    Verse 1
    You 
    know 
    it 
    doesn't 
    make 
    much 
    sense 


    There 
    ought 
    to 
    be 
    law 
    against 


    Any
    one 
    who 
    takes 
    offense 


    At 
    day 
    in 
    your 
    celebration 

    'Cause 
    we 
    all 
    know 
    in 
    our 
    minds 


    That 
    there 
    ought 
    to 
    be 
    time 


    That 
    we 
    can 
    set 
    aside 


    To 
    show 
    just 
    how 
    much 
    we 
    love 
    you 

    And 
    I'm 
    sure 
    you 
    would 
    agree 

    What 
    could 
    fit 
    more 
    perfectly 

    Than 
    to 
    have 
    world 
    party 

    on 
    the 
    day 
    you 
    came 
    to 
    be 

    Chorus 1
    Happy 
    birthday 
    to 
    you 

    Happy 
    birthday 
    to 
    you 

    Happy 
    birth
    day 

    Happy

    you 

    Happy

    day 

    Verse 2
    just 
    never 
    understood 


    How 
    man 
    who 
    died 
    for 
    good 


    Could 
    not 
    have 
    day 
    that 
    would 


    Be 
    set 
    aside 
    for 
    his 
    recognition 

    Because 
    it 
    should 
    never 
    be 


    Just 
    be
    cause 
    some 
    cannot 
    see 


    The 
    dream 
    as 
    clear 
    as 
    he 


    That 
    they 
    should 
    make 
    it 
    be
    come 
    an 
    illusion 

    And 
    we 
    all 
    know 
    everything 

    That 
    he 
    stood 
    for 
    time 
    will 
    bring 

    For 
    in 
    peace, 
    our 
    hearts 
    will 
    sing 

    Thanks 
    to 
    Martin 
    Luther 
    King 

    Chorus 2
    Happy 
    birthday

    • 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.
