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.”

Verse 1

G
Let's not worry, let's not fret
A
D
If it's gonna rain, you might get wet
G
But if you do, don't stand and cry
A
Cause you ain't got the sense
D
to get where it's dry
A
Oh, listen to me, that's philosophy
D
That's philosophy, that's philosophy
G
Em
If you're broken, badly bet,
A
maybe you're down to your
D
very last cent.
G
Em
Don't feel badly, don't be blue,
A
D
there's a million other folks just like you.
Oh listen to me, that's philosophy,
that's philosophy, that's philosophy.
G
Em
Now don't complain when things go wrong,
A
D
it'll straighten out as you go along.
Em
And if you stay awake at night,
A
F#m
maybe it's because you
D
don't live right.
Oh, listen to me, that's philosophy,
A
that's philosophy,
D

Grandma used to say to me,
A
F#m
D
you got to face the world eventually,
G
Em
so take the bitter with the sweet
A
D
till you cross the sunny side of the street.
Oh listen to me, that's philosophy,
that's philosophy, that's philosophy.
G
Em
Now take it easy, take it slow,
A
D
no use to hurry, nowhere to go,
G
Em
when you get there what you gonna do?
A
Cause there's your shadow,
D
there are you.
Oh listen to me, that's philosophy,
that's philosophy,
A
D
that's philosophy.
G
Now there's the moral of
Em
this year's tale,
F#m
Bm
follow the rules and you'll never fail,
Em
but if you don't, one thing is true,
A
F#m
you ain't heard a word
D
we've sung to you.
Oh, listen to me. That's philosophy.
That's philosophy.
That's philosophy.

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

“I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
