    I want a balloon,

    a loon, a loon
    C

    that I can tie a ribbon to
    D

    And my balloon, a loon,
    G

    a loon can drift away

    And I expect it very soon
    C

    that my balloon, a loon, a loon
    D

    Will be floating in the skies
    G

    of Mandalay

    Let's go walking in the green,

    green grass
    D

    Let's go down to the park

    Swingin' on the swings,

    slidin' on the slide,
    G

    we won't come home till dark

    You can throw the ball to Peter,

    he can throw the ball to me

    Then I'll turn around and
    C

    throw it back to you

    Then just to make it perfect

    There is something that I want so much to do

    can drift away

    Let's have a party in the old treehouse
    D

    Let's have toast and jam

    Let's all dress in our

    parents' old clothes
    G

    Let's have cheese and ham

    We'll pretend that we're deserted

    in the jungle
    C

    Where the animals are coming very soon

    And the only hope of rescue
    D
    G
    E

    is to ride an S .O .S.

    and tie it to a balloon -a -loon -a -loon

    And my balloon -a -loon -a -loon

    • 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.
