  • Verse 1
    And so 
    once 
    again 

    My 
    dear 
    Johnny, my dear 
    friend 

    And so 
    once again, 

    you 
    are 
    fightin' 
    us all 

    And when I ask you why 

    You raise 
    your sticks 
    and 
    cry, 
    and I fall 

    Oh, my 
    friend 

    How 
    did 
    you 
    come 

    To trade 
    the fiddle 
    for 
    the drum 

    You say 
    have 
    Verse 2
    turned 

    Like the 
    enemies 
    you've earned 

    But I 
    can remember 

    All 
    the 
    good thing
    s you are 

    And 
    so I ask 
    you, please 

    Can I help 
    you find 
    the peace 

    and 
    the 
    star 

    Oh, my friend 

    What 
    time 
    is this 

    To 
    trade 
    the 
    handshake 
    for 
    the fist 

    And 
    so once 
    Verse 3
    again 

    Oh, 
    America 
    my 
    friend 

    And 
    so 
    once again 

    You are fighting 
    us all 

    And when 
    we 
    ask you why 

    You 
    raise 
    your 
    stick
    s and 

    cry and 
    we 
    fall 

    Oh, my friend 

    How 
    did 
    you 
    come 

    To trade 
    the fiddle 
    for 
    the 
    drum 

    You 
    say we 
    have turned 
    Like the 
    en
    emies 
    Verse 4

    you've earned 

    But 
    we can remember

    All 
    the good things 
    you are 

    And so 
    we ask 
    you please 

    Can we help 
    you 
    find 
    the 

    peace 
    an
    d the star 

    Oh, my 
    friend 

    We 
    have all 
    come 

    To fear 
    the beating 
    of 
    your 
    drum

    • 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.
