    • Verse 1
    Well it 

    stumbles 
    and 
    it falls 

    off 
    of almost 
    every 
    tongue 

    Give 
    a 
    listen 
    and you'll 
    hear 

    It's 
    workin 
    like 
    a landmine 

    in almost 
    every 
    sentence 

    It's 
    an 
    assault 
    to 
    my mind's 
    ear 

    Verse 2
    Yeah 
    it 
    might 
    have started 
    back 

    with Jack 
    Kerouac 

    Probably 
    more than 
    likely 

    it was 
    Maynard 
    G. 
    Krebs 

    It's 
    the 
    four letter 
    word 
    that 

    used to 
    mean 
    'as 
    if' 

    And 
    the mean
    ing's 
    covered 
    in 

    cobweb
    s 


    Cobwebs 

    Verse 3
    Used 
    to 
    be 
    a preposition 

    then 
    it was 
    a conjunction 

    Now 
    it's 
    used 
    as 
    an audible 
    pause 

    Oh 
    I 
    hate 
    it when 
    I hear 

    it especially 
    when I 
    see it 

    Gotta 
    stamp 
    it out 
    there ought 

    to be some 
    laws 

    Verse 4
    College 
    boys 
    valley 
    girls 
    mall 

    rats 
    grandmammas 

    Every
    body's 
    misusin that word 

    I 
    heard 
    it four 
    times 
    in 

    one poor 
    little 
    sentence 

    It 
    was the 
    saddest 
    sound 

    I ever 
    have heard 

    Cobwebs 

    Cobweb
    s

    Verse 5

    I suppose 
    you could 
    blame 

    it on 
    my 
    generation 

    Chickens 
    from 
    the 
    60s finally 

    comin 
    into roost 

    I've been 
    sayin 
    it myself 

    for over 
    thirty 
    years 
    now 

    Just to 
    give 
    my cool 
    quota 
    just 

    a little 
    bitty 
    kind 
    of a boost 

    Verse 6
    But 
    when 
    I 
    hear 
    it 

    I can't 
    stand 
    it 

    Especially 
    coming 
    out 
    of the 

    mouth
    s of 
    one of my 
    own 
    kids 

    Verse 7
    It's 
    been 
    taught 
    and, 
    God, 

    What 
    have 
    we 
    wrought? 

    Give a 
    listen 
    here, 

    what 
    do we dig? 


    Verse 8
    I 
    prefer 
    ah 
    or er 

    You can 
    rest 
    assured 

    If 
    you're 
    sayin 
    what 
    you mean 
    then 

    it don't 
    mean 
    a thing 

    It's just 
    an 
    ugly 
    little 
    four 
    letter 
    word 

    Doesn't 
    Verse 9
    anybody 
    care 

    or 
    am I the 
    only 
    one? 

    Am 
    I just 
    stuck 
    back 

    in some 
    kind 
    of a past? 

    Maybe 
    it's 
    harmless 

    but 
    it feels 
    like 
    a virus 

    And 
    it 
    sounds 
    like it's 

    catchin 
    on 
    fast

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
