    Had no destination, we was on a quest

    The sun had just risen on a dusty path
    G
    Am
    G

    Just then a figure had caught my eye

    A man with a sombrero

    who was four feet high

    I pulled over to ask were we was at
    Am

    His index finger he tipped up his hat
    G

    "El Segundo," he said, "my name is Pedro
    Am

    If you need directions,

    Needed civilization,

    I ordered enchiladas and I ate 'em

    Ali had the fruit punch

    When we finished we thought

    for ways to get back

    G

    I had a hunch
    Am

    Ali said, "Pay for lunch"

    Am
    G
    Am

    Put the wallet down

    and stared and stared
    Am

    To put me back into reality,
    G
    Am

    here's Shaheed

    "Yo, Tip, man, you got what you need?"

    Am

    Lord, have mercy
    G

    The heat got hotter, Ali stars to curse me
    Am

    I fell bad but he makes

    me feel badder

    Chit- chit- chatter,

    car stars to scatter
    G

    Breaking on out, we

    was Northeast bound

    Jettin' on down at the speed of sound

    Three days coming and three more going

    We get back and there

    was no slack
    Am

    490 Madison, we're here,
    A
    Am

    Sha
    G

    Am

    Thinking about the past week,
    G

    the last week
    A
    G

    Hands go in my pocket, I can't speak

    Hopped in the car and torpe'ed to the shack


    Of Shaheed, "we gotta go
    Am
    G

    back" when he said

    "Why?" I said, "we gotta go

    • 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.”
