    Verse 1
    Tak
    ing 
    islands 
    in 
    Africa 

    Watch 
    the slow 
    boat 
    hit 

    and 
    run 


    Verse 2
    Out
    side 
    there's 
    world 
    waiting 

    I'll 
    take 
    it 
    all 
    by 
    storm 

    And 
    when 
    the 
    sun
    set 

    finds 
    me 

    I'm coming 
    home 

    Verse 3
    Taking 
    islands 
    in 
    Africa 

    Watch 
    the slow 
    boat 
    hit 

    and 
    run 

    Verse 4
    Every 
    day 
    the 
    sun 
    beats 
    down 

    pull away 
    from 
    shore 

    The 
    wind 
    blows 
    hard 
    into 
    my 

    sails 

    Now 
    know 
    I'm 
    out 
    of 
    touch 

    And 
    times 
    they 
    could 
    get 

    tough 

    But I'll 
    move 
    on 
    so 
    how 
    could 
    I fail?

    The day
    light

    and 
    gone 

    With 
    you 
    beside 
    me 
    we 
    can 
    run

    • 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.
