C

Now it's that crazy beat

that moves the body and the feet

I can't believe

because that's where I meet my hate

You can see the jukebox,

it's right by the door

Some beat up chairs

and a shiny hardwood floor
F

The headlights are low
G

and everything's in line
F

You can see the sound dancing
G

from start to finish
C

Now it's that crazy beat

that moves the body and the feet

I can't be late

because that's where I meet my date
G

When the band goes into action on the stand
C

They all shoot to move in

every way they can
F

They be playin' rock and roll
G

and sweet tunes too
F

Swim to twist and fly
G

what you wanna do
C

Now, it's that crazy beat

that moves the body and the feet

I can't be late,

we gon' dance

where I meet my date

Hey, baby, place where I meet my date

Come on, baby,

  • 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.
