    Verse 1
    I've 
    been 
    around 
    the 
    the 
    world 

    couple 
    of 
    times 
    or 
    maybe 
    more 

    I've 
    seen 
    the 
    sights, 
    sights, 
    I've 
    had 
    delights 

    On 
    every 
    foreign 
    shore 

    But 
    when 
    my 
    mates 
    all 
    ask 
    me 

    The 
    place 
    that 
    a
    dore 

    tell 
    them 
    right 
    a
    way 

    Chorus 1
    Give 
    me 
    home 
    among 
    the 
    gumtrees

    And 
    an

    rocking 
    chair 

    Verse 2
    You 
    can 
    see 
    me 
    in 
    the 
    kitchen 

    Cooking 
    up 
    roast 

    Or 
    Vegemite 
    on 
    toast 

    you 
    and 
    me, 
    cup 
    of 
    tea 

    Later 
    on, 
    we'll 
    settle 
    down 

    And 
    go 
    out 
    on 
    on 
    the 
    porch 

    And 
    watch 
    the 
    possums 
    play

    And 
    an 
    old 
    rocking 
    chair 

    Bridge 1
    There's 
    Safeways 
    up 
    the 
    corner 

    And 
    Woolies 
    down 
    the 
    street 

    And 
    brand 
    new 
    place 
    they've 
    opened 
    up 

    Where 
    they 
    regulate 
    the 
    heat 

    But 
    I'd 
    trade 
    them 
    all 
    tomorrow 

    For 
    little 
    bush 
    retreat 

    Where 
    the

    burras 
    call

    the 
    front 

    And 
    an 
    old 
    rocking 
    chair 

    Verse 3
    Some 
    people 
    like 
    their 
    houses 

    With 
    fences 
    all 
    around 

    Others 
    live 
    in 
    mansions 

    And 
    some 
    beneath 
    the 
    ground 

    But 
    me 
    like 
    the 
    bush 
    you 
    know 

    With

    running 
    round 

    And

    out 
    the

    • 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.
