    Verse 1
    Hey 
    Jack 
    Kerouac 

    think 
    of 
    your 
    mother 

    And 
    the 
    tears 
    she 
    cried, 

    they 
    were 
    cried 
    for 
    none 
    other 

    Than 
    her 
    little 
    boy 
    lost 

    in 
    our 
    little 
    world 
    that 
    hated 

    And 
    that 
    dared 
    to 
    drag 
    him 
    down 

    Her 
    little 
    boy, 
    courageous 

    Chorus 1
    Who 
    chose 
    his 
    words 
    from 
    mouths 
    of 

    Babes 
    got 
    lost 
    in 
    the 
    wood 

    Hip 
    flask 
    slinging 
    madmen, 

    steaming 
    cafe 
    flirts 

    They 
    all 
    spoke 
    through 
    you 

    Verse 2
    Hey, 
    Jack 

    Now 
    for 
    the 
    trick
    part 

    When 
    you 
    were 
    the 
    brightest 
    star 

    Who 
    were 
    the 
    shadows? 

    Of 
    the 
    San 
    Francisco 
    beat 
    boys 

    You 
    were 
    the 
    fa- 
    vorite 

    Now 
    they 
    sit 
    and 
    rattle 
    their 
    bones 

    And 
    think 
    of 
    their 
    blood-stoned 
    days 

    Chorus 2
    You 
    chose 
    your 
    words 
    from 
    mouths 
    of 

    Babes 
    got 
    lost 
    in 
    the 
    wood 

    The 
    hip 
    flask 
    slinging 
    madmen, 

    steaming 
    cafe 
    flirts 

    In 
    Chinatown, 
    howling 
    at 
    night 

    Interlude 1




    Verse 3
    Allen 
    baby, 
    why 
    so 
    jaded 

    Have 
    the 
    boys 
    all 
    grown 
    up 

    and 
    their 
    beau
    ty 
    faded? 

    Billy, 
    what 
    saint 
    they've 
    made 
    you 

    Just 
    like 
    Mary 
    down 
    in 
    Mexico 

    on 
    All 
    Souls' 
    Day 

    Chorus 3
    You 
    chose 
    your 
    words 
    from 
    mouths 
    of 

    Babes 
    got 
    lost 
    in 
    the 
    wood 

    Cool 
    junk 
    booting 
    madmen, 

    street 
    minded 
    girls 

    In 
    Harlem, 
    howling 
    at 
    night 

    Interlude 2




    Outro 1
    What 
    tear- 
    stained 

    shock 
    of 
    the 
    world 

    You've 
    gone 
    a
    way 
    without 
    saying 

    Saying 
    good
    bye

    • 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.
