Intro 1
Am
Verse 1
Am
Saw an ad in the newspaper
that caught my eye
I said to my baby this sounds
like the ticket for you and I
It said volunteers wanted for
a very special trip
To commune with Mother Nature
on a big wooden ship
F
We took a taxi to the river in case
any places were free
There was an old guy with a beard
And every kind of creature as far
as the eye could see
Verse 2
F
This old guy was the boss he said "I won't
tell you no lie
But there's more to this journey
E
Em
than is apparent to the eye"
Am
He said he'd heard God's
message on the radio
It was going to rain forever
and he'd told him to go
Em
Am
F
"I'll protect you all don't worry
I'll be father to you all
I'll save two of every animal,
E
Em
D
no matter how small
F
But I'll need some assistants
Em
Esus4
to look after the zoo
Dsus4
Eb
I can't see nobody better so
A
Dsus4
you'll just have to do"
C
F
I said, "Just tell me something before it's
Em
too late and we're gone
Dsus4
D
F
I mean just how safe is this boat
Am
we'll be on?"
Verse 3
Am
"It's Rock steady, Rock steady
Rock steady, Rock steady
Rock steady, Rock steady
Rock steady, Rock steady"
Verse 4
Am
It rained for forty days and forty
long nights
I'd never seen rain like it and
it looked like our old friend
Was being proved right
We had no time to worry though
there was just too much to do
Between the signified monkey
and the kangaroo
F
We had to wash all the animals we had to
feed them too
We were merely human slaves
E
in a big floating zoo
D
Am
She said,
"Hey baby I don't mean to be flip
But it seems this old man
is on some power trip"
F
I said, "No,
no sugar you must be wrong
I mean look at the size of this
Esus4
Em
Am
boat we're on.
F
We're as safe as houses,
Esus4
as safe as mother's milk
Dsus4
Eb
He's as cool as November
F
Dsus4
F
and as smooth as Chin a silk
C
F
He's God's best friend,
Esus4
D
he's got a seat on the board
Dm
F
And life may be tough but we're
Am
sailing with the lord."
Verse 5
Am
D
Am
D
Rock steady, Rock steady
Am
D
Am
Rock steady, Rock steady
Rock steady, Rock steady
Rock steady, Rock steady
Verse 6
Am
Woke up this morning
and something had changed
Like a room in my house
had just been rearranged
F
She said, "It's stopped raining and
I know the guy's kind
But if we stay here much longer
E
Em
I'm gonna lose my mind."
Am
So we said we had a mission
for his favorite dove
To see if there was any mercy
Asus4
from this great God above
Am
F
So to find dry land,
away the white bird flew
We didn't need no country
Em
just a rock would do
F
When the dove came back
Esus4
to us he threw down a twig
Em
Dsus4
Eb
It was manna from heaven and
F
Dsus4
C
meant we could blow this gig
F
"But the rock's too small,
Esus4
" he said, "can't you see?"
Em
F
I said, "It's just perfect for her,
F
it's perfect for me."
Am
Rock steady,
Verse 7

Rock steady, Rock steady
Am
Rock steady, Rock steady
Am
Rock steady, Rock steady
Am
Rock steady,
Am

Am
Am
Rock steady
Rock steady, Rock steady

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.”
