    Verse 1
    I've 
    always 
    lived 
    a 
    simple 
    life 

    Worked 
    hard for 

    everything 
    I've 
    got 

    My 
    hours 
    are long 
    and my 
    pay 
    is 
    low, 

    still 
    I can 
    say 
    that 
    I've got 
    a lot 

    Cause 
    I've 
    got a 
    sweet 
    woman, 

    she's 
    all 
    the value 
    that 
    I 
    own 

    And 
    I'm 
    proud 
    to 
    hold my 

    head 
    up 
    high, 

    thankful 
    that 
    I 
    was 
    born 

    Poor, 
    yes 
    indeed, 

    oh 
    but 
    I'm proud, 
    yes 
    siree 

    Oh 
    poor, 
    poor, 
    oh 
    but 
    I'm 
    proud 

    Born 
    and 
    raised in 
    the 
    ghetto 

    My 
    mama 
    had 
    six 
    of 
    us 
    kid
    s 

    An
    d 
    as 
    long as 
    I 
    can remember, 

    we've 
    always 
    been 
    on 
    skid. 

    Daddy 
    died 
    when 
    I 
    was ten, 
    yeah. 

    And 
    this 
    pride 
    is all 
    that's 

    left 
    of 
    him. 

    I 
    remember 
    him 
    saying 

    be
    fore 
    he died, 

    Son, 
    always 
    keep 
    your 
    pride. 

    I'm 
    poor, 
    yes 
    indeed. 

    Oh, 
    but 
    I'm 
    proud, 
    yes 
    siree 

    I'm 
    poor, 
    poor, 
    hey, 

    but 
    I'm 
    proud 

    You 
    know sometimes 
    I 

    think about 
    this 
    world 

    And 
    I wonder 
    why 
    people 

    think 
    the 
    way they 
    do 

    They'll 
    say 
    that 
    they're in 
    your corner 

    When 
    all the 
    time 

    they don't 
    give 
    a damn 
    about 
    you 

    They 
    look 
    at 
    me 
    with scorn 

    Cause 
    my 
    clothes 
    are 
    torn 
    and worn 

    But 
    they 
    can't 
    see 

    Proud 
    as 
    me 

    I'm 
    thankful 
    that 
    I was 
    born 

    Oo
    h, 
    yes 
    indeed 

    Ooh 

    Ooh, 
    oo
    h 

    Oh, 
    I'm 
    proud 

    Oo
    h 

    I'm 
    proud 

    Oh, 
    I'm 

    Oh, 
    I'm 
    proud 

    They 
    can't 
    take 

    that 
    away 
    from 
    me 

    Oh, 
    I'm proud 

    Bye 
    -bye.

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
