Verse 1

Palabod

All aboard!
D
G

The hissing breath of the iron steed
D
G

Proclaims his wish to be quickly freed,
C
Am
D

And soon, as the stroke of the bell we hear,
G

He springs at the touch of his engineer.
D

In the weary glide, O prairies wide,
G
D

From errant mills and mountain dales
G

To the last great chain,
C

which is driven in vain,
G
C

In the lightning, the lightning,
D
G

the lightning palace chain.
D

Forgetting far Atlantic,
G
D

and midway scenes romantic,

We scale the peaks gigantic,
A
D

which guard the land of gold.

Her silver rills are leaping,
G
D

her lovely lakes are sleeping,

And snow -clad granites keeping
A
D

Their watch of years untold.
G

We sing a wondrous story
D
G

No nation sang before,
C
D

A continental chorus

That echoes by the shore.
G

We sang it on the summit,

We sing it on the plain,

We've climbed the Grand Sierra's

No toil can tire our impatient steed,
D
G

So once again we will test his speed.
C
A

How quick is the wish of our heart obeyed!
D

He starts at the turn of the
G

downward grade,
D

And again we glide by Torrent's side,
G

O 'er Dressel the deeps,
D

through Dunno the steeps,
G

While the victories wane,
C

which they sought to gain,
G
C

With the lightning, the lightning,
D
G

the lightning palace train.
D

Neath timbered roofs are ending,
G
D

from winter snows defending,

Through canyons wild
A
D

we descend into the city of the plain.

We leave the scenes terrific,
G
D

we pass the fields prolific,

And view the broad Pacific
A
D

the Golden Gate had made.

We sing a wondrous story

  • 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.
