    Verse 1
    Woke 
    up this 
    mornin' 

    With 
    an awful 
    achin' 
    head. 

    Woke 
    up this 
    mornin' 

    With 
    an 
    aw
    ful 
    achin' 
    head. 

    My 
    new 
    man 
    left 
    me. 

    I'm 
    just 
    a bloom 
    in 

    an empty 
    bed. 

    Verse 2
    Now, 
    when my 
    bed 
    gets 
    empty 

    I 
    get 
    to feelin' 
    kind 

    of mean 
    and 
    blue. 

    When 
    my 
    bed 
    gets 
    empty, 

    Get 
    to feel
    in' 
    awful 
    mean 
    and 
    blue. 

    The 
    springs 
    are gettin' 
    rusty 

    Sleepin' 
    single 
    like 
    I 
    do. 

    Verse 3
    I 
    bought 
    me a 
    coffee 
    grinder, 

    The 
    best 
    one 
    I 
    could 
    find. 

    You 
    know 
    that I 
    bought 
    me 
    a 

    brand 
    new 
    coffee 
    grinder
    , 

    The 
    best 
    one 
    I 
    could 
    find, 

    So 
    he 
    could 
    grind 
    my 
    coffee. 

    Babe, 
    I 
    got a 
    brand 
    new 
    grind. 

    You 
    gotta 
    try, 
    girl, 
    you 
    gotta 
    try. 

    Verse 4
    He 
    was a 
    deep 
    sea 
    diver

    With 
    a stroke 
    that 
    could 

    not 
    go 
    wrong. 

    Deep, 
    deep 
    sea, 
    deep 
    sea 
    diver 

    With 
    a stroke 
    that 
    just 
    could 
    not 
    go wrong. 

    He 
    could 
    touch 
    the 
    bottom, 

    And 
    his 
    wind 
    held 
    out 

    so 
    long. 

    Verse 5
    Oh, 
    he 
    boiled 
    my 
    cabbage, 

    And 
    he made 
    it 
    awful 
    hot, 

    mmmm. 

    He 
    boiled 
    it, 
    I 
    got 
    to 
    tell 
    you 

    That 
    he 
    made 
    it, 
    made 
    it 
    awful 
    hot. 

    But 
    when 
    he 
    slipped 
    the 
    bacon 
    in, 

    He 
    overflowed 
    the 
    pot! 

    Verse 6
    Yeah, 
    yeah, 
    yeah, 
    yeah, 

    yeah, 
    yeah, 
    yeah. 

    What 
    a 
    sweet 
    man 
    he was. 

    I 
    went 
    and told 
    my girlfriend 
    Lou. 

    Remember 
    that 
    old 
    rag 

    of a girl 
    named 
    Lou? 

    Real 
    sweet 
    man. 

    I 
    went 
    and told 
    my 
    girlfriend 
    Lou. 

    That 
    way 
    that 
    girl 
    is, 
    baby, 

    She 
    must 
    have had 
    a 
    piece 
    of 
    it, 
    too. 

    Verse 7
    And 
    now 
    when you 
    get 
    good 
    lov
    in', 

    Don't 
    you, 

    don't 
    you 
    spread 
    the 
    news. 

    Don't 
    you 
    spread 
    the news. 

    When you 
    get 
    it 
    and 
    it's 
    good, 

    good, 
    good, 

    You 
    really 
    ought 
    not 
    to, 

    You ought 
    not 
    to 
    spread 
    the news. 

    Because 
    those 
    gals 
    will 
    doublecross you 
    and 
    leave 
    you, 


    Those 
    gals 
    will 
    doublecross you, 

    and 
    they 
    do, 

    Those 
    gals 
    will 
    doublecross you 

    And 
    leave 
    you, 
    leave 
    you, 
    leave 
    you, 

    Leave 
    you 
    with 
    the 
    empty 
    bed 
    blues! 

    Zah!

      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.
