    Verse 1
    She has 
    no 
    fear 
    of failure, 

    she's 
    not 
    bent 
    with 
    broken 
    dreams. 

    For 
    the fu
    ture's 
    just 
    be
    ginning 
    when 
    you're 

    always 
    seven
    teen 

    It 
    was 
    nineteen 
    sixty-one 
    when 

    when 
    we went 
    to 
    Washington; 

    She 
    put her 
    arms 
    around 
    me 
    and 
    said, 

    "Camelot's begun." 

    We listened 
    Verse 2
    to 
    his 
    visions 
    of 

    how 
    our 
    land 
    should 
    be; 

    We 
    gave 
    him 
    our 
    hearts 
    and 
    minds 

    to 
    send 
    across 
    the sea. 

    Nine
    teen 
    sixty-three, 

    white 
    white 
    and 
    black 
    upon 
    the 
    land; 

    She brought 
    me 
    to 
    the monuments 

    and made 
    us all 
    join 
    hands. 

    Verse 3
    And scarcely 
    six 
    months 
    later 
    she held 

    me 
    through 
    the night 

    When we 
    heard 
    what 
    had 
    happened 

    in 
    that 
    brutal 
    Dallas 
    light. 

    Oh, 
    she 
    is 
    al
    ways 
    seventeen; 

    She has 
    a dream 
    that she 
    will 
    lend 
    us 

    and 
    a love 
    that we 
    can 
    bor
    row. 

    Verse 4
    There 
    is so 
    much 
    joy 
    in
    side 
    her 
    she will 

    even 
    share 
    her 
    sorrow; 

    She's 
    our 
    past, 
    our present, 

    and 
    our promise 
    of tomor
    row. 

    Oh, 
    truly 
    she's 
    the 
    only 
    hope 
    I've seen, 

    and she 
    is 
    always 
    seventeen. 

    It 
    was 
    nineteen 
    sixty-five 

    and 
    and 
    we 
    were marching 
    once 
    more 

    Verse 5
    From 
    the burning 
    cities 
    again

    st a crazy 
    war. 

    Memphis, 
    L.A. 
    and 
    Chicago 

    we bled 
    through sixty-eight 

    Till 
    Till 
    she took 
    me 
    up to 
    Woodstock 
    saying 

    with 
    love it's 
    not 
    too 
    late. 

    We star
    ted out 
    the seventies 

    living 
    off 
    the land; 

    Verse 6
    She 
    was sow
    ing 
    seeds 
    in Denver 
    trying 

    to make 
    me 
    un
    der
    stand 

    That 
    mankind 
    is woman 

    and 
    woman 
    is 
    man, 

    And 
    un
    til 
    we 
    free 
    each 
    other 
    we 

    can
    not 
    free 
    the land. 

    Oh, she 
    is 
    always 
    seventeen; 

    Verse 7
    She has 
    a dream 
    that she 
    will lend 
    us 

    and a 
    love 
    that we 
    can 
    bor
    row. 

    There 
    is so 
    much 
    joy 
    in
    side 
    her 
    she 

    will 
    even 
    share 
    her 
    sorrow; 

    She's 
    our past, 
    our present, 

    and 
    our promise 
    of 
    tomor
    row. 

    Oh, 
    truly 
    she's 
    the 
    only 
    hope 
    I've seen, 

    and 
    she 
    is 
    always 
    seven
    teen. 


    Verse 8
    Nineteen 
    seventy-two, 

    I'm 
    I'm 
    at 
    the 
    end 
    of 
    my 
    rope, 

    But 
    she 
    was 
    picketing 
    the 

    White 
    House 
    chanting, 

    "The 
    truth's 
    the 
    only 
    hope." 

    In 
    nineteen 
    seventy-five 
    when 
    when 

    the crooked 
    king 
    was 
    gone 

    Verse 9
    She 
    was 
    feeding 
    starving 
    children 

    saying 
    the dream 
    must 
    go 
    on. 

    She 
    is 
    al
    ways 
    seventeen; 

    She has 
    a dream 
    that she 
    will lend 
    us 

    and a 
    love 
    that 
    we can 
    bor
    row. 

    There 
    is so 
    much 
    joy 
    in
    side 
    her 
    she 
    will 

    even 
    share 
    her 
    sorrow; 

    Verse 10
    She's our 
    past, 
    our 
    present, 

    and 
    our 
    promise 
    of 
    tomor
    row. 

    Oh, 
    truly 
    she's 
    the 
    only 
    hope 
    I've 
    seen, 

    and 
    she 
    is 
    always 
    seventeen.

    • 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.
