Verse 1
G
It's going to be difficult for a audience to accept this,
but we have this automobile
company at home,
the Chrysler Motor Company,
which through the manufacture
of crummy cars
that nobody wants
and other managerial goodies
drove itself onto the shoals
of bankruptcy.
Now I was always raised in civics class
to understand that when you went bankrupt,
you went bankrupt.
That's the end of the road.
You join the great line
of buggy whip manufacturers
into the annals of history there.
Incredibly, that's not what happened.
The president of Chrysler,
man named Lee Iacocca,
went down to Washington
and conned Congress
out of millions of dollars
of loan guarantees of federal money,
my money,
and pumped it all into this company
to keep it in business.
D
Now, I know that you can find
G
that hard to believe here.
I hear your derisory snorts.
Trust me, it actually happened.
Well, maybe a few other places,

Oh, the price of gold is rising out of sight,

seem to flow

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
