    Crazy 

    John, 
    where 
    you gon
    na 
    run 
    to 
    today? 

    Crazy 

    John, 
    so 
    early 
    to 
    be 
    up 
    and 
    away 

    They 
    never 
    can 
    hear 
    you, 

    John 

    So 
    how 
    can 
    you 
    teach 
    them? 

    They 
    never 
    come 
    to 
    hear 
    you, 

    John 

    So 
    how 
    can 
    you 
    reach 
    them? 

    Crazy 

    John, 
    can 
    I 
    come 
    along 
    when 
    you go? 

    Crazy 

    John, 
    you tell 
    them 
    what 

    they don't 
    want 
    to 
    know 

    They 
    never 
    can 
    hear 
    you, 

    John 

    They 
    have 
    no 
    de
    sire 

    They're 
    beginning 
    to 
    fear 
    you, 

    John 

    And 
    the 
    hate's 
    getting 
    higher 

    When 
    you 
    wait 
    in 
    the 
    water, 

    the 
    people 
    can't 
    see 
    the 
    old 
    reflections 

    When 
    you stand 
    in 
    the 
    road, 

    the 
    people 
    can't 
    read 
    the 
    old 
    directions 

    When 
    the 
    people 
    get 
    lost, 

    they 
    start 
    building 
    a 
    cross 

    Crazy 

    John, 
    why 
    you 
    wanna 
    go 
    back 
    again? 

    Crazy 

    John, 
    talk
    in' 
    with 
    the 
    desperate 
    men 

    You 
    have 
    to 
    be 
    crazy, 

    John, 
    for takin' 
    those 
    chances 

    When 
    you could 
    be 
    lazy, 

    John, 
    just 
    playing 
    for 
    dancers 

    When 
    you 
    wait 
    in 
    the 
    water, 

    the people 
    can
    't 
    see 
    the 
    old 
    reflections 

    When 
    you stand 
    in 
    the 
    road, 

    the 
    people 
    can't 
    read 
    the 
    old 
    directions 

    When 
    the 
    people 
    get 
    lost, 

    they 
    start 
    building 
    a 
    cross 

    Crazy 
    time, 

    I 
    want 
    to 
    be 
    crazy 
    too

      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

      "

      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.
