    Verse 1
    New York 
    City 
    gripped 
    me, 

    like 
    big 
    old 
    machine 

    went 
    into 
    one 
    side 

    and 
    landed 
    in a 
    dream 

    It 
    stirred me 
    up 
    and made 

    me shout 

    And some
    times 
    for
    got about 

    The 
    way the 
    wind 
    blows 
    in and 
    out 

    The 
    cot
    tonwood 
    trees 

    And 
    Verse 2
    oh, 
    it's easy 
    to lose 
    your mind 

    might've 
    lost 
    mine 

    If I hadn't 
    found you 

    Verse 3
    The 
    avenues, 
    the boulevard

    Businesses 
    and 
    school 
    yards 

    Shopping 
    malls 
    and 
    mo
    torcars 

    All 
    in 
    one 
    scene 

    The 
    Verse 4
    lowest 
    lows, 
    and 
    the 
    highest 
    highs 

    The 
    meanest 
    noise 
    and 

    the 
    lullabies 

    The poison 
    and the com
    promise 

    The 
    unspoken 
    scream 

    And 
    Verse 5
    oh, 
    it's so hard 
    to find 
    your place 

    And 
    never 
    found mine 

    If 
    I hadn't 
    seen 
    your face 


    Verse 6
    And you can 
    be 
    my 
    Buster 
    Keaton, 

    I'll 
    be 
    Blossom 
    Dearie 

    We 
    can see 
    the world 
    so 

    clearly 

    You'll colour 
    the grey 
    away 

    I will 
    sing 
    you song
    s all 
    day 

    The 
    decay 
    will 
    just 
    turn to 
    blue moons 

    As 
    we look 
    at 
    the 
    good 
    old- fashioned 

    moon 

    Verse 7

    Well, 
    New York 
    City 
    split 

    me 
    like 
    log 
    in a mill 

    Half 
    of 
    me happy, 
    the 
    other half 
    ill 

    But I feel 
    myself 
    a- warm

    ing 
    to the 
    old 
    neon 
    chill 

    still feel 
    a long
    ing, 

    but its chased 
    by 
    a thrill 

    Verse 8
    And 
    oh, 
    its so 
    hard 
    to 
    find 
    your place 

    I'd 
    never 
    found 
    mine 

    If I hadn't 
    seen 
    your face 

    And 
    Verse 9
    you can 
    be 
    my 
    Buster 
    Keaton, 

    I'll 
    be 
    Blossom 
    Dearie 

    We can 
    see 
    the world 
    so 

    clearly 

    You'll colour 
    the grey 
    away 

    And 
    I will 
    sing 
    you song
    s all 
    day 

    The 
    decay 
    will 
    just 
    turn to 
    blue 
    moons 

    We 
    look at 
    the 
    good 
    old- fashioned 

    moon

    • 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.
