    Verse 1
    I hear 
    people 
    talkin' 
    bad, 

    About 
    the way 
    they 
    have 
    to live 

    here 
    in 
    this 
    country 

    Harpin' 
    on 
    the wars 
    we 
    fight 

    And 
    gripin' 
    'bout 
    the way 

    things 
    oughta 
    be 

    And 
    don't 
    mind 
    'em switch

    in' 
    sides 

    And standin' 
    up 
    for things 

    they 
    be
    lieve 
    in 

    But when 
    they're 
    runnin' 
    down 
    our 
    country, 

    man 

    They're 
    walkin' 
    on 

    the fightin' 
    side 
    of 
    me 

    Verse 2
    They're 
    walkin' 
    on 
    the 

    fightin' 
    side 
    of me 

    Runnin' 
    down 
    way of 
    life 

    Our fightin' 
    men 
    have fought 

    and 
    died 
    to keep

    If 
    you don't 
    love 
    it, 
    leave 
    it 

    Let 
    this song 
    that I'm singin' 

    be a 
    warnin' 

    When you're 
    runnin' 
    down 
    our 
    country, 

    hoss 

    You're 
    walkin' 
    on 

    the fightin' 
    side 
    of 
    me 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 3
    read 
    about 
    some 
    squirrelly guy 

    Who 
    claims 
    that 
    he just 

    don't 
    believe 
    in fightin' 

    And I 
    wonder 
    just 
    how 
    long 

    The 
    rest 
    of 
    us 
    can 
    count 
    on 
    bein' 
    free 

    They 
    love 
    our 
    milk 
    and 
    honey 

    But 
    they preach 
    about 
    some 

    other 
    way 
    of 
    livin' 

    But when 
    they're 
    runnin' 
    down 
    our country, 

    man 

    They're 
    walkin' 
    on 

    the fightin' 
    side 
    of 
    me 

    Verse 4
    They're 
    walkin' 
    on 
    the 

    fightin' 
    side 
    of 
    me 

    Runnin' 
    down 
    the way 
    of life 

    Our 
    fightin' 
    men 
    have fought 

    and 
    died 
    to keep 

    If 
    you don't 
    love 
    it, 
    leave 
    it 

    Let 
    this 
    song 
    that I'm 
    singin' 

    be 
    a warn
    in' 

    When 
    you're 
    run
    nin' 
    down 
    our 
    country, 

    man 

    You're walkin' 
    on 
    the 
    fightin' 
    side 
    of 
    me 

    Verse 5
    You're 
    walkin'

    • 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.
