This is a story about a friend of mine.

This friend of mine was
having a real hard time.
G
C

This friend of mine was a baseball.
Well, he grew tired of getting hit with a bat.
You

can't blame him at all for
being tired of that.
G
C
This friend of mine, he really needed
G
Well, he looked around
for something to do
A
He looked around for something new
C
G
But no ideas came into his head
I suggested he look for work
A
As a heart surgeon or a checkout clerk
G
C
But he became withdrawn
and he laid around
G
in bed
D
That's when it came to him,
C
an incredible plan
D
C
He said, I'll never get hit with a bat again
Bm
He said, I'm gonna roll around,
D
Bm
I'm gonna roll around
Em
Bm
D
G
I'm gonna roll around the world
Well, he rode east from the
Pacific
A
With no destination in specific
C
He rode through the
G
Rockies and through the plains
Well, he rode straight through
North
A
Dakota and through the woods of
Minnesota
C
He could feel that blood
G
pumping in his veins
Well, he was tied to the cork
A
when he finally reached
New
York
C
He's a little tired of rolling, he said,
G
I think I better give up bowling
He was tired of the spinning and
the wheels and the honks
A
When he finally turned into the
Bronx
C
He saw a
Yankee
Stadium and something
G
just called his name
D
Well, that's when it came to him
C
An incredible plan
D
He said, I need to get hit
C
With a bat again

Bm
D
G
I've rolled around the world
So he jumped down from the stands
A
and right into the pitcher's hands
G
C
An d the bat hit my friend
G
and he went flying
Well there was nothing more
fun in this whole
world
A
Than to be hit with a bat after being hurled
G
C
G
By a pitcher who knows just how to throw
C
G
An d then suddenly in deep right field
A
I stood up and became revealed

And using a popcorn box as a mitt -like shield
G
I caught my friend and took him home
One, two, three
D
That's when it came to him
C
He couldn't finally understand
D
He didn't have to roam
C
Around the world again
Bm
D
He was happy to
Bm
Em
So happy to
Bm
D
G
He was happy to be home
My friend, he liked when I
shined up his little head
Little white, well, little white ball
Looked dirty from the soil on that
f***in' head of ours
We talked a little bit about
philosophy
Cassidous,
Plato,
Aristotle, he knew them all
For a cork brain he wasn't too slow on
the draw if you know what I mean
And that bat, that didn't hit him too hard,
he had all those rubber binders inside.
He was a good ball, best ball I ever had.
One time he wanted to be a softball, I said,
though, you look like a swollen baseball.
He got rid of that idea.
He liked
Juice
Newton, I don't know why.
I used to play him a lot of
Juice
C
G
Newton in the morning.
Rock and roll is here to stay
Rock and roll will never die
Rock and roll is here to stay
Rock to tell the world, yes indeed it do
Outro 1
Ooh, I can't take it, ooh, I can't take it
G

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
