    Verse 1
    think 
    I'm 
    sophisticated 

    'cause 
    I'm 
    living 
    my 
    life 

    Like 
    good 
    homo 
    sapiens 

    But 
    all 
    around 
    me 
    everybody's 
    multiplying 

    And 
    they're 
    walking 
    round 
    like 
    flies 
    man 

    So 
    I'm 
    no 
    better 
    than 
    the 
    animals 
    sitting 

    In 
    the 
    cages 
    in 
    the 
    zoo, 
    man 

    'Cause 
    compared 
    to 
    the 
    flowers 

    and 
    the 
    birds 
    and 
    the 
    trees 

    am 
    an 
    ape
    man 

    Verse 2
    think 
    I'm 
    so 
    educated 

    and 
    I'm 
    so 
    civilized 

    'Cause 
    I'm 
    strict 
    vegetarian 

    But 
    with 
    the 
    over-population 

    and 
    inflation 
    and 
    starvation 

    And 
    the 
    crazy 
    politicians 

    don't 
    feel 
    safe 
    in 
    this 
    world 
    no 
    more 

    don't 
    want 
    to 
    die 
    in 
    nuclear 
    war 

    want 
    to 
    sail 
    away 

    to 
    distant 
    shore 
    and 
    make 
    like 
    an 
    ape
    man 

    Chorus 1
    I'm 
    an 
    apeman, 
    I'm 
    an 
    ape, 
    apeman 

    Oh, 
    I'm 
    an 
    apeman 

    I'm 
    King 
    Kong 
    man, 
    I'm 
    voodoo 
    man 

    Oh, 
    I'm 
    an 
    apeman 

    'Cause 
    com
    pared 
    to 
    the 
    sun 

    that 
    sits 
    in 
    the 
    sky 

    Com
    pared 
    to 
    the 
    clouds 
    as 
    they 
    roll 
    by 

    Compared 
    to 
    the 
    bugs 

    and 
    the 
    spiders 
    and 
    flies 

    am 
    an 
    ape
    man 


    Verse 3
    In 
    man's 
    evolution 

    he's 
    created 
    the 
    city 

    and 
    the 
    motor 
    traffic 
    rumble 

    But 
    give 
    me 
    half 
    chance 

    and 
    I'd 
    be 
    taking 
    off 
    my 
    clothes 

    And 
    living 
    in 
    the 
    jungle 

    'Cause 
    the 
    only 
    time 
    that 
    feel 
    at 
    ease 

    Is 
    swinging 
    up 
    and 
    down 
    in 
    coconut 
    tree 

    Oh 
    what 
    life 
    of 
    luxury 

    to 
    be 
    like 
    an 
    ape
    man 

    Chorus 2
    I'm 
    an 
    apeman, 
    I'm 
    an 
    ape, 
    apeman 

    Oh, 
    I'm 
    an 
    apeman 

    I'm 
    King 
    Kong 
    man, 
    I'm 
    voodoo 
    man 

    Oh, 
    I'm 
    an 
    apeman 

    look 
    out 
    the 
    window 

    but 
    can't 
    see 
    the 
    sky 

    The 
    air 
    pollution 
    is 
    a-fogging 
    up 
    my 
    eyes 

    want 
    to 
    get 
    out 
    of 
    this 
    city 
    alive 

    and 
    make 
    like 
    an 
    ape
    man 


    Bridge 1
    Oh 
    come 
    on 
    and 
    love 
    me, 
    be 
    my 
    apeman 
    girl 

    And 
    we'll 
    be 
    so 
    happy 
    in 
    my 
    apeman 
    world 

    Chorus 3
    I'm 
    an 
    apeman, 
    I'm 
    an 
    ape, 
    apeman 

    Oh, 
    I'm 
    an 
    apeman 

    I'm 
    King 
    Kong 
    man, 
    I'm 
    voodoo 
    man 

    Oh, 
    I'm 
    an 
    apeman 

    I'll 
    be 
    your 
    Tarzan, 
    you'll 
    be 
    my 
    Jane 

    I'll 
    keep 
    you 
    warm 
    and 
    you'll 
    keep 
    me 
    sane 

    We'll 
    sit 
    in 
    the 
    trees 
    and 
    eat 
    bananas 
    all 
    day, 

    just 
    like 
    an 
    ape
    man 

    Chorus 4
    I'm 
    an 
    apeman, 
    I'm 
    an 
    ape, 
    apeman 

    Oh,

    • 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.
