Am

Before I start,

like to make sure I'm smart

Gather my composure,

rather my swagger and my culture

Pivot my fitted,
C
F
Am

then be gin to rivet
G
C
Am

with a change of lyric
F

In other words, I reposition how I sit it

Then make you feel it like
Am

I mispronounce belay

On second thought,

I can't make you feel it
F

like you diggin' your own grave

Lest you can kill
Am

Billet,

a knight of the living passed away

Can you dig me? YMCA

I do it for my village,

the pen and his jawn linen
F
Am

The beat is the Beatles,

go together like linen
F
Am

And the people in some fresh linen

and some jawn linens
F
Gm

Fresh out of seagulls,
F
Am

the pen and the needles

Back snatcher, back snatcher

Back something you can't catch

Max, it's sent like a max ratchet
Bb#m

Like a back ratchet
Am

I'm back at ya,

and I pack like cat backwards

Like a hat's backwards, you know,

when the back's backwards

Yeah, like a back catcher,

the law got a long arm

like a back scratcher

But before I leave mine at home,

like a back catcher

I think about my zone,
C
G

where pimps make scratch off
C
Am

the track like a DJ, easy

That's my zone, rappers, it's my deck

And if I catch you set trippin'

with my cassette
F

Sittin' in the zone, rappers,
Am

it's not a threat

Consider Spaniard where I roam,

rappers, where I hone my skills

They wanna send me back home,

the devil is on my heels
F

The writin' is sting
Am

like in the sequences

the police I repeat

We go together like beauty and the beast,
F

writin' is in my veins
Am

The ink is the diesel,

the pen and the needles

It's neat, it's neat, it's it's

Swerve, swerve, mightier than a swerve

I'm a swerve, I am a swerve, swerve
Bb#m
Am

Swerve, swerve, I'm all to my earth

The word is mightier than a swerve

And my serve is tidier than yours

Like year in St. Louis, your whole flow
F

I fear I sank through it
Am

It all became clear

Like a paramedic with an

electric chest kit

Yeah, the gravity of the vocabulary
Em

is the caliber equal to the Ex calibur
Am

Swung with the grace of Agassi

and his amateurs

There, there was a deeper depth,

don't know how I got here

I also had a hole in my flow,

it appears I sank to it

My swing, it couldn't be seen,

I applied some paint to it

The invisible man wrapped in bandages,


in critical

Clear, the script and the score say
F
Am

see the score is Count Basie

We go together like the

original and the sequel
F

This is the end of the trilogy
Am

You're feeling me,

the pen and the needles

Needles, needles

Yo

FNF

Ha, ha, dry brain
F

Needles, what up, baby?
Am

Success, what up, baby?

Drew, what up, pimp?

Shaktan

Ha, ha
Dm
Am

First step, fifteen

  • 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.
