    Verse 1
    These 
    are just 
    the simple 
    facts, 

    will 
    relate 
    to 
    you 

    Though 
    they 
    are not 
    connected, 

    each 
    and 
    every 
    one 
    is 
    true 

    If they 
    seem 
    a bit 
    untidy, 
    well, 

    unrav
    eling 
    them 
    is fun 

    I will 
    not stand 
    corrected, 

    have not 
    harmed 
    anyone 

    Verse 2
    I just 
    let 
    it ride 

    Ride, 
    let 
    it ride 

    Leavin' 
    on the even
    in' 
    tide 

    Just 
    let it 
    ride 

    Verse 3
    Better 
    I listen 
    to my 
    heart, 

    some
    times 
    fail 
    to find 

    One 
    sane 
    and simple 
    an
    swer 
    on 

    the 
    bright 
    side 
    of my 
    mind 

    Even 
    when I'm 
    sleep
    ing, 

    can't 
    seem 
    to 
    unwind 

    I just 
    let 
    it ride 


    Verse 4
    I knew 
    a man 
    from Windsor 
    who 

    went 
    to Detroit 
    every 
    night 

    And 
    stateside of 
    the tunnel 
    customs 

    agents 
    gave 
    him flight 

    He 
    threw his 
    stash 
    in the 
    river 
    and 

    his bedroll 
    on 
    the ground 

    And 
    when 
    they fi
    nally 
    got 
    there, 

    a sleeping 
    man 
    was 
    all that 
    they 
    found 

    Verse 5
    He just 
    let 
    it ride 

    Ride, 
    let 
    it ride 

    Leave 
    on the 
    evenin' 
    tide 

    Just 
    let it 
    ride 

    Verse 6

    Hear the 
    steeple 
    bell 
    ring 
    out 

    above 
    my 
    lobster 
    pots 

    I might 
    be 
    out 
    here 
    fishin' 
    man 

    but 
    that 
    ain't 
    where 
    it stops 

    The 
    mouths 
    feed 
    are many 
    and they 

    all 
    say 
    thanks 
    a lot 

    They just 
    let it 
    ride 

    Verse 7
    One day 
    when 
    I'm 
    old 
    and gray 

    an' consider 
    what's 
    gone 
    by 

    always 
    will 
    be proud 
    of 
    every 

    tear 
    I've 
    ever 
    cried 

    And 
    all 
    of 
    the 
    old 
    jokes 
    we told 

    around 
    the candle 
    light 

    To 
    all 
    those 
    tender 
    damsels 
    who 

    had 
    helped 
    us in 
    the 
    night 

    Verse 8
    They 
    just 
    let 
    it ride 

    Ride, 
    let 
    it ride 

    Leavin' 
    on the 
    evenin' 
    tide 

    Just 
    let it 
    ride 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    let it 
    ride 

    Verse 9

    Here's 
    to the 
    girls 
    from 
    London 

    and 
    the ones 
    from 
    Montreal 

    We 
    never 
    will 
    forget 
    them, 

    we still 
    fantasize 
    them 
    all 

    knew one 
    in 
    St. 
    Louis 
    on 

    a Missouri 
    afternoon 

    met 
    one up 
    in Shanghai 

    and 
    an
    other 
    in Rangoon 

    I just 
    let it 
    ride 
    Verse 10

    Ride, 
    let 
    it ride 

    Leave 
    on the evenin' 
    tide 

    Just 
    let 
    it ride 

    Ride, 
    ride, 
    ride 
    Verse 11

    I'm 
    gonna 
    let 
    it ride 

    Leavin' 
    on the 
    evenin' 
    tide 

    Just 
    let 
    it ride

    • 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.
