    Verse 1
    The man 
    in the 
    bed 
    isn't 
    me 

    Now I 
    slipped 
    out 
    the 
    door 

    and 
    I'm 
    runnin' 
    free 

    Young 
    and 
    wild 
    like 
    I'll 
    always 
    be 

    But the 
    man 
    in the 
    bed 
    isn't 
    me 

    Verse 2
    And these 
    tremblin' 
    hands, 

    they're not 
    mine 

    Now 
    my 
    hands 
    are strong 

    and steady 
    all 
    the time 

    They can 
    swing 
    sledge 
    hammer 

    or soothe 
    baby 
    that's 
    cryin' 

    These 
    trembling 
    hands, 

    they're 
    not 
    mine 

    Verse 3
    Now the 
    nurse 
    over 
    there 

    does
    n't 
    know 

    That 
    ain't some 
    helpless 

    old 
    so- 
    and- 
    so 

    I could have 
    broken 
    her heart 

    not that 
    long 
    ago 

    Now the 
    nurse 
    over 
    there 

    does
    n't 
    know 

    Verse 4
    That the 
    man 
    in the 
    bed 

    isn't 
    me 

    'Cause I 
    slipped 
    out 
    the 
    door 

    and 
    I'm 
    runnin' 
    free 

    Young 
    and wild 
    like 
    I'll 
    always 
    be 

    The 
    man 
    in the 
    bed 
    isn't 
    me 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 5
    I'm the 
    man 
    I've al
    ways 
    been 

    I'm the 
    kid 
    who rode 
    the rails 

    through the 
    Great 
    Depres
    sion 

    I fought 
    in 
    the 
    big 
    war 
    and 

    marched 
    for 
    the 
    Uni
    on 

    I'm the 
    man 
    I've 
    al
    ways 
    been 

    Verse 6
    So 
    don't believe 
    what the 

    doctors 
    say 

    They're just 
    makin' 
    things 

    up 
    so 
    they 
    can get 
    paid 

    Yeah, 
    and 
    it ain't 
    me 
    they're 

    talkin' 
    about 
    anyway 

    So 
    don't believe 
    what the 

    doctors 
    say 

    Verse 7
    'Cause the 
    man 
    in the 

    bed 
    isn't 
    me 

    Well I 
    slipped 
    out 
    the 
    door 

    and I'm 
    finally 
    free 

    Young 
    and 
    wild 
    like 
    I'll 
    always 
    be 

    No the 
    man 
    in the 
    bed 
    isn't 
    me 

    No the 
    man 
    in the 
    bed 
    is
    n't 
    me 

    No 
    the 
    man 
    in the 
    bed 
    isn't 

    me

    • 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.
