    Verse 1
    I'm 
    tired 
    of 
    this 
    dirty 
    old 
    city 

    En

    much 
    work 

    and 
    never 
    enough 
    play 

    And 
    am 
    tired 

    these 
    dirty 
    old 
    sidewalks 

    Think 
    I'll 
    walk 
    off 
    my 
    steady 
    job 
    to
    day 

    Chorus 1
    Turn

    the 
    middle 
    of 
    Mon
    tana 

    And 
    give 
    me 
    all 
    I've 
    got 
    coming 
    to 
    me 

    And 
    keep 
    your 
    retirement 

    And 
    your 
    so-called 
    social 
    se

    Interlude 1



    Verse 2
    Been 
    working 
    every 
    day 
    since 
    was 
    twenty 

    Haven't 
    got 
    thing 
    to 
    show 

    for 
    anything 
    I've 
    done 

    There's 
    folks 
    who 
    never 
    work 

    and 
    they've 
    got 
    plenty 

    Think 
    it's 
    time 
    some 
    guys 
    like 
    me 

    had 
    some 
    fun, 
    so

    I've 
    got 
    coming 
    to

    keep 
    your 
    retirement 

    And 
    your 
    so-called

    • 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.
