    Verse 1
    A 
    tree grows 
    in 
    my back 
    yard 

    It only 
    grows at 
    night 

    Its branches 
    they're 
    all twisted 

    Its leaves 
    are afraid 
    of light 

    They 
    say the blues 
    is just 

    a bad 
    dream 

    They say it 
    lives upside 
    your head 

    But 
    when it's lonely 
    in the morn
    ing 

    You're 
    bound 
    to wish that 

    you was lying 
    dead 

    There's 
    winds 
    out 
    on the ocean 

    They're 
    blowing 
    just as 
    they choose 

    But 
    then winds 
    ain't got no 
    emo
    tion, 

    baby 

    And they don't 
    know the 
    blues 

    They say 
    the 
    blues 
    is just 

    Verse 2
    a bad 
    dream 

    They say it 
    lives upside 
    your head 

    But 
    when it's 
    lonely, 
    lonely 
    in the morning 

    You're 
    bound to wish 
    that you was lying 
    dead 






    My mind 
    is rambling 
    and rambling 

    Just like 
    some rolling 
    stone, no 

    Since 
    that nightmare's 
    come to stay 

    with me, baby 

    My thoughts 
    just don't 
    belong 

    They say 
    the 
    blues 
    is 
    just a bad 
    dream 

    They 
    say it lives 
    upside 
    your 
    head 

    But when 
    they 
    visit 
    you around midnight 

    You're bound 
    to wish that you 

    were lying dead

    • 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.”
