  • Verse 1
    Sylvia 
    was 
    workin' 
    as 

    a waitress 
    in 
    Beaumont 

    She said 
    I'm 
    movin' 
    away, 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    get 
    what 
    want 

    I'm 
    tired 
    of 
    these small-town 
    boys 
    boys 

    that 
    don't 
    move 
    fast 
    enough 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    find 
    me 
    one 
    who 
    wears 
    a leather 

    jacket 
    and 
    likes 
    his 
    livin' 
    rough 

    Verse 2

    So 
    she 
    saved 
    her 
    tips 
    and 
    overtime 

    and 
    bought 
    an 
    old 
    rusty 
    car 

    She sold 
    most 
    everything 
    she 
    had 

    to make 
    brand 
    new 
    start 

    She said 
    won't 
    be 
    needing 
    these 

    silly 
    dresses 
    and 
    nylon 
    hose 

    'Cause 
    when 
    get 
    to 
    where 
    I'm 
    goin' 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    buy 
    me 
    all 
    new 
    clothes 

    Verse 3

    The night's 
    too 
    long, 

    It 
    just 
    drags 
    on 
    and 
    on 

    And 
    then 
    there's 
    never 
    enough, 

    That's 
    when 
    the sun 

    starts 
    comin' 
    up 

    Don't 
    let 
    go 
    of 
    her 
    hand, 

    You 
    just 
    might 
    be 
    the right 
    man 

    She 
    loves 
    the 
    night, 

    She 
    loves 
    the night 

    She 
    doesn't 
    want 
    the 
    night, 

    don't 
    want 
    it 
    to 
    end 

    Don't 
    want 
    it 
    to 
    end. 

    Verse 4
    She 
    works 
    in 
    an 
    office 
    now 
    and 

    she 
    guesses 
    the 
    pays 
    all 
    right 

    She 
    can 
    buy 
    a few 
    new 
    things 
    to 

    wear 
    and still 
    go 
    out 
    at 
    night 

    And 
    as soon 
    as 
    she 
    gets 
    home 
    from 
    work 
    she 

    wants 
    to 
    be 
    out 
    with 
    the 
    crowd 

    Where she 
    can 
    dance 
    and 
    toss 
    her 

    hair 
    back 
    and 
    laugh 
    out 
    loud 

    Verse 5

    Well 
    the music's 
    playin' 

    fast 
    and 
    they 
    just 
    met 

    He 
    presses 
    up 
    against 
    her 
    and 

    his shirt's 
    all 
    soaked 
    with 
    sweat 

    And 
    with 
    her 
    back 
    against 
    the 
    bar 

    she 
    can 
    listen 
    to 
    the 
    band 

    And 
    she's 
    holdin' 
    Corona 
    and 
    it's 

    cold 
    against 
    her 
    hand 

    Verse 6
    The night's 
    too 
    long, 

    It 
    just 
    drags 
    on 
    and 
    on 

    And 
    then 
    there's 
    never 
    enough, 

    That's 
    when 
    the sun 

    starts 
    comin' 
    up 

    Don't 
    let 
    go 
    of 
    her 
    hand, 

    You 
    just 
    might 
    be 
    the 
    right 
    man 

    She 
    loves 
    the 
    night, 
    She 
    loves 
    the 
    night 

    She 
    doesn't 
    want 
    the 
    night, 

    don't 
    want 
    it 
    to 
    end 

    Don't 
    want 
    it 
    to 
    end.

    • 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.
