  • Intro 1
    I'm 
    500 
    miles 
    away 
    from 
    home 


    Verse 1
    Teardrops 
    fell 
    on 
    momma's 
    note 

    When 
    read 
    the 
    things 
    she 
    wrote 

    She 
    said 
    "We 
    miss 
    you, 
    son, 
    we 
    love 
    you, 

    come 
    on 
    home." 

    Well, 
    didn't 
    have 
    to 
    pack 

    had 
    it 
    all 
    right 
    on 
    my 
    back 

    Now 
    I'm 
    500 
    miles 
    away 
    from 
    home 

    Chorus 1
    Away 
    from 
    home, 
    away 
    from 
    home 

    Cold 
    and 
    tired 
    and 
    all 
    a
    lone 

    Yes, 
    I'm 
    500 
    miles 
    away 
    from 
    home 

    Interlude 1
    (Doo 
    doo 
    doo 
    doo 
    doo 
    doo 
    doo 
    doo...) 

    know 
    this 
    is 
    the 
    same 
    road 

    took 
    the 
    day 
    left 
    home 

    But 
    it 
    sure 
    looks 
    different 
    now 

    Well, 
    guess 
    look 
    different, 
    too, 

    'cause 
    time 
    changes 
    everything. 

    wonder 
    what 
    they'll 
    say, 

    when 
    they 
    see 
    their 
    boy 
    looking 
    this 
    way 

    (...doo 
    doo 
    doo 
    doo 
    doo) 

    Oh, 
    wonder 
    what 
    they'll 
    say 

    when 
    get 
    home 

    Verse 2
    Can't 
    re
    member 
    when 
    ate 

    It's 
    just 
    thumb 
    and 
    walk 
    and 
    wait 

    And 
    I'm 
    still 
    500 
    miles 
    away 
    from 
    home 


    Well, 
    if 
    my 
    luck 
    had 
    been 
    just 
    right 

    I'd 
    be 
    with 
    them 
    all 
    to
    night 

    But 
    I'm 
    still 
    500 
    miles 
    away 
    from 
    home 

    Chorus 2
    Away 
    from 
    home, 
    away 
    from 
    home 

    Cold 
    and 
    tired 
    and 
    all 
    a
    lone 

    Yes, 
    I'm 
    still 
    500 
    miles 
    away 
    from 
    home 

    Oh, 
    I'm 
    still 
    500 
    miles 
    away 
    from 
    home

    • 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.
