    New York 
    City

    alright, 
    that's 
    OK 
    by

    want 
    piece 

    of 
    concrete 
    in my 
    town 

    like 
    sun
    shine, 
    fresh 
    clean 
    air 

    Makes 
    me 
    feel 
    like 
    you 
    wouldn't 
    care 
    but 

    That's 
    all 
    right, 
    each 
    to his 
    own 

    But 
    one 
    smell 
    from the 
    city 

    And this 
    country 
    boy 
    is gone 

    Big 
    city, 
    hard 
    times 
    don't 
    bother 
    me 

    I'm a 
    coun
    try 
    boy, 

    I'm as 
    happy 
    as 
    I can 
    be

    don't

    • 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.
