    "This is a... This is a 
    song that I wrote in one 

    of 
    those moments of 

    Deep rage that strike 
    us all. I, 

    I swore a mighty 
    oath that I would write this 
    song and 
    to
    night, 

    I keep that promise. I stood on 
    a stage in Midland, 


    Michigan a year 
    ago this 

    summer and swore 

    I would this song. This 
    is a true story."

    It was bor

    But 
    the tedium

    Verse 6
    Airlines 

    In 
    the firmament 
    of travel 
    you're 
    a star 

    For 
    you treat 
    each piece 
    of baggage 

    like a child 
    of 
    your 
    own 

    When 
    you come 
    across 
    and instrument 

    it drops 
    like 
    stone 

    May 
    you waken 
    every 
    morning 

    with 
    a new 
    broken 
    bone 

    Like 
    you broke 
    the 
    neck 
    on my 
    gui
    tar 

    Well I 
    have been 
    traveling 
    most 
    Verse 7
    of my 

    Life 
    and the 
    thrill 
    is 
    long- 
    time 
    gone 

    And the 
    sight 
    of 
    another 
    DC- 

    10 just 
    fails 
    to 
    turn 
    me on 

    But I 
    feel 
    my 
    heart 
    start 
    pounding 
    when 

    get to 
    the 
    bag
    gage 
    claim 

    And 
    when I 
    see 
    how you've 

    handled 
    my 

    Instrument, 
    the thrill 
    is 
    still 
    the 
    same 

    Thank 
    Verse 8
    you, 
    Republic 
    Airlines 

    For 
    splintering 
    the neck 

    on my gui
    tar 

    My guitar 
    case 
    was so 
    strong that 

    nothing 
    could 
    go 
    through 
    it 

    Way 
    to go 
    Republic; only 

    you 
    could 
    do 
    it 

    Crash 
    bang, 
    Republic 
    Verse 9
    Airlines 

    In the field 
    of demolition 
    you'll 
    go far 

    For 
    you took 
    it as 
    a challenge 

    when I checked 
    in my 
    case 

    And 
    you saw 
    the "fragile" 
    stickers 

    glued 
    all 
    over the 
    place 

    May 
    a team 
    of mad 
    flamingo 

    dancer
    s do 
    to your 
    face 

    What 
    you did 
    to 
    the neck 
    on my 
    gui
    tar 

    There 
    can be 
    no satisfaction 
    greater 
    than 
    Verse 10

    if 

    You 
    should be 
    the next 

    to go 
    the way 
    of Braniff

      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 🙂

      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.
