    Verse 1
    Here's 

    to the 
    beast 
    of burden, 

    here's 
    to the 
    hard 
    hand 

    Here's 
    to the 
    tired 
    traveler 

    and 
    here's 
    to the 
    working 
    man 

    We 
    turned 
    the ground 
    up 
    side 
    by 
    side, 

    found 
    it 
    on 
    the rocks 

    Sailed 
    a 
    million 
    miles 
    of 
    ocean 

    just 
    to 
    die 
    upon 
    the 
    dock
    s 

    Thank
    s

    Mother Mercy, 

    thank

    ing 
    down 

    the 
    line 


    Down 
    to the 
    power 
    of 
    pushers, 

    down 
    to 
    the 
    corporate 
    shark 

    And 
    up 
    to the 
    young 
    political 
    one, 

    the bound 
    to 
    make 
    his mark 

    Kiss 
    the first 
    born 
    babies 

    and 
    watch 
    them feed 
    the claims 

    I 
    know 
    you 
    and 
    you're 
    not the 
    love 

    and 
    I call 
    you 
    by 
    your 
    name 

    Thank
    s 
    to 
    Papa 
    Mercy,

    fancy 
    dancers, 

    cheers 
    to the 
    wide 
    -eyed 
    fools 

    Cheer
    s 
    to the 
    lonesome 
    losers 

    break
    ing 
    all 
    the 
    rules 

    Here's 
    to all 
    believers 

    who 
    are 
    looking 
    for 
    a 
    sign 

    Here's 
    to the 
    midnight 
    bride 

    who recalled 
    before 
    his 
    time 

    Thank

      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.
