dark as it gets here
G

A summer night in the city
D

The lights are looking so pretty

Down there

Yeah, oh, oh

Little boy on the avenue

Won't you sit on my rooftop

with me tonight

Looking over the pretty city lights

And if you just hold me tight

Everything will be alright

Underneath this violet, violet, violet sky

  • 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.
