  • Verse 1
    Why 
    do 
    have 
    to 
    play 

    hot 
    mu
    sic? 

    That's 
    really 
    not 
    mu
    sic. 

    Why 
    do 
    they 
    make 
    me 
    take 
    part 
    in 
    it 

    when 
    I've 
    no 
    part 
    in 
    it? 

    Give 
    me 

    De
    bussy, 
    don't 
    know 

    what 
    you 
    see 
    in 
    jazz 

    In 
    spite 
    of 
    all 
    the 
    rhythm 
    it 
    has 

    Can
    't 
    you 
    get 
    someone 
    like 

    Yuba 
    to 
    swing 
    on 
    his 
    tuba 

    Le 

    Bestie 

    La 

    Juba 
    to 
    me 

    may 
    be 
    so 
    -so, 
    no 
    great 
    virtu
    oso, 

    but 
    don't 
    want 
    to 
    play 
    hot 
    music, 
    please 
    let 
    me 
    be. 

    wish 
    that 
    could 
    play 
    like 

    José 

    Derby 

    In
    stead 
    of 
    blowing 
    notes 
    in

    to 
    derby 

    Someone 
    who 
    knows 
    odd 

    takes 
    something 
    from 

    Mozart 
    to 
    sing 
    in
    stead 
    of 
    swing. 





    Oh 


    You

    • 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.
