    • Verse 1
    Someone 
    had 
    the right idea 
    out 
    in Iowa. 

    Palo 
    Alto 
    County had 
    its own 

    straw 
    poll. 

    Folks who 
    listened 
    to their 
    radio 

    were 
    told 
    to flush their 
    toilets 

    so 
    their candidate 
    might 

    win the 
    Super Bowl. 

    Folks 
    in Emmits
    burg 

    have 
    got things 
    in perspective 

    and 
    good 
    common 
    sense 

    that they 
    rely 
    upon. 

    When 
    the 
    beaming 
    smiles 

    and golden 
    throats 

    come shaking 
    hands 
    and 

    begging 
    votes. 

    The folks 
    in 
    Em
    mitsburg 

    head 
    for 
    the 
    John. 

    If 
    you 
    love 
    that 
    politician, 
    pull 
    the 
    chain. 

    Send 
    a world 
    of 
    war 

    and trouble 
    down 
    the drain. 

    It's 
    the road 
    to 
    satisfaction. 

    It's 
    a 
    natural 
    reaction. 

    If 
    you 
    love 
    that 
    politician, 

    pull 
    the 
    chain. 

    If 
    you 
    like 
    the things 
    he said, 

    use your 
    head 

    You 
    can 
    show 
    the world 

    you think 
    he's 
    thorough
    bred 

    Choose 
    a 
    favorite 
    son 
    or 
    daughter 

    with 
    a 
    little 
    running 
    water 

    If 
    you like 
    the 
    things 
    he 
    said, 

    use your 
    head 

    Do 
    you 
    get 
    that 
    familiar 
    feel
    in' 

    When 
    you 
    hear 
    the 
    things 
    he 
    say 

    When 
    the 
    hum 
    their familiar 
    tunes, 

    Do your 
    thoughts 
    all 
    turn 
    to prunes, 

    Are you 
    headed 
    for 
    Hernando's 
    hideaway? 

    If 
    the man 
    gets 
    through to 
    you, 

    use 
    your lube, 

    If 
    he is 
    not 
    number 
    one, 

    he's 
    number 
    two, 

    He's 
    the 
    greatest 
    guy 
    on 
    earth, 

    why 
    don't 
    you 
    show 
    him 
    what 
    he's 
    worth, 

    If 
    the 
    man 
    gets 
    through 
    to you, 

    use 
    your 
    lube. 

    Do 
    you 
    get 
    that 
    familiar 
    feel
    ing 

    When 
    you 
    hear 
    those 

    things 
    they 
    say? 

    When they 
    hum 
    those 
    familiar 
    tunes 

    Do 
    your 
    thoughts 
    all 
    churn 
    to prunes? 

    Are you 
    headed 
    for 
    Hernando's 
    hideaway? 

    If 
    you

    that 
    father 
    jis
    hon 

    Pull 
    the 
    chain, 
    pull 
    the chain 

    Send 
    the 
    world 
    of 
    woe

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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 🙂

      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.
