    Strollin' 
    in the 
    evening 

    when the 
    moon's 
    hangin' 
    low 

    Just 
    walkin', 
    talkin', 
    baby, 

    cause 
    I miss 
    you 
    so 

    When 
    twilight 
    kisses 
    this 
    evening, 

    too 
    I 
    miss 
    you, 

    in 
    the 
    shadows 
    of 
    the old 
    bayou 

    My 
    thoughts 
    keep 
    haunting 

    the 
    memories 
    of 
    you 

    Can't 
    eat, 
    sleep, 

    don't know 
    what 
    I'm 
    to 
    do 

    My 
    heart keeps 
    a 
    -callin', 
    call
    in' 
    for 
    you 

    I 
    need 
    you, baby, 

    in 
    the 
    shadows 
    of 
    the old 
    bayou 

    Now 
    when 
    shadows 
    fall 
    on 
    the bayou 

    And 
    whippoorwills 
    call 
    through 
    the 
    night 

    The 
    per
    fume 
    of 
    the sweet 
    magno
    lia 

    When 
    I'm 
    holding 
    you 
    oh 
    so tight 

    I'm 
    just 
    a -dreamin' 

    and 
    a 
    -schemin', 

    just a 
    -plannin', 
    my 
    dear 

    Just 
    thinkin', 
    wishin', 
    darling, 

    you 
    were 
    here 

    For 
    my heart, 
    misses, 
    it 
    mis
    ses 
    sweetly 
    you 

    I 
    am 
    so 
    lonesome 

    in the 
    shadows 
    of 
    the old 
    bayou 

    Now 
    when 
    shadows 
    fall 
    on 
    the bayou 

    And 
    whippoorwills 
    call 
    through 
    the 
    night 

    The 
    per
    fume 
    of 
    the sweet 
    magno
    lia 

    When 
    I'm 
    holding 
    you, 
    oh, 
    so tight 

    I'm 
    just 
    a 
    -dreamin' 

    and 
    a 
    -s
    chemin' 

    Just a 
    -plannin', 
    my 
    dear 

    Just 
    thinkin', 
    wishin', 
    darling 

    You 
    were 
    here 
    for 
    my heart, 
    it misses 

    It 
    mis
    ses 
    sweet 
    you 

    I 
    am 
    so 
    lonesome 

    in the 
    shadows 
    of 
    the old

      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 🙂

      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.
