    Verse 1
    I 
    was 
    born 
    in 
    Saginaw 
    Michigan 

    I 
    grew 
    up 
    in 
    a 
    house 
    on 
    Saginaw 
    Bay 

    My 
    dad 
    was 
    a poor 
    hard 
    working 

    Saginaw 
    fisherman 

    Too 
    many 
    times 
    he 
    came 

    home 
    with 
    too 
    little 
    pay 

    Verse 2

    I 
    loved 
    a girl 
    in 
    Saginaw 
    Michigan 

    The 
    daughter 
    of 
    a 
    wealthy, 
    wealthy 
    man 

    But 
    he 
    called 
    me 
    that 
    son 
    of 

    a Saginaw 
    fisherman 

    And 
    not 
    good 
    enough 
    to claim 

    his 
    daughter's 
    hand 

    Verse 3
    Now 
    I'm 
    up 
    here 
    in 
    Alaska 

    looking 
    around 
    for 
    gold 

    Like 
    a crazy 
    fool 
    I'm 
    a 
    digging 

    in 
    this 
    frozen 
    ground 
    so 
    cold 

    But 
    with 
    each 
    new 
    day 
    I 
    pray 

    I'll 
    strike 
    it 
    rich 
    and 
    then 

    I'll 
    go 
    back 
    home 
    and 
    claim 

    my 
    love 
    in 
    Saginaw 
    Michigan 

    Verse 4
    I 
    wrote 
    my 
    love 
    in 
    Saginaw 
    Michigan 

    I 
    said, 
    "Honey 
    I'm 
    a-coming home, 

    home, 
    please 
    wait 
    for 
    me 

    And 
    you 
    can 
    tell 
    your 
    dad 
    I'm 

    coming 
    home a 
    richer 
    man 

    I've 
    hit 
    the 
    biggest 
    strike 

    in 
    Klondike 
    his
    tory" 

    Verse 5

    Her 
    dad 
    met 
    me 
    in 
    Saginaw 
    Michigan 

    He 
    gave 
    me 
    a great 
    big 
    party 

    with 
    cham
    pagne 

    Then 
    he 
    said, 
    "Son, 

    you 
    wild 
    young 
    ambi
    tious 
    man 

    Will 
    you 
    sell 
    your 
    father-in-law 
    your 

    your 
    your 
    Klondike 
    claim" 

    Verse 6

    Now 
    he's 
    up 
    there 
    in 
    Alaska 

    digging 
    in 
    the 
    cold 
    cold 
    ground 

    The 
    greedy 
    fool 
    is 
    a-looking 
    for 

    for 
    the 
    gold 
    I 
    never 
    found 

    It 
    serves 
    him 
    right 
    and no 
    one 

    here 
    is 
    missing 
    him 

    Least 
    of 
    all 
    the 
    newly 
    weds 

    of Saginaw 
    Michigan 

    We're 
    the happiest 
    man and 
    wife 

    in Saginaw 
    Michigan 

    He's ashamed 
    to show 

    his face in 
    Saginaw 
    Michigan

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
