    You 
    know, 
    every 
    now 
    and 
    then 
    think 

    you 
    might 
    like 
    to 
    hear 
    something 
    from 
    us 

    Nice 
    and 
    easy 

    But 
    there's 
    just 
    one 
    thing, 
    you 
    see 

    We 
    never 
    ever 
    do 
    noth
    ing 
    nice 
    and 
    eas

    We 
    always 
    do 
    it 
    nice 
    and 
    rough 

    And 
    we're 
    gonna 
    take 

    the 
    beginning 
    of 
    this 
    song 
    and 
    do 
    it 
    easy 

    But 
    then 
    we're 
    gonna do 
    the 
    finish 
    rough 

    It's 
    the 
    way 
    we 
    do 
    "Proud 
    Mar
    y" 

    (And 
    we're) 
    rolling, 
    rolling 

    Rolling 
    on 
    the 
    river

    one 
    minute 
    of 
    sleeping 

    was 
    worrying 
    'bout 
    the 
    way 

    the

    • 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.
