    Verse 1
    Looking at the radio caught up in a dream 

    'Bout the 
    days gone by when no one had a TV 

    Hopin' that the weather man 

    would say good things 

    Like no 
    rain on friday for the drive in movie 

    Little kids didn't have a care 

    There was 
    love growin' up everywhere 

    But when I 
    open my eyes 

    and the dream stops playin 

    You can still find me somewhere saying 

    Chorus 1
    shoulda been born in 
    forty-five 

    In 
    fifty-four 
    woulda 
    been 
    nine 

    White shirt, poodle skirt, 
    silk hair tie 

    Dancing 
    in 
    the 
    moonlight 

    that 
    woulda 
    been 
    nice 

    Ooh- 
    ooh- 
    ooh- 
    ooh- 
    ooh- 
    ooh- 
    ooh 

    Oh- 
    oh, 
    that 
    woulda 
    been 
    nice 

    Ooh- 
    ooh- 
    ooh- 
    ooh- 
    ooh- 
    ooh- 
    ooh 

    Ooh- 
    ooh 

    Verse 2
    Boom
    box 
    on 
    my 
    shoulder 
    wit 
    my 
    favorite 
    tape 

    I'm 
    reppin' 
    my 
    eight 
    tracks 

    and my buckle up skates 

    How do I know about that you 
    say, 
    you 
    say 

    You wear 
    bell bottom jeans get a double take 

    From all the 
    guys and the girls 

    who look your way 

    Back then people didn't always agree 

    But the 
    love goin round was revolutionary and 

    Pre-chorus 1
    Even though the world was 
    crazy 

    I'd still go if my dreams could 
    take 
    me, 

    oh 

    Chorus 2
    shoulda been born in 
    sixty-five 

    In 
    seventy-four 
    woulda 
    been 
    nine 

    Tryna' 
    get 
    home 
    after 
    playin 
    outside 

    Racin' 
    street 
    lights, 
    racin' 
    street 
    lights 

    shoulda been born in 
    sixty-five 

    woulda 
    been 
    teenager 
    round 
    seventy-nine 

    Teasing my hair so it 
    looks just right 

    On 
    saturday night, 
    yeah 

    Bridge 1
    that 
    woulda 
    been 

    (nice) 
    Growin' up I never 
    really had a care 

    There 
    was 
    love 
    all 
    the 
    time 

    and 
    ev
    ery
    where 

    And even though sometimes 

    my 
    world may get a little crazy 

    find myself bein proud when I 
    say 

    Chorus 3
    coulda 
    been 
    born 
    in 
    forty-five 

    But 
    the 
    truth 
    is 
    got 
    here

    right 

    And

    the 
    year 
    that 
    come 
    from 

    And 
    wouldn't 
    wanna 
    trade 
    it 
    for 
    a
    nother 
    time 

    love 
    this 
    life

    • 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.
