    • Verse 1
    "Guten 
    Abend, 

    Herr 
    Beeth
    oven" 

    With these 
    words 
    I've inter
    woven 

    inspiration 
    from 
    moonlight 

    Since 
    you 
    parted 
    much 
    has changed 

    But your 
    melodies 
    re
    main 
    like 

    flamingos 
    in 
    full 
    flight 

    Please 
    for
    give 
    me 
    and be 
    as
    sured 
    Verse 2

    I'm 
    only 
    us
    ing 
    all your 
    chords 
    to 
    illus

    trate 
    that 
    nothing's 
    ever 
    new 

    But it 
    seems 
    these 
    days 

    there's very 
    little 
    left 

    That people 
    have 
    to say 
    as they 
    pay 

    for 
    emperor's 
    new 
    clothes 

    But 
    I re
    fuse 
    to take 
    my 
    hat 
    Verse 3
    to 

    an era 
    near 
    ex
    tinction 

    Without 
    question 
    or 
    complaint 

    The 
    dialo
    g 
    is 
    growing 
    weak

    Some 
    for
    getting 
    how 
    to speak 
    or 
    stand 

    up and 
    show 
    re
    straint 

    They're all 
    sick 
    with 
    common 
    sense, 
    Verse 4

    riddled 
    thick 
    with 
    compla
    cence 

    Where 
    there's 
    nothing 

    left 
    to push 
    against 

    So 
    dear 
    Ludwig, 

    that is 
    why 
    I 
    choose 
    the 
    great 
    gig 
    in the 
    sky 

    Where 
    there are 
    great

    er minds 
    bey
    ond 
    mine 

    Verse 5
    And 
    I'll meet 
    them 
    all, 

    yes, I'll

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
