    Verse 1
    I've 
    been 
    struggling 
    up 
    here, 
    child, 

    trying 
    to 
    make 
    living 

    Everybody 
    wants 
    to 
    take, 

    nobody 
    like 
    giving 

    I wish 
    was in 
    Memphis 
    back 

    home 
    there 
    with 
    my 
    Mama 

    The 
    only 
    clothes 
    got 
    left 
    that 

    ain't 
    rags 
    is 
    my 
    pajamas 

    No 
    brotherly 
    love, 
    no 
    help, 
    no 
    danger 

    Just 
    great 
    big 
    town 
    full 
    of 

    Verse 2
    cold 
    hearted 
    strangers 


    went 
    hungry 
    in 
    New 
    York 

    and Chicago 
    was 
    no 
    better 

    But 
    today, 
    my 
    dear 
    mother 
    wrote 

    and 
    told 
    me 
    in 
    her 
    letter 

    Son, 
    come 
    back 
    to 
    Memphis 
    and 

    live 
    here 
    with 
    your 
    Mama 

    You 
    can 
    walk 
    down 
    Beale 
    Street, 

    honey, 
    wearing 
    your 
    pajamas 

    You 
    know 
    home 
    folks 
    here, 

    we 
    let 
    do 
    just 
    what 
    you 
    want 
    to 

    And 
    born 
    you 
    and 
    raised 
    you 
    right 

    Interlude 1
    here 
    on

    corner 




    Verse 3
    I'm 
    going 
    to 
    leave 
    here 
    in the 
    morning 

    and 
    walk 
    down 
    to 
    the station 

    I've 
    got 
    just 
    enough 
    money 

    to 
    pay 
    my 
    transportation 

    I'm 
    go
    ing 
    back 
    to 
    Memphis, 

    back 
    home 
    with 
    my 
    Mama 

    If 
    have 
    to 
    ride 
    that 
    bus 

    barefooted 
    in 
    pajamas 

    Back 
    home 
    in 
    Memphis, 

    no 
    moaning 
    and 
    groaning 

    know 
    everything 
    will 
    be 

    Outro 1
    all 
    right 
    in 
    the 
    morning

    • 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.
