    Oh-hoh-hoh-hoh-
    yeah 

    Verse 1
    yeah 
    It's 
    a 
    long 
    straight 
    road 

    and 
    the 
    engine 
    is 
    deep 

    I 
    can't 
    help 
    thinkin' 
    of 
    a 
    good 
    night's 
    sleep 

    And 
    the 
    long 
    long 
    roads 
    of 
    my 
    life 

    were 
    a 
    callin' 
    me 

    Verse 2
    These 
    rough 
    old 
    hands 

    are 
    a-glued 
    to 
    the 
    wheel 

    My 
    eyes 
    full 
    of 
    sand 
    from 
    the 
    way 
    they 
    feel 

    And 
    the 
    lights 
    comin' 
    over 
    the 
    hill 

    are 
    a-blindin' 
    me 

    Verse 3
    It's 
    a 
    long 
    tough 
    haul 

    from 
    a-way 
    down 
    south 

    A 
    man's 
    gotta 
    find 
    a 
    little 
    bread 
    for 
    his 
    mouth 

    And 
    a 
    home 
    for 
    a 
    girl 
    as 
    sweet 

    as 
    my 
    honey 
    can 
    be 

    Verse 4
    So 
    it's 
    down 
    through 
    the 
    gears, 

    she's 
    a-startin' 
    to 
    pull 

    The 
    gauge 
    on 
    the 
    tank 

    is 
    a-showin' 
    they're 
    full 

    And 
    the 
    lights 
    comin' 
    over 
    the 
    hill 

    are 
    a-blindin' 
    me 

    Chorus 1
    There's 
    rain 
    on 
    the 
    road 

    and 
    I 
    can 
    feel 
    the 
    load 
    start 
    a-
    shiftin' 

    In 
    a 
    dance 

    Too 
    late, 
    I 
    see 
    the 
    post 

    and 
    I 
    haven't 
    got 
    a 
    ghost 
    of 
    a 
    chance 

    Ah-
    hah-
    hah-
    no 

    Verse 5
    The 
    windscreen 
    wipers 

    are 
    a-beatin' 
    in 
    time 

    The 
    song 
    they 
    sing 
    is 
    a 
    part 
    of 
    my 
    mind 

    And 
    I 
    can't 
    believe 

    it's 
    a-really 
    happenin' 
    to 
    me 

    Verse 6
    Oh, 
    but 
    I'm 
    over 
    the 
    edge 

    and 
    down 
    the 
    mountain 
    side 

    I 
    know 
    they'll 
    tell 
    about 
    the 
    night 
    I 
    died 

    In 
    the 
    rain 
    when 
    the 
    lights 
    on 
    the 
    hill 

    were 
    a-blindin' 
    me

      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 🙂

      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.
