    • Verse 1
    Well he 
    bang 
    on 
    this, 

    and bang 
    on 
    that 

    He'd 
    adjust 
    the 
    timing 

    Turn the 
    mag 
    and 
    set 
    the 
    screw 

    Then he'd 
    fix 
    the 
    idle 

    Fi
    nally 
    he'd 
    make 
    'em 
    run 

    As 
    good 
    as 
    they were 

    gonna 
    be 

    And everything 
    you knew 
    you 
    know 

    He 
    taught 
    it 
    all 
    to 
    me 

    And 
    he 
    liked 
    small 
    motors 

    Fly 
    wheels 
    on 
    the side 

    Single 
    piston 
    engines 

    made 
    out 
    of 
    cast 
    iron 

    He 
    liked 
    small 
    motors 

    He'd 
    start 
    'em 
    one 
    by 
    one 

    We'd 
    stand 
    around 
    and 
    we'd 
    listen 

    To 
    them 
    little 
    engines 
    run

    Verse 2
    And 
    he 
    wore 
    railroad 
    coveralls 

    With 
    his name 
    written 
    on 
    the chest 

    We 
    talked 
    Model 
    A's 
    and T's 

    While 
    he 
    rolled 
    cigarettes 

    And 
    we'd 
    get 
    lost 
    inside 
    our 
    thoughts 

    And 
    we'd 
    let 
    those 
    tanks 
    run 
    dry 

    And 
    one 
    by 
    one 
    those 
    little 
    en
    gines 

    Sputter 
    and 
    they'd 
    die 

    And 
    he 
    liked 
    small 
    motors 

    Fly 
    wheels 
    on 
    the side 

    Single 
    piston 
    engines 

    made 
    out 
    of 
    cast

    He

    He'd

    Interlude 1



    Verse 3
    Boys 
    I 
    know 
    you're 
    in 
    your 
    suits 

    And 
    you've 
    come 
    to say 
    goodbye 

    And 
    I can 
    tell 
    you 
    miss 
    him 
    too 

    By 
    the 
    tears 
    in 
    your 
    eyes 

    But I'm 
    asking 
    you 
    a favor 

    By a 
    boy 
    who's 
    brokenhearted 

    Help 
    me 
    get 
    these 
    suckers 
    down 

    Help 
    me 
    get 
    'em 
    star
    ted 

    And 
    he 
    liked 
    small 
    motors 

    Fly 
    wheels 
    on 
    the side 

    Single 
    piston 
    engines 

    made 
    out 
    of 
    cast 
    iron 

    He

    He'd

    We'd

    and 
    we'd

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
