    Verse 1
    The 
    wind 
    is 
    in 
    from 
    Africa 

    Last 
    night 
    couldn't 
    sleep 

    Oh, 
    you 
    know 
    it 
    sure 
    is 
    hard 

    to 
    leave 
    here, 
    Carey 

    But 
    it's 
    really 
    not 
    my 
    home 

    My 
    fingernails 
    are 
    filthy 

    I've 
    got 
    beach 
    tar 
    on 
    my 
    feet 

    And 
    miss 
    my 
    clean 
    white 
    linen 

    and 
    my 
    fancy 
    French 
    cologne 

    Chorus 1
    Oh 
    Carey, 
    get 
    out 
    your 
    cane 

    (Carey, 
    get 
    out 
    your 
    cane) 

    And 
    I'll 
    put 
    on 
    some 
    silver 

    (I'll 
    put 
    on 
    some 
    silver) 

    Oh, 
    you're 
    mean 
    old 
    Daddy, 

    but 
    like 
    you 

    Verse 2
    Come 
    on 
    down 
    to 
    the 
    Mermaid 
    Cafe 

    And 
    will 
    buy 
    you 
    bottle 
    of 
    wine 

    And 
    we'll 
    laugh 
    and 
    toast 
    to 
    nothing 
    and 

    Smash 
    our 
    empty 
    glasses 
    down 

    Let's 
    have 
    round 
    for 
    these 
    freaks 

    and 
    these 
    soldiers 

    round 
    for 
    these 
    friends 
    of 
    mine 

    Let's 
    have 
    another 
    round 

    for 
    the 
    bright 
    red 
    devil, 

    who 
    Keeps 
    me 
    in 
    this 
    tourist 
    town 

    Chorus 2
    Come 
    on, 
    Carey, 
    get 
    out 
    your 
    cane 

    (Carey, 
    get 
    out 
    your 
    cane) 

    I'll 
    put 
    on 
    some 
    silver 

    (I'll 
    put 
    on 
    some 
    silver) 

    Oh, 
    you're 
    mean 
    old 
    Daddy, 

    but 
    like 
    you, 
    like 
    you, 

    Verse 3
    like 
    you, 
    like 
    you 

    Maybe 
    I'll 
    go 
    to 
    Amsterdam 

    Or 
    maybe 
    I'll 
    go 
    to 
    Rome 

    And 
    rent 
    me 
    grand 
    piano 
    and 
    put 
    some 

    flowers 
    'round 
    my 
    room 

    But 
    let's 
    not 
    talk 
    about 

    fare-thee-wells 
    now 

    The 
    night 
    is 
    starry 
    dome 

    And 
    they're 
    playin' 
    that 
    scratchy 
    rock 
    and 
    roll 

    Beneath 
    the 
    Matala 
    Moon 

    Chorus 3
    Come 
    on, 
    Carey, 
    get 
    out 
    your 
    cane 

    (Carey, 
    get 
    out 
    your 
    cane) 

    And 
    I'll 
    put 
    on 
    some 
    silver 

    (I'll 
    put 
    on 
    some 
    silver) 

    You're 
    mean 
    old 
    Daddy, 

    but 
    like 
    you 

    Verse 4
    The 
    wind 
    is 
    in 
    from 
    Africa 

    Last 
    night 
    couldn't 
    sleep 

    Oh, 
    you 
    know 
    it 
    sure 
    is 
    hard 
    to 
    leave 
    here, 

    but 
    it's 
    really 
    not 
    my 
    home 

    Maybe 
    it's 
    been 
    too 
    long 
    time 

    since 
    was 
    scramblin' 
    down 
    in 
    the 
    street 

    Now 
    they 
    got 
    me 
    used 
    to 
    that 

    clean 
    white 
    linen 

    and 
    that 
    Fancy 
    French 
    cologne 

    Chorus 4
    Oh 
    Carey, 
    get 
    out 
    your 
    cane 

    (Carey, 
    get 
    out 
    your 
    cane) 

    I'll 
    put 
    on 
    my 
    finest 
    silver 

    We'll 
    go 
    to 
    the 
    Mermaid 
    Cafe, 

    have 
    fun 
    tonight 

    said, 
    oh, 
    you're 
    mean 
    old 
    Daddy, 

    but 
    you're 
    out 
    of 
    sight

    • 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.
