    Verse 1
    It’s 
    been a long 
    day, 

    since 
    woke 
    up 

    Spilled 
    the 
    Allsups coffee 

    in 
    my 
    pickup 
    truck 

    Was 
    headed 
    to work, 
    when 
    on 
    my 
    drive 

    got 
    a ticket 
    going 
    60 in 
    55 

    Clocked 
    in 
    for 
    job, 

    that 
    can’t stand 

    I’m on 
    the 
    verge 
    of 
    quitting 

    or 
    getting 
    canned 

    I’ll be 
    so 
    damn 
    glad 
    when 

    this 
    day 
    is 
    through 

    When 
    get 
    home 
    know 

    just 
    what 
    I’ll do 

    Verse 2
    Go grab 
    a cup 

    Rim 
    it with salt 

    Pull down 
    the vodka 

    And pour 
    in a shot 

    Pop 
    top 
    of Topo 
    Chico 

    Only 
    one thing 
    left 
    to put 
    in 

    Yeah, 
    when life 
    gives 
    you lemons 

    Make 
    you a Chilton 


    Verse 3
    All 
    of your worry 
    and all 
    of your trouble 
    will 
    be 
    gone 
    after one, 

    so 
    just 
    make 
    it double 

    That's when 
    it hit 
    will ya, 
    this revelation 

    This 
    drink 
    might 
    be 

    man’s finest 
    creation 

    When 
    your 
    heart 
    is aching 

    Or the 
    sun 
    is baking 

    Or the 
    tax 
    man 
    comes 
    once 

    more for 
    the 
    taking… 

    Verse 4
    When 
    it’s quitting 
    time 

    You’re feeling 
    thirsty 


    It’s 5 o’clock somewhere 

    or 
    maybe 
    10:30 

    Verse 5
    Go grab 
    a cup 
    Rim 
    it with salt 


    Pull down 
    the vodka 

    Pour 
    in a shot 
    (or two, 
    or 
    three) 

    Pop a 
    top 
    of Topo 
    Chico 

    Only 
    one thing 
    left to 
    put 
    in 

    Yeah, 
    when life 
    gives 
    you lemon

    Interlude 1
    Make 
    you a Chilton 



    Verse 6
    Now 
    here’s what you do 

    You keep 
    it simple, 
    stupid 

    You just follow 
    the instructions 

    Get a cup 
    or a glass 
    and 
    some ice 
    cubes, 

    pour in 
    a little 
    Topo 
    Chico, 
    add 
    salt 

    And 
    3 fingers 
    of vodka 

    Texan, 
    Russian, 

    well 
    maybe not 
    Russian 

    But you get the 
    point 

    Verse 7
    Now 
    most importantly 

    grab some lemons 

    Squeeze 
    half 
    a lemon, 
    squeeze 
    a whole 
    lemon 

    Hell go 
    crazy squeeze 
    two 
    whole lemons 

    Mix 
    it all up 
    and enjoy 

    Verse 8
    So 
    when 
    you’re burned 
    out on beer 

    The 
    whiskey 
    ain’t working 

    The 
    wine 
    is fine 

    But 
    it just 
    leaves 
    you hurting 

    When 
    you’re tired 
    of tequila 

    All 
    out of rum 

    I’ll
    tell u 
    what 
    we do 

    where 
    come 
    from 

    Verse 9
    Grab 
    you a cup 

    Rim 
    it with salt 

    Pull 
    down the vodka, 

    Pour 
    in a shot 
    (or two, or 
    three, 
    or 
    four) 

    Pop a 
    top 
    of Topo 
    Chico 

    Only 
    one 
    thing 
    left to 
    put 
    in 

    When 
    life gives 
    you lemon

    Make 
    you a Chilton 

    Yeah 
    when 
    Verse 10
    life gives 
    you lemons 

    Make 
    you a Chilton

    • 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.
