And manage to hold on to her dignity

Right now I ain't thinking

about those starving kids

Or catching some strange disease
G
Am

And little thing, don't worry,
A

that nasty stuff we're saying
Am

Kinda make you feel at ease,

and that's the way on the beat
D
G

You make me slow down
D

when I break into a run
G

That's the way on the beat

And you make people forget

about the things I ain't done
G

That's the way on the beat

Oh, I know we just can't stay here forever

But I'm locked up in some

wild fantasy

No matter what harm it brings
Am

I don't need no woman

telling me how to run my life

But I can stand some advice for real

Those little motions,
A

the touch of your fingers
D

Kind of makes it hard on me

That's the way on the beat

You make me realize graffiti ain't so dumb

You make me compromise

when I'm having too much fun

Somehow you keep on upsetting me

D

I ain't thinking

about no foreclosure

on my mortgage

I don't want no MTV

Anybody talking about

some kind of love shortage

We still don't know what that means

And that's the way it ought to be
D

You made me come down

from my pedestal in the sun

That's the way it ought to be

You made me think about

  • 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.
