    Verse 1
    Spanish 

    Johnny 
    drove 
    in 
    from 
    the 
    un
    derworld 
    last 
    night 

    With 
    bruised 
    arm
    s and 
    broken 
    rhythm 

    And 
    a beat-up 
    old 
    old 
    Buick 
    but 

    dressed 
    just 
    like 
    dynam
    ite 

    He tried 
    sellin' 
    his 
    heart 
    to 
    the 

    hard 
    girls 
    over 
    on 
    easy 
    Street 

    But 
    they 
    said, 
    Johnny, 
    it falls 
    apart 
    so 
    easy 

    And 
    you know 
    hearts 

    these 
    days 
    are cheap 

    And 
    the pimps 
    swung 
    their 
    axes 
    and 
    said, 

    Johnny, 
    you're 
    cheater 

    And 
    the pimps 
    swung 
    their 
    axes 
    and 
    said, 

    Johnny, 
    you're a liar 

    And 
    from 
    out 
    of the 
    shadows 

    came 
    a young 
    girl's 
    voice 

    Said, 
    Johnny, 
    don't 
    cry 

    Puerto 
    Rican 
    Jane, 
    oh, 

    won't 
    you 
    tell 
    me, 
    what's 
    your 
    name? 

    want 
    to drive 
    you 
    down 
    to 
    the 

    other 
    side 
    of town 

    Where 
    para
    dise 
    ain't 

    so 
    crowded 

    And there'll 
    be 
    action 
    goin' 

    down 
    on Shanty 
    Lane 
    tonight 

    All 
    the 
    golden-heeled 
    fairies 

    fairies 
    in a 
    real 
    bitch-fight 

    Pull 
    Pull 
    thirty-eight's 
    and 
    and 

    kiss 
    their 
    girls 
    goodnight 

    Verse 2
    Oh, 
    goodnight, 
    it's 
    alright, 
    Jane 

    Now 
    let 
    them 
    black 
    boys 
    in 

    to 
    light 
    the 
    soul 
    flame 

    We 
    may 
    find 
    it 
    out 
    on 
    the street 
    tonight, 

    baby 

    Or 
    we 
    may 
    walk 
    until 
    the daylight, 

    maybe 

    Verse 3

    Well, 
    like 
    a cool 
    Romeo 
    he 
    made 
    his moves, 

    oh, 
    she 
    looked so 
    fine 

    Like 
    a late 
    Juliet, 
    she 
    knew 
    she'd 
    never 
    be true 
    but 
    then, 

    she 
    really 
    didn't 
    mind 

    Upstair
    s a band 
    was playin' 

    And 
    the singer 
    was 
    singin' 

    something 
    about 
    go
    ing 
    home 

    She 
    whispered, 
    Spanish 
    Johnny, 

    you 
    can 
    leave 
    me 
    tonight 

    But 
    just 
    don't 
    leave 
    me 
    alone 

    And 
    Johnny 
    cried, 

    Puerto 
    Ric
    an 
    Jane 

    Word 
    is 
    down, 

    the 
    cops 
    have 
    found 
    the 
    vein 

    Oh, 
    them 
    barefoot 
    boys 
    left 

    their homes 
    for 
    the woods 

    Them 
    little 
    bare
    foot 
    street 
    boys, 

    they 
    said 
    their 
    homes 
    ain't 
    no 
    good 

    They 
    left 
    the 
    corners, 

    threw 
    away 
    all 
    of their 
    switchblade 
    knives 

    And 
    kissed 
    each 
    other 
    goodbye 

    Verse 4
    Johnny 
    was 
    sittin' 
    on the 
    fire 
    escape, 

    watch
    in' 
    the kids 
    playin' 
    down 
    the street 

    He called 
    down, 
    hey 
    little 
    heroes, 

    summer's 
    long 

    But 
    I guess 
    it ain't 
    very 
    sweet 

    around 
    here 
    anymore 

    Janey 
    sleep
    s in 
    sheets 

    damp 
    with sweat 

    Johnny 
    sits 
    up 
    alone 
    and 
    watches 
    her dream 
    on, 

    dream 
    on 

    And the 
    sis
    ter 
    prays 
    for 
    lost 
    souls 

    Then 
    breaks 
    down 
    in 
    the chapel 

    af
    ter 
    everyone's 
    gone 

    Verse 5
    Jane 
    moves 
    over 
    to share 
    her pillow 

    But 
    opens 
    her eyes 
    to 
    see 
    Johnny 

    up 
    an
    d putting 
    his clothes 
    on 

    She 
    says, 
    those 
    ro
    mantic 
    young 
    boys 

    (those romantic 
    young 
    boys) 

    All 
    they 
    ever 
    want 
    to do 
    is 
    fight 

    Those 
    ro
    mantic 
    young 
    boys 

    (those romantic 
    young 
    boys) 

    They're

    through 
    the window

    Spanish 
    Johnny,

    to make 
    a little 
    easy

    all 
    tight,

    • 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.
