On a bus ride into town

I wondered,
Am

"Why am I going to town?"
Am
G

As I looked around
Am

At the billboards and the stores
G

I thought, "Why do I look
Am

around?"
G

I got up and bowed
Am

And I kissed the filthy ground
G
Am

And in the first dry spot I found
G

I laid back down

Without having to wonder

Why I was laying down

Before long I was too cold

I found a letter left by a pay phone
Am

With no return contact

And it read like a horn blown

By some sad angel:

"Bunny, it was me

It was me who let you down"

It was the shyest attempt

If I didn't have you as my guide

Counting the plates of cars

as they hurry along!)

Until you surround me

You're pretty but you're

all I can see

Like a thick fog

If there was no way into God

Watching trains go by

  • 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.
