    Chorus 1
    In 
    the 
    City 
    of 
    Chi
    cago 

    As 
    the 
    evening 
    shadows 
    fall 

    There 
    are 
    people 
    dreaming 

    Of 
    the 
    hills 
    of 
    Done
    gal 

    Verse 1
    Eighteen 
    forty 
    seven 

    Was 
    the 
    year 
    it 
    all 
    be
    gan 

    Deadly 
    pains 
    of 
    hunger 

    Drove 
    million 
    from 
    the 
    land 

    They 
    journeyed 
    not 
    for 
    glory 

    Their 
    motive 
    wasn't 
    greed 

    voyage 
    of 
    sur
    vival 
    a
    cross 
    the 
    stormy 
    sea 

    Chorus 2
    To 
    the 
    City 
    of 
    Chi
    cago 

    As 
    the 
    evening 
    shadows 
    fall 

    There 
    are 
    people 
    dreaming 

    Of 
    the 
    hills 
    of 
    Done
    gal 

    Verse 2
    Some 
    of 
    them 
    knew 
    fortune 

    And 
    some 
    of 
    them 
    knew 
    fame 

    More 
    of 
    them 
    knew 
    hardship 

    And 
    died 
    upon 
    the 
    plain 

    They 
    spread 
    throughout 
    the 
    nation 

    They 
    rode 
    the 
    railroad 
    cars 

    Brought 
    their 
    songs 
    and 
    music 

    to 
    ease 
    their 
    lonely 
    hearts 

    Chorus 3
    To 
    the 
    City 
    of 
    Chi
    cago 

    As 
    the 
    evening 
    shadows 
    fall 

    There 
    are 
    people 
    dreaming 

    Of 
    the 
    hills 
    of 
    Done
    gal

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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

      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.
