    Verse 1
    Well 
    she seemed 

    all 
    right 
    by 
    dawn's 
    early 
    light 

    Though 
    she 
    looked 
    a little 

    worried 
    and 
    weak 

    She tried 
    to 
    pretend 
    he 

    wasn't 
    drinkin' 
    again 

    But 
    Daddy'd left 
    the proof 
    on 
    her 
    cheek 

    And 
    I 
    was 
    only 
    eight 
    years 

    old 
    that 
    summer 

    And I 
    always 
    seemed 
    to 
    be 
    in 
    the way 

    So 
    I 
    took 
    myself 
    down 
    to the 
    fair 
    in 
    town 

    On 
    Independence 
    Day 

    Well 
    word 
    gets 
    around 
    in a small, 

    small 
    town 

    They said 
    he 
    was 
    a dangerous 
    man 

    Mama 
    was 
    proud 
    and 

    she stood 
    her 
    ground 

    But 
    she 
    knew 
    she was 
    on 
    the 
    losin' 
    end 

    Some 
    folks 
    whispered 
    and some 
    just 
    talked 

    But 
    every
    body 
    looked the 

    other 
    way 

    And when 
    time 
    ran 
    out 

    there was 
    no 
    one 
    about 

    On 
    Independence 
    Day 

    Let 
    freedom 
    ring, 
    let 
    the white 
    dove 
    sing 

    Let 
    the 
    whole 
    world 
    know 
    that 

    today 
    is a 
    day 
    of 
    reckoning 

    Let 
    the weak 
    be 
    strong, 

    let the 
    right 
    be 
    wrong 

    Roll 
    the 
    stone 
    away, 
    let 
    the guilty 
    pay 

    It's 
    Inde
    pendence 
    Day 

    Verse 2

    Well 
    she 
    lit 
    up 
    the 
    sky 
    that fourth 
    of July 

    By the 
    time 
    that 
    the firemen 
    come 

    They just put 
    out the 
    flames, 

    took 
    down 
    some 
    names 

    And 
    sen
    t 
    me 
    to 
    the county 
    home 

    Oh, 
    and 
    I 
    ain't 
    sayin' 
    it's 

    right 
    or it's 
    wrong 

    But 
    maybe 
    it's 
    the 
    only 
    way 

    Talk 
    about 
    your 
    revolu
    tion 

    It's 
    Independence 
    Day

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
