  • Verse 1
    would 
    while 
    away 
    the 

    hours 

    Conferin' with 
    the 
    flowers 

    Consult
    in' 
    with 
    the 
    rain 

    And 
    my 
    head 
    I'd 
    be scratchin' 

    While 
    my 
    thoughts 
    were 
    busy 
    hatchin' 

    If 
    only 
    had 
    a brain. 

    I'd 
    Verse 2
    unravel 
    every 
    riddle, 

    For 
    every 
    individle, 

    In 
    trouble 
    or in 
    pain. 

    With 
    the thoughts 
    you 
    could be 
    thinkin', 

    You 
    could 
    be 
    another 
    lincoln, 

    If 
    you 
    only 
    had a 
    brain. 

    Oh 
    Verse 3
    I, 
    could 
    tell 
    you 
    why, 

    The 
    ocean's 
    near 
    the 
    shore. 

    could 
    think 
    of 
    things 
    never 

    thought 
    be
    fore, 

    Then I'd 
    sit, 
    and 
    think 
    some 
    more. 

    Verse 4
    would 
    not 
    be 
    just 
    a nothin', 

    My 
    head all 
    full 
    of 
    stuffin', 

    My 
    heart 
    all full 
    of 
    pain. 

    would 
    dance 
    and 
    by 
    merry, 

    Life 
    would 
    be 
    dingle 
    derry, 

    If 
    only 
    had 
    a brain.

    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.
