Verse 1
Dm

I was a- playin' rock

and roll in a local theater

Well, I knew it had to happen

to me sooner or later

There was a foxy little lady dancing

down in the front row

I said, "Honey, can you meet me when I

finish the next show?"

There was somethin' about the

lady that really got to me

She was down on my zipper,

tears a- ripplin' through me

She said, "Boy, let me tell you if you're

gonna give me good love

Start makin' good love, it's what

you really got plenty of"
Verse 2
Dm

She told me now,

"Don't go near the water, yeah

If you can't swim the tide"

She told me now,

"Don't go near the water, yeah
Verse 3

If you can't swim the tide"
Dm
C

Dm

Well, let me tell you, couldn't

wait 'til the last song was over

I had sixty- nine ways I was

really gonna show her

So I took her to the dressing

room and really got to it

Everything I thought I'd show

her, well, she already knew it

But I looked at my watch,

it was time for me to go

I said, "Honey,

got to stop or I'll be late for the next show"

She said, "There ain't no way I

got to stop this good thing

If you're gonna be a man,

you got to finish what you started"

  • 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.
