  • Verse 1

    got 
    my 
    first 
    real 
    six-string 

    Bought 
    it 
    at 
    the 
    five-and-dime 

    Played 
    it 
    'til 
    my 
    fingers 
    bled 

    Was 
    the 
    summer 
    of 
    '69 

    Verse 2
    Me 
    and 
    some 
    guys 
    from 
    school 

    Had 
    band 
    and 
    we 
    tried 
    real 
    hard 

    Jimmy 
    quit, 
    Jody 
    got 
    married 

    should've 
    known 
    we'd 
    never 
    get 
    far 

    Pre-chorus 1
    Oh, 
    when 
    look 
    back 
    now 

    The 
    summer 
    seemed 
    to 
    last 
    forever 

    And 
    if 
    had 
    the 
    choice 

    Yeah, 
    I'd 
    always 
    wanna 
    be 
    there 

    Those 
    were 
    the 
    best 
    days 
    of 
    my 

    Interlude 1
    (life) 
    (Hey) 

    Verse 3
    Ain't 
    no 
    use 
    in 
    complainin' 

    When 
    you've 
    got 
    job 
    to 
    do 

    Spent 
    my 
    evenings 
    down 
    at 
    the 
    drive-in 

    And 
    that's 
    when 
    met 
    you, 
    yeah 

    Pre-chorus 2
    Standin' 
    on 
    your 
    mama's 
    porch 

    You 
    told 
    me 
    that 
    you'd 
    wait 
    forever 

    Oh, 
    and 
    when 
    you 
    held 
    my 
    hand 

    knew 
    that 
    it 
    was 
    now 
    or 
    never 

    Those 
    were 
    the 
    best 
    days 
    of 
    my 

    Chorus 1
    (life) 
    Oh, 
    yeah 

    Back in the summer of 
    '6
    9, 
    oh 

    Bridge 1
    Man 
    we 
    were 
    killin' 
    time 

    We 
    were 
    young 
    and 
    restless 

    We 
    needed 
    to 
    unwind 

    guess 
    nothin' 
    can 
    last 
    for
    ever, 

    Interlude 2
    forever, 
    no 

    Yeah 


    Verse 4
    And 
    now 
    the 
    times 
    are 
    changin' 

    Look 
    at 
    everything 
    that's 
    come 
    and 
    gone 

    Sometimes 
    when 
    play 
    that 
    old 
    six-string 

    Think 
    about 
    you, 
    wonder 
    what 
    went 
    wrong 

    Pre-chorus 3
    Standin' 
    on 
    your 
    mama's 
    porch 

    You 
    told 
    me 
    that 
    it'd 
    last 
    forever 

    Oh, 
    and 
    when 
    you 
    held 
    my 
    hand 

    knew 
    that 
    it 
    was 
    now 
    or 
    never 

    Those 
    were 
    the 
    best 
    days 
    of 
    my 

    Chorus 2
    (life) 
    Oh, 
    yeah 

    Back in the summer of 
    '6
    9, 
    oh 

    It was the summer of...

    • 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.
