    • Verse 1
    Well 
    I'm 

    known 
    near and 
    far 

    As the 
    cousin 
    to the 
    czar 

    I'm the 
    Duke, 
    Duke 
    of Dubuque 

    It's 
    well 
    understood 

    That my 
    credit 
    is no 
    good 

    (no good, no 
    good) 

    I'm the 
    Duke 
    of Dubuque 

    And 
    if you 
    don't believe 
    me 

    and 
    tell me 
    it ain't 
    true 

    I've 
    only 
    got one 
    answer 

    That 
    answer's' "botsch" to you! 

    For 
    now, 
    au revoir, 

    I must 
    write the 
    dear old 
    czar 

    I'm the 
    Duke 
    of Dubuque 

    I'm descended 
    from the 
    Verse 2

    Romanovs in Russia 

    In the 
    books my 
    father 

    was the 
    czar 
    of Prussia 

    But he 
    sailed 
    away one 
    day 

    To the 
    state of 
    Iowa 

    That's 
    how you'll 
    find 
    me in 

    the USA 

    I'm 
    the crackers, 
    I'm 
    the cheese 

    Yeah call 
    them Oak 
    hounds, 

    if you please 

    'Cause 
    I'm 
    the Duke 

    Yes, 
    I'm 
    the Duke 
    of 
    Dubuque 

    Yeah 
    I'm wrackin' 
    Wrack
    in' 
    Verse 3

    my brains 
    baby 

    So give me, 

    give me 
    some 
    of 
    that gravy 

    'Cause 
    I'm the Duke 

    I said 
    I'm 
    the Duke 
    of 
    Dubuque 

    And 
    if you don't 
    Verse 4
    believe 
    me 

    and tell 
    me 
    it ain't true 

    I've 
    only got 
    one answer

    That answer
    's nuts 
    to you! 

    For 
    Verse 5
    now, 
    fun 
    to do, 

    can 
    you spare 
    a buck 
    or two? 

    I'm 
    the Duke, 

    Duke 
    of Dubuque 

    Verse 6
    He's the 
    Duke, 

    Duke 
    of 
    Dubuque 


    He's the Duke, 
    Duke 
    of Dubuque 

    (He is 
    the 
    Duke 
    of 
    Dubuque) 

    Yes, I'm 
    the Duke, 

    the Duke 
    of 
    Dubuque 

    Doo dat 
    doo dat 
    doo dat 
    Dubuque

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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

      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.
