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.”
California chords by 
April Smith
N/A•
Verse 1
G
All of these things that I wanted for you
Em
C
You set out to find them
and I hope that you do
Am
But all that I hope for
C
D
G
you is all that I fear
The thought of you leaving
D
plays out in my head
Am
C
Am
Will you really do it
G
Am
or turn back instead?
When you realize
C
D
G
that all that you love is right here
Am
You're fighting the feeling
C
D
G
and the voice that keeps calling for you
D
Am
C
D
G
What will it be? Me or California?
Am
G
Your eyes are not laughing now,
I know it's no joke
C
Cause you've lost something in you
since the last time we spoke
Am
It's the thing I held on to,
C
D
G
it's the thing that I loved you for
And now that I see it,
as it falls from your eyes,
C
will I just let it drop?
Cause I know now, I realize,
Bm
Am
that it is not mine,
C
D
you are not mine anymore
G
Am
And then you say to me,
C
D
G
don't tell me, I didn't warn you
Am
Cause winter, just isn't me,
C
D
G
and I'm leaving for California
Am
D
You have to go, you have to go,
G
Em
I hear it in your voice, listen as it echoes
Am
D
You have to go, you have to go,
G
Em
I hear it in your voice, listen as it echoes
Am
C
So stop telling me and start
D
Em
Am
D
walking away
Am
G
And did you expect me to curl up and die
Am
C
Am
While you turned a promise into a lie
C
Am
Did it surprise you
D
G
Bm
G
how easily I let you go?
D
G
It just wasn't meant,
it must have been fate
C
Cause you realized, but a second too late
Bm
Am
A life without me
C
was a life
D
G
you just didn't wanna know
Am
And the words that I wished for
C
D
G
Darling, I'm standing for you
Am
So get your ass on a plane
C
D
G
and I'll see you in California
Am
Yeah, the words that I was cryin'
C
D
G
I'm turnin' out and standin' for ya
Am
So get your ass on a plane
C
D
And I'll see you in California

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.”
