A
D

Well, on that long ago matinee,
B

so many years ago,
D

the audience was very cordial,
Bb
D

encouraged me to continue on

in a musical career.
A
D

So I plodded along through the late 20s,
A
D

the 30s, an d the 40s,
G

sort of a rake's progress,
Ab

picking up a little work here and there,

D

you know, with the vaudeville
B

radio pictures
F#
D
A

and old market openings

or bus stops,
D

anything, any place I could get

until finally in the mid -50s or late 50s

I had reached what I rather
A

euphemistically like
D
F#

to call the zenith of my career.
D

But I plodded along until one day
B

I was coming in from the Houston airport
D

in a taxi cab into the city

and the driver of the cab

was a an ample chap

and he kept looking around
F#

over his shoulder at me kind
D

of sizing me up

finally he said say mister said

anybody ever tell you you look

like Bing Crosby
G
E
F#

I said oh no no no there's no
D

chance of that I

I'm a much better look
D

ing man than Bing Crosby

so he didn't say any more
D
B

for oh a minute or two

and finally says well let me tell

said something, mister,
D

you wouldn't mind looking
D

like Bing Crosby

if you had his money.

But then, really the shock
D
B

that really put me back in the action again,
D

seriously, I was coming out of NBC

about a year ago out of the stage door,
F#

the artist entrance there.
D

There's generally a little group

of people around.

And one fella come up

and started looking at me
B

very close.

He looked me all over and he said, and say,


didn't you used to be Bing Crosby?

You know, that's a little strong.

So I decided to give up

the shooting

and the fishing and the travel and the golf

and how lucky I was to be

able to get an engagement here

in what is really the Mecca of all

strolling players,

the Palladium.

Here I am and how happy I am,

I can't even tell you.

I really guess that's enough time

spent poking about

among the embers

of the dear dead past.

We'd better get to work

and sing some songs.

And I have a new song here,

and it's a song,

the lyrics of which seem to me

to be particularly appropriate.

Peter?

  • 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.
