    man 
    with 
    a machine 

    gun 
    make

    boring 
    you 
    dear 
    listener, 

    accept 
    my 
    humble

    You

    singer, 
    no, 

    I'm

    the 
    Indians 
    cried 
    in a 
    Prince 
    George 
    motel 
    room. 

    We 
    were 
    drunker 
    than 
    a thousand 
    white 

    men 
    playing 
    lumber 
    camp 
    saloon. 

    It 
    was 
    Canada

    There were grizzly 
    bears 

    walking

    main 
    street 

    What 
    an 
    amazing 
    sight 
    to see. 

    Verse 5

    well 
    the 
    devil 
    rides 
    a cubist 
    horse, 

    the 
    devil 
    he's 
    got 
    angles 

    but 
    God 
    is 
    an 
    expressionist, he 
    got 
    the devil 

    strangled 
    down 
    in 
    purgatorian limbo 
    in hell 

    Ahh 
    them southern 
    rip 

    joints 
    just 
    like 
    that 

    God's 
    waiting 
    room 
    is full 

    of painters 
    and poets 

    and old 
    black 
    jazz 
    saints 
    in 
    pork 
    pie 
    hats 

    Verse 6
    Oh 
    ex
    cuse 
    me 
    if 
    I'm 
    boring 
    you 
    dear 
    listener, 

    accept 
    my 
    humble 
    apology. 

    You may 
    think 
    I'm some 
    jive 
    folk 
    singer, 
    no, 

    I'm 
    master 
    in 
    the art

      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 🙂

      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.
