  • Verse 1
    America 
    made 
    me 

    Of 
    brick 
    and 
    coal 
    and 
    rubber 

    America 
    made 
    me 

    camp 
    and 
    cold 
    little 

    kickabout 

    And look 
    at 
    me 
    now 

    Verse 2

    Aluminum 
    paved 
    me 

    was 
    primped 
    and 
    poised 

    and 
    shit 
    out 

    Antediluvian 
    lady 

    You 
    won't 
    get 
    far 
    in 
    knock
    about 

    With 
    your 
    keeling 
    aground 

    Verse 3

    America 
    made 
    me 

    America 
    saved 
    me 
    from 
    myself 

    And 
    all 
    these 
    wishers- 
    well 

    America 
    prayed 
    me 

    dare 
    you 
    to 
    lull 
    me 
    to 
    my 
    knees 

    Give 
    me 
    something 
    sweet 

    Maybe 
    something 
    that 
    will 

    get 
    me 
    back 
    to 
    sleep 

    Verse 4
    They 
    told 
    me 
    to 
    line 
    up 

    They 
    said, 
    "Keep 
    your 

    mind 
    out 
    of the 
    gutter 

    Or 
    it's 
    likely 
    you'll 
    wind 
    up 

    In 
    some 
    dark 
    hole 
    all 
    a- 
    mutter 
    about 

    All 
    the 
    ways 
    you've 
    been 

    wronged" 

    Verse 5

    So 
    America, 
    heal 
    me 

    Come 
    kick 
    my 
    door 
    off 
    the 
    hinges 

    Swap 
    me 
    out 
    for 
    real 
    me 

    One 
    that's 
    not 
    always 
    going 
    on 
    about 

    How 
    he'll 
    never 
    be
    long 

    Verse 6

    America 
    made 
    me 

    So 
    America, 
    save 
    me 
    from 
    my
    self 

    You 
    long 
    to,

    I'm 
    coming 
    to you 
    on

    and 
    knees 

    Just 
    feed 
    me 
    something 

    soft 
    and 
    sweet 

    Maybe 
    something 
    that 
    won't 

    keep 
    me 
    from 
    my 
    sleep

    give 
    me something 
    to 
    sleep

    Give 
    me 
    something 
    to 
    sleep 

    And maybe 
    something 
    that 

    won't 
    keep 
    me 
    from 
    my 
    sleep 

    Oh 
    no, 
    give 
    me 
    something 
    to 
    sleep 

    little 
    something 
    to 
    sleep 

    Maybe

    • 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.
