    Verse 1
    When I 
    walk 
    the hill 
    so 
    high 

    Around 
    the town 
    where 
    was 
    born 

    New York 
    seems 
    so far 
    away 

    Though 
    was there 
    just 

    yesterday 


    Verse 2
    I have 
    played 
    on 
    my 
    guitar 

    In 
    coffee
    houses, 
    hall 
    and 
    bars 

    Everyone 
    that I 
    call 
    friend 

    Knows 
    they will 
    not 
    be 

    forgot 


    Verse 3
    Trains 
    and 
    planes 
    and 
    ren
    ted 
    cars 

    Singers, 
    saints 
    and 
    other 
    starts 

    suspect 
    them 
    every 
    one 

    They'll 
    never 
    change, 
    it's 
    too much 
    fun 

    Just 
    for now 
    I'd 
    Verse 4
    like 
    to rest 

    In 
    the shade 
    of 
    maple 
    tree 

    To 
    the blue 
    Cana
    dian 
    sky 

    I'll 
    say 
    a prayer 
    for the 
    world 

    out 
    there 


    Verse 5
    When I 
    stand 
    on 
    my 
    own sod 

    It 
    feels 
    so good 
    to 
    be home, 

    by 
    God 

    The winter 
    wind 
    has turned 
    my 
    head 

    But 
    always 
    came up 
    warm 

    somehow 


    Verse 6
    Bottles, 
    beads 
    and 
    ci
    garettes 

    And 
    lovers 
    that 
    I ain't 
    found 
    yet 

    Pickin' 
    with 
    a friend 
    till 
    dawn 

    And 
    singing 
    all 
    of those 
    hi'way songs 


    Verse 7

    Just for 
    now I'd 
    like 
    to rest 

    In 
    the shade 
    of 
    maple 
    tree 

    To 
    the blue 
    Cana
    dian 
    sky 

    I'll 
    say 
    a prayer 
    for the 
    world 

    out 
    there 


    Verse 8
    When 
    walk 
    the hill 
    so 
    high 

    Around 
    the town 
    where I 
    was 
    born 

    New York 
    seems 
    so far 
    away 

    Though 
    was there 
    just 
    yesterday 

    Verse 9
    would travel 
    all my 
    life 

    If 
    loneli
    ness 
    was 
    not 
    the price 

    While 
    headin' 
    north 
    across 
    that 
    line's 

    The 
    only 
    time 
    I'm 
    fly
    in'

    • 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.
