    • Verse 1
    I 
    won't 
    say anything 
    more than that 
    this is 

    one that falls in 
    the true story 
    cat
    egory. 

    It's called 
    A Cautionary 
    Tale. 

    ["A 
    Well, 

    he walked 
    into 
    her life 

    without 
    a warning. 

    He 
    could say 
    he 
    threw himself 

    into 
    her car. 

    Sometimes 
    takes 
    a 
    desperate measure 

    to 
    be rescued. 

    Sometimes 
    even 
    desperate 
    measures 

    go 
    too 
    far 

    She 
    took 
    him 
    home, 

    she thought 
    that 
    he 
    looked hungry 

    She 
    didn't 
    stop 
    to wonder 
    if 
    he'd 
    stay 

    She 
    cleaned 
    him up, 

    made sure 
    he was
    n't injured 

    And 
    that dog's 
    been with 
    us 

    ever 
    since 
    that 
    day 

    An
    d we called 
    him Fend
    er 

    Just 
    like my 
    gui
    tar, 

    yeah, we named 
    him Fend
    er 

    He 
    threw 
    himself 
    into 
    our lives 

    when 
    he threw 
    himsel

    f into 
    our 
    car 

    Now, 
    like many 
    folks, 

    we rented 
    an 
    apartment 

    With 
    no 
    space 
    for a growing 

    dog 
    to 
    roam 

    Puppies 
    need 
    a yard 
    that they 
    can play 
    in 

    And 
    the next 
    thing that 
    we knew 

    we'd bought 
    a home 

    And 
    then Fender 
    ate 
    a pincush
    ion 

    an
    d a one 
    -pound box 
    of chocolate 

    He 
    does
    n't like 
    it when 
    we leave 

    him home 
    alone 
    too long 

    So 
    now 
    we 
    take him with 
    us 

    almost 
    everywhere 
    we 
    go 

    He's 
    waiting 
    in 
    the van 

    while 
    I'm singing 
    you 

    this song 

    And we named 
    him Fend
    er 

    Just 
    like my 
    guitar 

    Yeah, we named 
    him Fend
    er 

    He 
    threw 
    himself 
    into our 
    lives 

    When 
    he threw 
    himsel
    f in
    to 
    our 
    car 

    So now 
    we've got 
    a 

    minivan an
    d mortgage 

    And 
    I guess 
    it hasn't 
    done 

    us too 
    much 
    harm 

    But 
    you never 
    know 

    where life 
    is gonna 
    lead 
    you 

    And 
    if she hits 
    a 
    horse, 

    we'll 
    have 
    to 
    buy 
    a 
    farm

      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

      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.
