    Maybellene 

    Maybellene, why can't 
    you 
    be 
    true? 

    Oh 
    Maybellene, why 
    can
    't 

    you be 
    true? 

    You've started 
    back 
    doing 

    the things 
    you 
    used 
    to do. 

    Verse 2
    As I 
    was 
    motivatin' 
    over 
    the 
    hill 

    I 
    saw 
    Maybellene in a 
    coup 
    de ville. 

    A 
    Cadillac 
    a- rollin' 
    on 

    the open 
    road, 

    Nothin' 
    will outrun 
    my 
    V8 Ford. 

    The Cadillac 
    doin' 
    'bout 
    ninety- 
    five, 

    She's 
    bumper 
    to bumper 
    rollin' 

    side 
    by side. 

    Verse 3
    Maybellene, why 
    can't 
    you be 
    true? 

    Oh 
    Maybellene, why 

    can't 
    you be 
    true? 

    You've 
    star
    ted 
    back 
    doing 

    Verse 4
    the things 
    you used 
    to do. 

    Pink in 
    the mirror 
    on top 
    of the hill, 

    It's 
    just 
    like 
    swallowin' 

    up 
    a medicine 
    pill. 

    First 
    thing I saw 
    that 
    Cadillac 
    grille 

    Doin' 
    a hundred 
    and 
    ten 
    gallopin' 

    over 
    that hill. 

    Offhill curve, 
    a downhill 
    stretch, 

    Me 
    and that 
    Cadillac 

    neck by neck. 

    Verse 5
    Maybellene, why 
    can't 
    you be 
    true? 

    Oh 
    Maybellene, why 

    can't 
    you be 
    true? 

    You've 
    started 
    back 
    doing 
    the things 

    you 
    used 
    to do. 

    Verse 6

    The Cadillac 
    pulled 
    up ahead 
    of the Ford, 

    The 
    Ford got 
    hot 
    and 
    wouldn't 
    do 
    no more. 

    It 
    then 
    got 
    clody and it 
    started 
    to rain, 

    I 
    tooted 
    my horn 
    for 

    a passin' 
    lead 

    The rain 
    water 
    blowin' 

    all under 
    my 
    hood, 

    I 
    knew 
    that 
    was 
    doin' 

    my motor 
    good. 

    Verse 7
    Maybellene, why 
    can't 
    you be 
    true? 

    Oh 
    Maybellene, why 
    can

    't 
    you be 
    true? 

    You've star
    ted 
    back 
    doing 

    Verse 8
    the things 
    you 
    used 
    to do. 

    The 
    motor 
    cooled 
    down, 

    the heat 
    went 
    down 

    And 
    that's 
    when 
    I heard 

    that highway 
    sound. 

    The 
    Cadillac 
    a- sittin' 
    like 

    a ton 
    of lead 

    A hundred 
    and ten 
    a half 
    a mile 
    ahead. 

    The 
    Cadillac 
    lookin' 
    like it's 
    sittin' 
    still 

    And I 
    caught 
    Maybellene at the top 

    of the hill. 

    Verse 9
    Maybellene, why 
    can't 
    you be 
    true? 

    Oh 
    Maybellene, why 
    can't 

    you 
    be 
    true? 

    You've started 
    back 
    doing 
    the things 

    Outro 1
    you 
    used 
    to do.

      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.
