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.”
Verse 1
Reluctantly crouched at the starting line
Em
Engines pumping and thumping in time
The green light flashes, the flags go up
Churning and burning, they yearn for the cup
Em
They deftly maneuver and muscle for rank
D
Fuel burning fast on an empty tank
Em
Reckless and wild, they pour through the turns
D
Their prowess is potent and secretly stern
Verse 2
Em
As they speed through the finish,
the flags go down
D
The fans get up and they get out of town
Em
The arena is empty except for one man
D
Still driving and striving as fast as he can
Em
The sun has gone down
F#
and the moon has come up
F
Em
And long ago somebody left with the cup
D
A
But he's driving and striving
and hugging the turns
Am/E
And thinking of someone
Em
for whom he still burns
Chorus 1
Em
He's going the distance
He's going for speed
She's all alone
All alone in her time of need
Em
Because he's racing and pacing
and plotting the course
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
Verse 3
Em
No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine
D
He's haunted by something he cannot define
Em
Bowel-shaking earthquakes
of doubt and remorse
D
Assail him, impale him
with monster-truck force
Em
In his mind, he's still driving,
still making the grade
D
She's hoping in time
that her memories will fade
Em
'Cause he's racing and pacing
and plotting the course
D
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
Em
The sun has gone down
F#
and the moon has come up
F
Em
And long ago somebody left with the cup
D
A
But he's striving and driving
and hugging the turns
E
And thinking of someone
Em
for whom he still burns
Chorus 2
Em
'Cause he's going the distance
He's going for speed
She's all alone
All alone in her time of need
Em
Because he's racing and pacing
and plotting the course
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
He's racing and pacing and plotting the course
Em
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse
He's going the distance
He's going for speed
He's going the distance

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

“I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
