    Verse 1
    With your 
    fan 
    belt 

    slippin' 
    and 
    your bare 
    tires 
    squealin' 

    Every 
    time 
    you hit 
    the 
    road 
    you 

    think 
    you're 
    rich 

    You're 
    lord 
    of 
    the 
    highway 
    but 

    the way 
    you been 
    drivin' 

    Sends 
    them 
    hitch-hikers 

    divin' 
    for 
    for 
    the ditch 

    Verse 2
    Well 
    the law's 
    on 
    your 
    trail 
    and there's 

    another 
    law 
    to 
    lead 
    you 

    And 
    yet 
    another 
    law 
    to 
    let 
    you 
    down 

    And the 
    laws 
    of 
    the game 
    they're 

    the very 
    same 
    that freed 
    you 

    The lord 
    of the 
    high
    way 

    Interlude 1
    gets 
    around 



    Verse 3
    You 
    weren't 
    the only 
    one 
    who saw 

    the 
    dark 
    days 
    a-comin' 

    And 
    And you 
    weren't 
    the only 

    one 
    who 
    shut 
    'em out 

    It 
    was noth
    in' 
    like 
    your 
    pride, 

    it was 
    somethin' 
    deep 
    inside 

    That 
    saw 
    the shim
    mer, 

    felt 
    the 
    shake 
    and heard 
    the 
    Shout 

    Verse 4
    So 
    lay 
    it 
    on 
    thick 
    if you 

    lay 
    it 
    on 
    at all 

    If you're 
    gonna 
    do 
    the job, 
    do 
    it 
    right 

    If 
    you got
    ta 
    hit 
    the road, 

    leave 
    your 
    bur
    dens 
    behind 
    you 

    The lord 
    of the 
    high
    way 
    travels 
    light 

    Interlude 2







    Verse 5
    With 
    your air 
    cleaner 
    hissin' 
    and 

    your ra
    diator 
    steam
    in' 

    And 
    the sun 
    burnin' 
    bugs 

    to 
    the glass 

    You're 
    lord 
    of the 
    highway 
    ,you're 
    liv
    in', 

    you're 
    not 
    dreamin' 

    And if 
    time 
    really 
    wants 
    to, 
    let 
    it 
    pass 

    You'll 
    be 
    Verse 6
    miles 
    down 
    the 
    road 

    when the 
    toll 
    bridge 
    is 
    burnin' 

    And your 
    mirrors 
    face 
    forward 
    at last 

    You 
    got 
    what 
    it takes 
    to be 

    lord 
    of 
    the 
    highway 

    The 
    lord 
    of 
    the high
    way 
    travels 
    fast

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.
