    Verse 1
    Well 
    Johnson 
    Van 
    Dyke 
    Grigsby 

    was 
    paroled 
    in 
    '89 

    He never 
    walked 
    on 
    a carpet 

    never 
    tasted 
    dinner 
    wine 

    His 
    old 
    eyes 
    were slowly 
    fadin' 

    as 
    he 
    walked 
    out 
    of 
    the 
    gate 

    And 
    he 
    breathed 
    the 
    first 
    free 
    air 
    he'd 

    breathed 
    since 
    19-0-8 

    Howdy 
    do 
    Michigan 
    City 

    you're 
    sure 
    pretty 
    sight 

    But 
    I 
    know 
    there's 
    bigger 

    citties and 
    more 
    excitin' 
    nights 

    But 
    I 
    think 
    your 
    girls're pretty 
    and 

    I 
    love 
    your 
    children 
    too 

    Michigan 
    City 
    Indiana 
    howdy 
    do 
    Michigan 

    City 
    Indiana 
    howdy 
    do 

    Michigan 
    City Indiana 
    howdy do 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    Filled 
    with 
    the 
    joy 
    of 
    freedom 
    he 

    didn't 
    know 
    that 
    he 
    was 
    old 

    'Cause 
    time 
    don't 
    really 
    matter 

    when 
    it's 
    bubblin' 
    in 
    your 
    soul 

    Well 
    I 
    don't 
    think 
    he 
    was 
    bitter 

    cause 
    he 
    sure 
    had 
    a smile 

    And 
    down 
    the 
    streets 
    of 
    Michigan 
    City 
    he 

    walked 
    his 
    first 
    free 
    miles 


    Outro 1
    Howdy 
    do 
    Michigan 
    City

    • 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.”
