    Verse 1
    When 

    I 
    was 
    a 
    lad 
    of 
    three-foot-three 

    Certain 
    Certain 
    Certain 

    questions 
    oc
    curred 
    to 
    me, 

    So 
    I 
    asked 
    me 
    father 
    quite 
    seriously 

    To tell 
    me 
    the story 
    'bout 
    the 

    bird 
    and 
    bee. 

    He stammered 
    and 

    he stuttered 
    pathetically 

    And 
    this 
    is 
    what 
    he said 
    to 
    me. 

    He 
    said, 
    "The 
    Verse 2
    woman 

    piaba and 
    the 
    man 
    piaba 

    and 
    the Ton 
    Ton 
    call 
    baka 
    lemon 
    grass, 

    The 
    lily 
    root, 
    gully 
    root, 
    belly 
    root 
    uhmm, 

    And 
    the 
    famous 
    grandy 
    scratch 

    scratch. 

    Verse 3

    It 
    was 
    clear 
    as 
    mud 
    but 

    it covered 
    the 
    ground 

    And 
    the 
    confusion 
    made 

    the 
    brain 
    go 
    'round. 

    I 
    went 
    and 
    ask 
    a 
    good 
    friend 
    of 
    mine, 

    Known 
    to 
    the 
    world 
    as 
    Albert 
    Einstein. 

    He 
    said 
    "Son, 

    from 
    the 
    beginning 
    of time 
    and 
    cre
    ativity 

    There 
    existed 
    the 
    force 
    of 
    re
    lativity 

    Pi 
    r 
    square 
    and 
    a 
    minus 
    ten 

    means 
    a 
    routine 
    only 
    when 

    The 
    solar 
    system 
    in 
    one 
    light 
    year 

    Make 
    the 
    Hayden 
    planetarium 
    disappear 

    So 
    if 
    Mt 
    Everest 
    doesn't 
    move 

    I 
    am 
    positive 
    that 
    it 
    will 
    prove 

    Verse 4
    That 
    the 
    woman 
    piaba and 
    the 
    man 
    piaba 

    And 
    the 
    Ton 
    Ton 
    call 
    baka 
    lemon 
    grass, 

    The 
    lily 
    root, 
    gully 
    root, 
    belly 
    root 
    uhmm, 

    And 
    the famous 
    grandy 
    scratch 

    scratch. 

    Verse 5

    It 
    was 
    clear 
    as 
    mud 
    but 

    it 
    covered 
    the 
    ground 

    And 
    the 
    confusion 
    made 
    the 
    brain 
    go 
    'round. 

    I 
    grabbed 
    a 
    boat 
    and 
    went 
    abroad 

    In Baden 
    Baden 
    asked 
    Sigmun
    d Freud 

    He 
    said 
    "Son, 

    from 
    your 
    sad 
    face 
    remove 
    the 
    grouch

    Verse 7
    Well I

      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.
