Verse 1
D
Dm
Well my heart's in The Highlands,
D
Dm
gentle and fair
D
Honeysuckle blooming in
G
the wildwood air
Bluebells blazing where the
D
Aberdeen waters flow
A
Well my heart's in The Highlands
G
I'm gonna go there when I feel
D
good enough to go
Interlude 1
Verse 2
D
Windows were shaking all
night in my dreams
Dm
D
Everything was exactly the
G
way that it seems
Woke up this mornin' and I looked
D
A
at the same old page
Same old rat race,
G
D
life in the same old cage
Dm
I don't want nothin' from anyone,
D
Dm
D
Dm
D
ain't that much to take
Dm
Wouldn't know the difference between
D
G
a real blonde and a fake
D
Feel like a prisoner in a world of mystery
A
G
I wish someone'd come and
D
push back the clock for me
Verse 3
D
Well my heart's in The Highlands
wherever I roam
That's where I'll be when
G
I get called home
The wind it whispers to the
D
buckeye trees of rhyme
A
Well, my heart's in The Highlands
G
D
I can only get there one step at a time
Dm
I'm listening to Neil Young,
D
Dm
D
I gotta turn up the sound
Dm
D
Someone's always yellin'
G
"Turn it down"
Feel like I'm driftin',
D
A
driftin' from scene to scene
I'm wonderin' what in the devil
G
D
could it all possibly mean
Interlude 2
Verse 4
D
Insanity is smashin' up against my soul
G
You could say I was on anything but a roll
If I had a conscience,
D
A
well I just might blow my top
What would I do with it anyway,
G
D
maybe take it to the pawn shop?
Dm
My heart's in The High
D
lands at the break of dawn
G
By the beautiful lake of the Black Swan
Big white clouds like chariots
D
that swing down low
A
Well my heart's in The Highlands,
G
only place left to go
D
Verse 5
I'm in Boston town in some restaurant
G
I got no idea what I want
Or maybe I do but I'm just
D
A
really not sure
Waitress comes over,
G
D
nobody in the place but me and her
Well it must be a holiday,
Dm
D
there's nobody around
G
She studies me closely as I sit down
She got a pretty face and long
white shiny legs
D
Verse 6
A
G
I said "Tell me what I want"
She say "You probably want
D
hard boiled eggs"
I said "That's right, bring me some"
She says "We ain't got any,
G
you picked the wrong time to come"
Then she says "I know you're an artist,
D
draw a picture of me"
A
G
I said "I would if I could but
D
I don't do sketches from memory"
Well she's there,
she says "I'm right here in front of you
Verse 7
Or haven't you looked?"
D
I say "All right, I know but I don't
G
have my drawin' book"
She gives me a napkin,
D
A
she say "You can do it on that"
G
I say "Yes I could but I don't
D
know where my pencil is at"
She pulls one out from behind her ear
She says "Alright now go ahead draw
G
me I'm stayin' right here"
I make a few lines and I show
D
it for her to see
A
Well she takes the napkin and
G
throws it back and says
Interlude 3
"That don't look a thing like me"
D
Verse 8
Dm
I said "Oh kind miss,
D
it most certainly does"
She say "You must be joking",
I said "I wish I was"
G
She says "You don't read
women authors do ya?"
At least that's what I
D
think I hear her say
A
Well I say "How would you know,
G
D
and what would it matter anyway?"
Well she says "Ya just don't
seem like ya do"
I said "You're way wrong"
She says "Which ones have you read then?",
I say "Read Erica Jong"
G
She goes away for a minute,
D
and I slide out, out of my chair
A
I step outside back to the busy street,
G
but nobody's goin' anywhere
D
Verse 9
Dm
Well my heart's in The Highlands
D
with the horses and hounds
Way up in the border country
G
far from the towns
With the twang of the arrow
D
and the snap of the bow
A
My heart's in The Highlands,
G
D
can't see any other way to go
Every day is the same thing, out the door
Feel further away than ever before
G
Some things in life it just
D
gets too late to learn
A
Well I'm lost somewhere,
G
I must have made a few bad turns
Interlude 4
D
Dm
I see people in the park,
Verse 10
Dm
D
forgettin' their troubles and woes
They're drinkin' and dancin',
G
wearin' bright colored clothes
All the young men with the young
D
women lookin' so good
A
Well, I'd trade places with any of 'em,
G
D
in a minute if I could
I'm crossin' the street to get
away from a mangy dog
G
Talkin' to myself in a monologue
I think what I need might be a
D
full-length leather leather coat
A
G
Somebody just asked me if
Interlude 5
I'm registered to vote
D
Dm
D
The sun is beginnin'
Verse 11
to shine on me
But it's not like the sun that
G
used to be
The party's over and there's
D
A
less and less to say
I got new eyes,
G
D
everything looks far away
Well my heart's in The Highlands
at the break of day
G
Over the hills and far away
There's a way to get there,
and I'll figure it out somehow
D
A
G
Well I'm already there in my mind
Outro 1
and that's good enough for now

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.”
