    Verse 1
    The tour 
    bus 
    came 
    yesterday 

    The 
    driver's 
    mess 
    today 

    It's 
    a dump 
    of a 
    destiny 

    But 
    it's 
    got 
    a view 

    Now the 
    kid 
    in the see- 
    through 
    blouse 

    She's 
    moving 
    in hard 
    on 

    his 
    holy 
    vows 

    Since 
    the 
    preacher's 
    not 
    dead 

    Dead 
    drunk will 
    have 
    to do 


    Verse 2
    Oh 

    Night 
    of the 
    iguana 

    Verse 3
    The 
    jasmine 
    is so 

    mercilessly 
    sweet 

    Ooh 

    Night 
    of 
    the 
    iguana 

    Verse 4
    Can 
    you hear 
    the castanets? 

    The 
    widow 
    is dancing 

    Down 
    on the 
    beach 

    Interlude 1




    Verse 5
    The starlight 
    is 
    steaming 

    He'd 
    like to 
    be dreaming 

    His senses 
    are screaming 

    Not 
    to be 
    denied 

    But if 
    the 
    spell 
    of the night 
    should 
    win 

    He could 
    lose 
    his bus 

    For 
    the 
    same 
    sweet 
    sin 

    That 
    took 
    his church 
    from 
    him 

    Then 
    how will 
    he 
    survive? 


    Verse 6
    Ooh 

    Verse 7
    Night 
    of the 
    iguana 


    The 
    jasmine 
    is so 
    mercilessly 
    sweet 

    Mm 

    Night 
    of 
    the 
    iguana 


    Verse 8
    Can you 
    hear the 
    castanets? 

    It's the 
    widow 
    and her 
    lover 
    boys 

    Interlude 2
    Down on 
    the 
    beach 




    Verse 9
    Oh 

    The night 
    is 
    so 
    fragrant 

    These 
    women 
    so 
    flagrant 

    They could 
    make 
    him a vagrant 

    With 
    the flick 
    of 
    a shawl 

    The 
    devil's 
    in sweet 
    six
    teen 

    The 
    widow's 
    good 
    look
    ing 

    but 
    she 
    gets 
    mean 

    He's 
    burning 
    like 
    Augustine 

    Verse 10
    With no 
    help from 
    God 
    at all 


    Ooh 

    Mm 

    Night 
    of the 
    iguana

    • 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.
