    I bought 
    the 
    Mississip
    pi 
    Verse 1
    River

    Of course 
    that 
    don't 

    include 
    the 
    towns 

    Or 
    the 
    people 

    Around 
    the 
    Mississippi 

    Well, 
    to 
    cinch 
    the deal 
    the 
    man 
    threw 

    In 
    a 
    boat 
    with crew 

    And then 
    I knew 
    I'd 
    better 
    grab 
    that 

    River 
    fast 

    It 
    wouldn't 
    last 

    They 
    never 
    do, 
    they 
    nev
    er 
    do 

    It would
    n't 
    last, 
    last, 
    last 

    So now 
    I own 
    the Mis
    sissip
    Verse 2
    pi 

    I couldn't 
    decide 

    if 
    I should 
    leave 
    it 
    there 

    Or 
    lug 
    it out 
    West 
    with 
    me 

    The 
    best 
    thing was 
    to 
    think 
    about 
    it 

    Not 
    to make 
    a move 
    I might 
    re
    gret 

    'Cause 
    then I'd 
    have 
    to have 
    the 

    Mississippi 
    sent 
    back 
    East, 
    complete 

    With 
    boat 
    and 
    crew 

    That wouldn't 
    do, 
    do, 

    do 

    Verse 3

    It's 
    mine, 
    all 
    mine 

    (You know, it's 
    yours, 
    all 
    yours) 

    It's 
    mine, 
    all 
    mine 

    (You know, it's 
    yours, 


    all 
    yours) 

    Do rivers 
    ever 
    need 
    companions 
    Verse 4

    Should 
    I inquire 
    if the 
    Seine 
    is 

    Avail
    able, 
    yeah, 
    I would 
    rather 
    have 

    A 
    classy 
    little 
    Frenchy 
    than 
    a 
    Nile 
    or 

    A Tybo, oh 

    Now 
    wait 
    a minute, 
    how 
    about 
    the 

    Amazon, 
    now 
    that 
    could 
    be 
    real 
    fun 

    For 
    Mississippi, 
    for 
    Mississippi 

    For 
    Mississippi, 
    My 
    Mississippi 

    Verse 5
    I hope that 
    I 
    didn't make an 
    error 

    I hope 
    this 
    ain't a lot 

    more 
    trouble 

    Than 
    it's 
    all 
    really 
    worth

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
