    Verse 1
    Many's

    I've

    And 
    many 
    times 
    con

    saken 

    And 
    cer
    tainly

    Oh, 
    but 
    I'm 
    all 
    right, 
    I'm 
    all 
    right 

    I'm 
    just 
    we
    ary 
    to 
    my 
    bones 

    Still, 
    you 
    don't 
    expect 
    to 
    be 

    Bright 
    and 
    bon 
    vi
    vant 

    So 
    far 
    a
    way 
    from

    so 
    far 
    a
    way 
    from 
    home 

    Verse 2
    don't 
    know 
    soul 

    who's

    Oh, 
    but

    all 
    right 

    For 
    we've 
    lived 
    so 
    well 
    so 
    long 


    Still, 
    when 
    think 
    of 
    the 
    road 

    we're 
    trav
    eling 
    on, 
    won
    der 

    what's 
    gone 
    wrong, 
    can't 
    help 
    it, 

    wonder 
    what's 
    gone 
    wrong 

    Bridge 1
    And 
    dreamed 
    was 
    dying 

    dreamed 
    that 
    my 
    soul 

    rose 
    unex
    pectedly 

    And 
    looking 
    back 
    down 
    at 
    me 

    Smiled 
    reas
    suringly 

    And 
    dreamed 
    was 
    flying 

    And 
    high 
    up 
    a
    bove 

    my 
    eyes 
    could 
    clearly 
    see 

    The 
    Statue 
    of 
    Liberty 

    Sailing 
    a
    way 
    to 
    sea 

    And 
    dreamed 
    was 
    flying 

    Verse 3
    We 
    come 
    on 
    the 
    ship 

    they 
    call 
    the 
    May
    flower 

    We 
    come 
    on 
    the 
    ship 

    that 
    sailed 
    the 
    moon 

    We 
    come 
    in 
    the 
    a
    ge's 

    most 
    uncer- 
    tain 
    hour 

    and 
    sing 
    an 
    Ameri
    can 
    tune 

    Ooh, 
    and 
    it's 
    all 
    right, 

    it's 
    all 
    right, 
    it's 
    all 
    right 

    You 
    can't 
    be 
    for- 
    ever 
    blessed 


    Still, 
    to
    morrow's 
    going 
    to 
    be 

    an
    other 
    working 
    day 

    And 
    I'm 
    trying 
    to 
    get 
    some 
    rest 

    That's 
    all 
    I'm 
    trying, 
    to 
    get 
    some

    • 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.
