    Verse 1
    Cool 
    air 
    falls 
    through 
    the 

    venetian 
    blinds 
    and 

    The planets 
    in 
    the heavens 

    are per
    fectly 
    aligned 

    I take 
    in 
    my 
    sur
    roundings 

    I 
    memorize 
    them 
    all 

    The scuff 
    marks 
    on the 
    stone 
    floor, 

    The 
    powder 
    burns 
    on 

    the eastern 
    wall 

    Verse 2
    There's 
    a 
    monkey 
    in 
    the base
    ment 

    How 
    did the 
    monkey 
    get 
    there? 

    There's 
    a monkey 
    in 
    the base
    ment 

    Where 
    did the monkey 
    come 
    from? 

    Where 
    did the 
    monkey 
    come 
    from? 

    Where 
    did the 
    monkey 
    come 

    Interlude 1
    from? 



    Verse 3
    The 
    animal 
    noises 
    you 
    used 
    to make 

    The 
    andalusian 
    coral 
    snake 

    All 
    hail 
    when standing 
    be

    side 
    this 
    room 

    And the 
    heavy 
    hot 
    rains 
    and 

    the 
    sonic 
    boom 

    Verse 4
    There's 
    a 
    monkey 
    in 
    the base

    from? 

    There's 
    a monkey 
    in 
    the base
    ment 

    How 
    did the monkey 
    get 
    there? 

    How 
    did the monkey 
    get 
    there? 

    How 
    did the monkey 
    get 
    there?

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
