    Verse 1
    I know 
    you see mars 

    in 
    the sky 
    tonight 

    I know you 
    can see 
    venus 
    rising and 

    veering off to the right. 

    but can 
    you 
    see that young 

    star overhead? 

    it's 
    the 
    one 
    that designed 

    my undoing. 

    I know 
    that 
    in california 
    the waves 

    break on the 
    beach. 

    and I know 
    that 
    the 
    foam on 

    the breaking 
    waves 

    is as 
    white 
    as 
    house
    hold 
    bleach. 

    but 
    do you see that 
    particular 

    white 
    right now 

    it's 
    the 
    color of 
    the young 

    star 
    coming 
    on 
    down. 

    I got 
    joy joy joy in 
    my 
    soul 
    tonight 

    I got 
    joy joy joy 
    in 
    my 
    arms 
    alright. 

    although you 
    treat me 
    badly, 

    I love 
    you madly. 

    you 
    really got 
    a hold on 
    me. 

    you really got 
    a hold 


    on me.

      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.

      Well-Designed App

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
