Intro 1


Verse 1
Sandy, 

the 
fireworks 
are 
hailin' 

over 
Little 
Eden 
tonight 

Forcin' 
light 

into 
all 
those 
stony 
faces 

left 
stranded 
on 
this 
warm 
Ju
ly 

Down 
in 
town 
the 
Circuit's 
full 
of 

switchblade 
lovers 

so 
fast, 
so 
shiny, 
so 
sharp 

As 
the 
wizards 
play 
down 

on 
Pinball 
Way 

on 
the 
boardwalk 
way 
past 
dark 

And 
the 
boys 
from 
the 
casino 
dance 

With 
their 
shirts 
open 

like 
Latin 
lovers 
on 
the 
shore 

Chasin' 
all 
them 
silly 
New 
York 
virgins 

by 
the 
score 

Chorus 1
And 
Sand
y, 

the 
au
rora 
is 
risin' 
be
hind 
us 


This 
pier 
lights 

our 
carni
val 
life 
for
ever 

Oh 
love 
me 
tonight 

for 
may 
nev- 
er 

see 
you 
a
gain 

Hey 
Sandy 
girl 

My, 
my 
baby 


Verse 2
Now 
the 
greasers, 
ah 
they 
tramp 
the 
streets 

Or 
get 
busted 

for 
sleeping 
on 
the 
beach 
all 
night 

Them 
boys 
in 
their 
high 
heels 

ah 
Sandy 
their 
skins 
are 
so 
white 

And 
me 
just 
got 
tired 

of 
hangin' 
in 
them 
dusty 
arcades 

Bangin' 
them 
pleasure 
machines 

Chasin' 
the 
factory 
girls 

underneath 
the 
boardwalk 

Where 
they 
all 
promise 
to 
unsnap 
their 
jeans 

And 
you 
know 
that 
tilt-a-whirl 
down 

on 
the 
south 
beach 
drag 

got 
on 
it 
last 
night 
and 
my 
shirt 
got 
caught 

And 
they 
kept 
me 
spinnin' 

didn't 
think 
I'd 
ever 
get 
off 

Chorus 2
And 
Sand
y, 

the 
au
rora 
is 
risin' 
be
hind 
us 


This 
pier 
lights 

our 
carni
val 
life 
on 
the 
water 

Running, 
laugh
in' 
'neath 
the 
boardwalk, 

ah, 
with 
the 
boss's 
daughter 

remember 
Sandy 
girl, 

na, 
na, 
na, 
na, 
na 
baby 


Verse 3
Sandy, 

that 
waitress 
was 
seeing 

lost 
her 
de
sire 
for 
me 

spoke 
with 
her 
last 
night 

She 
said 
she 
won't 
set 
herself 
on 
fire 

for 
me 
anymore 

She 
worked 
that 
joint 
under 
the 
boardwalk 

She 
was 
al
ways 
the 
girl 

you 
saw 
boppin' 
down 
the 
beach 

with 
the 
radio 

The 
kids 
say 
last 
night 

she 
was 
dressed 
like 
star 

In 
one 
of 
them 
cheap 
little 
seaside 
bars 

And 
saw 
her 
parked 
with 
lover 
boy 

out 
on 
the 
Koko
mo 

Did 
you 
hear 

the 
cops 
finally 
busted 
Madame 
Marie 

For 
tellin' 
fortunes 
better 
than 
they 
do 

For 
me 
this 
boardwalk 
life 
is 
through, 
babe 

You 
ought 
to 
quit 
this 
scene 
too 


Chorus 3
And 
Sand
y, 

the 
au
rora 
is 
risin' 
be
hind 
us 


This 
pier 
lights 

our 
carni
val 
life 
for
ever 

Oh 
love 
me 
tonight 

and 
promise 
I'll 
love 
you 
for
ever 

Oh, 
mean 
it, 
Sandy, 
girl 

My, 
my, 
my, 
my, 
my 
baby 

Yeah, 
promise, 
Sandy, 
girl 

Sha, 
la, 
la, 
la,

baby

    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 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.
