    Verse 1
    Read 
    in 
    the 
    paper 

    about 
    a man 
    killed 
    with a sword 

    And 
    that 
    made 
    my think 
    of 

    my 
    friend 
    George 

    People 
    said 
    the man 
    was 
    five 
    foot 
    six 

    Sounds 
    like 
    George 
    with 
    his 
    killing 
    stick 

    Verse 2
    Hey 
    Bro, 
    what's 
    the word 

    Talkin' 
    'bout 
    My 
    Friend 
    George 

    Hey 
    Bro, 
    what's 
    the 
    word 

    Talkin' 
    'bout 
    My 
    Friend 

    George 

    You're talkin' 
    'bout My 
    Friend 
    George 

    Verse 3
    knew 
    George 
    since 
    he's 
    eight 

    always 
    thought 
    that 
    he 
    was 
    great 

    Anything 
    that 
    George 
    would 
    do 

    You 
    know 
    that 
    would 
    do 
    it 
    too 

    Verse 4
    George 
    liked 
    music 
    and George 
    liked 
    to fight 

    He worked 
    out 
    in 
    a downtown 

    gym 
    every 
    night 

    I'd spar 
    with 
    him 
    when 

    work 
    has 
    done 

    We split 
    lips 
    but 
    it 
    was 
    all 
    in fun 

    Verse 5
    Hey 
    Bro, 
    what's 
    the 
    word 

    Talkin' 
    'bout 
    My 
    Friend 
    George 

    Hey 
    Bro, 
    what's 
    the word 

    Talkin' 
    'bout 
    My 
    Friend 
    George 

    Verse 6
    Next 
    thing 
    I hear 
    George's 
    got 
    this 
    stick 

    And 
    using 
    it 
    for more 
    than 
    kicks 

    I see 
    him 
    down 
    at 
    Smal
    ley's 
    bar 

    He 
    was 
    wired 
    up, 

    tried 
    to calm 
    him 
    down 

    Verse 7
    Avenge 
    yourself 
    he says 
    to me 

    Avenge 
    yourself 
    for 
    human
    ity 

    Avenge 
    yourself 
    for 

    the weak 
    and 
    the poor 

    Stick 
    it 
    to these 
    guys 
    fight 

    through 
    their 
    heads 

    Well, 
    the fight 
    is 
    my 
    music, 

    the stick 
    is my 
    sword 

    And 
    you 
    know 
    that 
    love 
    you, so 

    please 
    don't 
    say 
    a word 

    Can't 
    you 
    gear 
    the music 
    playing, 

    the 
    anthem, 
    it's 
    my 
    call 

    And 
    the last 
    seen 
    of 
    George 
    was 

    him 
    running 
    through 
    the door 

    Verse 8
    I says, 
    Hey 
    Bro, 
    what's 
    the word 

    Talkin' 
    'bout 
    My 
    Friend 
    George 

    Hey 
    Bro, 
    what's 
    the 
    word 

    You're 
    talkin' 
    'bout 
    My 
    Friend 
    George 



    Talkin' 
    'bout 
    My 

    Friend 
    George

    • 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.
