    Verse 2
    Nothing 
    makes 
    sound 

    in 
    the 
    night 
    like 
    the 
    wind 
    does 

    But 
    you 
    ain't 
    a
    fraid 
    if 
    you're 
    washed 

    in 
    the 
    blood 
    like 
    was 

    The 
    smell 
    of 
    cape 
    jasmine 

    through 
    the 
    win
    dow 
    screen 

    John 
    R. 
    and 
    the 
    Wolfman 
    kept 
    me 
    company 

    By 
    the 
    light 
    of 
    the 
    radio 
    by 
    my 
    bed 

    With 
    Thomas 
    Wolfe 
    whispering 
    in 
    my 
    head 

    Chorus 2

    himself 
    up 
    on 

    bour
    bon 
    and

    When

    eighteen, 
    Lord,

    • 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.
