    Verse 1
    know 
    it 
    seemed 
    like 

    a good 
    idea 
    at 
    the time. 

    But, 
    darling, 
    knew there 
    was 

    trouble 
    bound 
    to 
    come. 

    Verse 2
    The 
    postman 
    drove 
    Caddy, 

    sunburned 
    green, 

    Rusted 
    out 
    land 
    tug 
    of 
    a car. 

    It 
    seen 
    to 
    race 
    across 
    the ridge 

    trailin 
    clouds 
    of dust 
    and 
    dogs. 

    knew there 
    was 
    trouble 

    bound 
    to come. 

    Verse 3
    Now, 
    I saw 
    the fact. 

    The driver 
    was a 
    dog. 

    The dog 
    had 
    a hat. 

    The 
    hat 
    had 
    a flat. 

    It 
    looked 
    like 
    rat. 

    The 
    rat 
    was 
    on fire. 

    Somehow I 
    knew there 
    was trouble 

    bound 
    to 
    come. 

    Verse 4
    Now, that 
    fire 
    attrac
    ted 
    the 

    eye 
    of 
    neighbor 
    who, 

    Turning 
    away, 

    Shook 
    his head 
    as 
    he 
    was 
    heard 
    to say, 

    don't 
    wan
    na 
    know 
    why. 

    Which 
    confused 
    the pig. 

    That ate 
    the mailbox. 

    That contained 
    the letter 
    that 
    was 
    lost 
    by 

    the post 
    office 
    for 
    40 years. 

    Happenin 
    to 
    have 
    been written 

    by 
    Albert 
    Ein
    stein. 

    Ha! 

    Some
    how 
    knew 
    there 
    was 

    trouble 
    bound 
    to 
    come. 

    Verse 5
    Now, 
    in 
    his 
    declining 
    years 
    he 
    had 
    designed devined a 

    device 
    from 
    com
    mon 
    household 
    items, 

    Which 
    by 
    harnas
    sing hitherto 
    unknown 
    forces 
    in 
    the 

    universe 
    could put 
    a chicken 
    in every 
    pot, 

    And make 
    it so 
    that 
    everyone 
    could 
    live 
    a long 

    long 
    time 
    without 
    any 
    trouble 
    at all. 

    And 
    in the pro
    cess 
    savin 
    mankind 

    from 
    certain 
    self- 
    destruction, 

    And 
    en
    abling 
    him 
    to 
    keep 
    go
    ing 

    more 
    places 
    forever. 

    Mmmm, 
    knew 
    there 
    was 

    trouble 
    bound 
    to 
    come. 

    Now, 
    you 
    Verse 6
    understand, 
    that 
    whether 
    or 
    not 
    this 
    device 
    would 

    ac
    tually 
    work was 
    matter 
    of 
    ab
    solute 
    conjecture, 

    Seeing 
    as how 
    Mr 
    Einstein 
    had 

    buried 
    the 
    only 
    plans, 

    And 
    working 
    model, 

    In 
    a hole 
    in 
    the ground. 

    knew 
    there was 
    trouble 

    bound 
    to 
    come. 

    It had 
    seemed 
    Verse 7
    like 
    good 

    idea 
    at 
    the time, 

    In 
    fact 
    what 
    the 
    let
    ter 
    did 
    say. 

    And 
    would the 
    recipient, 

    Mr Tesla, 

    Please 
    go 
    out 
    and 
    dig 
    it 
    up 
    right 
    away? 

    But 
    not 
    to worry, 

    Cuz 
    even 
    if 
    this self- 
    same 
    letter 
    was 
    to be 
    lost 
    in the 
    post 
    you couldn't 
    miss 
    the two- 
    foot 

    high 
    Martian 
    stand
    ing 
    there 
    who 
    promised 
    to wait 
    and 
    not 
    even 
    budge 
    for 
    40 years, 

    If 
    he had 
    to, 

    But 
    then he 
    really 
    had 
    to get 
    going. 

    And by 
    the 
    way 
    take 
    him a 
    couple 
    apples, 

    Or 
    something, 

    Because he 
    really 
    likes 
    fruit. 

    Sincerely 
    yours, 

    Albert 
    Einstein. 

    Verse 8
    Somehow 
    I knew there 

    was trouble 
    bound to come.

    • 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.
