  • Verse 1
    You 
    called 
    me 
    last 
    night 
    on 
    the 
    telephone 

    And 
    was glad 
    to 
    hear 
    from 

    you 'cause 
    was 
    all 
    alone 

    You said, 
    "It's snowing, 
    it's 
    snowing! 
    God, 

    I hate 
    this 
    weather." 

    Now 
    walk 
    through 
    blizzards 
    just 

    to 
    get 
    us 
    back 
    together 

    Verse 2

    We 
    met 
    in 
    the 
    springtime 
    at 

    rock-and-roll 
    show 

    show 

    show 

    It 
    was 
    on 
    the 
    Bowery 
    when 

    it 
    was 
    time 
    to 
    go 

    We 
    kissed 
    on 
    the 
    subway 
    in the 

    middle 
    of 
    the 
    night 

    I held 
    your 
    hand, 
    you 
    held 
    mine, 

    it 
    was 
    the 
    best 
    night 
    of 
    my 
    life. 

    Verse 3
    'Cause 
    everyone's 
    your 

    friend 
    in 
    New 
    York 
    City 

    And 
    everything 
    looks 
    beautiful 
    when 

    you're 
    young 
    and 
    pretty 

    The streets 
    are 
    paved 
    with 
    dia
    monds 

    and 
    there's 
    just 
    so 
    much 
    to 
    see 

    But 
    the 
    best 
    thing 
    about 
    New 
    York

    • 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.
