    One night 
    upon 
    my motor
    cycle 
    through 
    Verse 1

    the desert 
    sped, 

    And smashed 
    my body 
    so 
    bad, all 

    my friends 
    thought I 
    was dead. 

    My sister 
    held 
    me close 
    and whispered 

    to 
    my bleeding 
    head, 

    "You are 
    the son 
    of 
    a motherfucker
    ." 

    One, two, 
    three, 
    Verse 2
    four... 

    I shook 
    all night 
    and held 
    her hand 
    - - choke 
    Verse 3
    the people, 

    well, I'll 
    be damned. 

    Land 
    of plenty, 
    land 
    of fun, 

    to find 
    out 
    I'm Nim
    rod's 
    son. 

    Verse 4
    Oh, 
    bury 
    me 
    far 

    away, please 
    bury 
    me. 

    Ahhh... 

    the 
    joke 
    has come 
    upon 
    me! 


    Verse 5

    In my motorcycle 
    mirror, 

    I think 
    about 
    the life 
    I've led, 

    And 
    how 
    my soul's 
    been leaking, 

    all 
    the holes 
    where I 
    have 
    bled. 

    My 
    image spoke 
    to me, 

    yes 
    to me, 
    and often 
    said, 

    "You 
    are the son 
    of inces

    tuous 
    union." 

    Verse 6
    One, two, 
    three... 

    Now 
    my head 
    is clear, 
    my roof 
    has walls, 

    my daughter
    's pure, 
    my son 
    is 
    tall. 

    Land 
    of plenty, 
    land 
    of fun, 

    to 
    find out 
    I'm Nim
    rod's 
    son. 

    Verse 7

    Oh, 
    bury 
    me 
    far 
    away, 

    please 
    bury 
    me. 


    Ah
    h
    h... 
    the joke 

    has 
    come upon 
    me!

      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 🙂

      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.
