Verse 1

I cleared

the rocks and

timber

from the

wild

New

England

shore,

labored

long and

hard

to make it

grow.

built the

first log

cabins

and I

raised

a family,

told

King

George

and all his

redcoats

where

go.

I'm

the

man that

built the

bridges,

I'm the

man that

laid the

track,

I'm the

man that

built this

country

with my

shoulders

and my

back.

I'm

the

man that

built the

power dams

and

oiled

all the

cars

And

I laid

down the

cornerstone

for

this great

land of

ours

I'm

the

boy that

drove the

wagons

when the

people

headed west

Dug

canals

and

pulled

the barges

on their

way

built and

ran the

factories,

cut the

tim

ber for

your

homes

Drove

the

oxen

when I

cut and

baled

the hay

I'm

the

man that

built the

bridges

I'm

the

man that

laid the

track

I'm

the

man that

built this

country

with my

shoulders

and my

back

I'm

the

man that

built the

power dams

and

oiled

all the

cars

And

I laid

down the

cornerstone

for

this great

land of

ours

built the

old sod

shanties

and I

raised

the prairie towns

made

the railroad

run from

sea to

sea

raised and

drove

the cattle

feed a

growing land

And

the mining

towns are

there because

I'm

the

man that

built the

bridges,

I'm the

man that

laid the

track,

I'm the

man that

built this

country

with my

shoulders

and my

back

I'm

the

man that

built the

power dams

and

oiled

all the

cars,

and

I laid

down the

cornerstone

for

this great

land of

ours

stoked the

mighty

furnaces

and

rolled

the flame and

steel,

operated

oil rigs

and

wells

And

when the

country

needed them,

built the

planes and

tanks

send the

tyr

ants

down to

frying

hell

I'm

the

man that

built the

bridges,

I'm the

man that

laid the

track I'm

the

man that

built this

country

with my

And

I laid

down the

cornerstone

for

this great

land of

ours

Well,

face may

not be

pretty and

clothes

are not the

And

there ain't no

big shots

in my

family

tree

But

if you're

wondering

who it

was that

made this

country great

You

don't

have to

look no

fur

ther,

it was

I'm

the

man that

built the

bridges,

I'm the

man that

laid the

track I'm

the

man that

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.

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.

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.
