    Verse 1
    came 
    here 
    looking 
    for 

    something 

    couldn't 
    find 
    anywhere 
    else 

    Well, I'm 
    not 
    tryin' 
    to be 
    nobody 

    Just 
    wanna 
    change 
    to be 
    my
    self 

    Verse 2
    I've 
    done 
    a thousand 
    miles 
    of 
    thumbin' 

    Yes, 
    I've worn 
    blisters 
    on my 
    heels 

    Trying 
    to find 
    me 
    something 
    better 

    On 
    the streets 
    of 
    Bakersfield 

    Verse 3

    You 
    don't know 
    me, 
    but you 
    don't 
    like 
    me 

    You say 
    you care 
    less 
    how 
    I feel 

    How 
    many 
    of you 
    that 
    sit 
    and judge 
    me 

    Ever 
    walked 
    the streets 
    of 
    Bakersfield? 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    Spent 
    some time 
    in San 
    Fran
    cisco 

    Spent 
    a night 
    there 
    in 
    the 
    can 

    They 
    threw 
    this drunk 
    man 
    in 
    my jail 
    cell 

    took 
    fifteen 
    dollars 
    from 
    that 
    man 

    Verse 5
    left 
    him 
    my 
    watch 
    and my 
    old 
    house 
    key 

    Don't 
    want 
    folks 
    thinkin' 

    that 
    I'd 
    steal 

    Then I 
    thanked 
    him 
    as 
    he 
    was sleeping 

    And 
    headed 
    out 
    for 

    Bakersfield 

    Verse 6

    You don't 
    know 
    me, 
    but 
    you 
    don't like 
    me 

    You say 
    you care 
    less 
    how 
    I feel 

    How 
    many 
    of you 
    that 
    sit 
    and judge 
    me 

    Ever 
    walked 
    the streets 

    of 
    Bakersfield? 

    Verse 7

    How 
    many 
    of you 
    that 
    sit 
    and judge 
    me 

    Ever 
    walked 
    the streets 

    of 
    Bakersfield?

    • 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.
