    Verse 1
    I've 
    been 
    in every 
    bar 

    Been in 
    every 
    honky- tonk 

    Been tryin' 
    to 
    find 
    my daddy 

    With 
    that 
    broke 
    down 
    piece 
    o' junk 

    Ask 
    everyone 
    to 
    help me 

    Cried, 
    "Help 
    me 
    if you can 

    you'll 
    lnow my 
    daddy 

    He's 
    that trombone 
    playin' 
    man 

    Where 
    is my 
    daddy? 

    Tell me 
    where 
    is my 
    daddy 

    With that 
    big 
    long 
    slidin' 

    thing? 

    Verse 2
    I 
    even 
    ask 
    a man 

    That 
    played 
    a steel 
    guitar 

    He 
    said 
    that 
    you 
    don't need 
    him 

    To 
    be 
    moved 
    eight 
    to 
    the bar 

    He 
    brought 
    his 
    amplifier 

    And 
    he 
    hitched 
    it in 
    my 
    plug 

    He 
    planked 
    it, 
    and he 
    plunked 
    it 

    But 
    it just 
    was
    n't 
    good enough 

    'Cause 
    I 
    need my 
    daddy 

    Need 
    my 
    daddy 
    with 
    that big 

    long 
    slidin' 
    thing 

    Well, 
    then 
    a knock 
    Verse 3
    came 
    at 
    my 
    door 

    I 
    said, 
    mmh, 
    my daddy's 
    back 

    I 
    opened 
    up 
    the door 

    And 
    there 
    stood 
    Piano 
    Jack

    He said, 
    "I 
    came 
    to 
    do 
    some tinklin' 

    On 
    your 
    piano 
    keys 

    I 
    said, 
    "Don't 
    make 
    me nervous 

    This 
    ain't 
    no 
    time 
    to 
    tease 

    Just 
    send 
    me 
    my 
    daddy 

    Send 
    me my 
    daddy 
    with 
    that big 
    long 

    slidin' 
    thing 

    Well, 
    the first 
    Verse 4
    time 
    he 
    played 

    I 
    ask 
    him how 
    it 
    was done 

    He 
    said, 
    "I blow 
    through 
    here 

    Then 
    I work 
    my 
    fingers 
    and my 
    thumb 

    I 
    slide 
    it 
    right 
    up 

    Then 
    I slide 
    it 
    back 
    again 

    And 
    I 
    gdet a 
    lot 
    o' wind 

    And 
    then 
    I slide 
    it 
    back 
    again 

    That 
    is my 
    daddy 

    With that 
    big 
    long 
    slid
    ing 
    thing, 

    oh yeah

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.

      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

      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 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
