    Verse 1
    The 
    ice 
    cream 
    man, 
    he's 
    hillbilly 
    fan 

    Got 
    78s 
    by 
    Hank 
    Snow 

    Walks 
    down 
    the 
    street 
    shufflin' 
    his 
    feet 

    To 
    rhythm 
    that 
    only 
    he 
    knows 

    Pre-chorus 1
    And 
    I've 
    seen 
    him 
    in 
    so 
    many 
    places 

    saw 
    him 
    the 
    night 
    was 
    born 

    Chorus 1
    In 
    Bourbon 
    Street 
    bar, 

    received 
    my 
    first 
    scar 

    From 
    an 
    old 
    man 
    so 
    tattered 
    and 
    torn 

    And 
    the 
    wino 
    and 
    know 

    the 
    pain 
    of 
    street 
    singin' 

    Like 
    door-to-door 
    salesman 

    knows 
    the 
    pains 
    of 
    bell 
    ringin' 

    Strange 
    situation, 
    wild 
    occupation 

    Livin' 
    my 
    life 
    like 
    song 


    Verse 2
    Coffee 
    is 
    strong 
    at 
    the 
    Café 
    du 
    Monde 

    Donuts 
    are 
    too 
    hot 
    to 
    touch 

    Just 
    like 
    fool, 

    when 
    those 
    sweet 
    goodies 
    cool 

    eat 
    'til 
    eat 
    way 
    too 
    much 

    Pre-chorus 2
    'Cause 
    I'm 
    livin' 
    on 
    things 
    that 
    ex
    cite 
    me 

    Be 
    they 
    pastry 
    or 
    lobster 
    or 
    love 

    Chorus 2
    I'm 
    just 
    tryin' 
    to 
    get 
    by 
    bein' 
    quiet 
    and 
    shy 

    In 
    world 
    full 
    of 
    pushin' 
    and 
    shove 

    And 
    the 
    wino 
    and 
    know 

    the 
    pain 
    of 
    back 
    bustin' 

    Like 
    the 
    farmer 
    knows 
    the 
    pain 

    of 
    his 
    pickup 
    truck 
    rustin' 

    Strange 
    situation, 
    wild 
    occupation 

    Livin' 
    my 
    life 
    like 
    song 


    Bridge 1
    Sweet 
    señorita, 

    won't 
    you 
    please 
    come 
    with 
    me? 

    Back 
    to 
    the 
    island, 
    honey, 

    back 
    to 
    the 
    sea 

    Back 
    to 
    the 
    only 
    place 

    that 
    want 
    to 
    be 

    Outro 1
    And 
    the 
    wino 
    and 
    know 

    the 
    joy 
    of 
    the 
    ocean 

    Like 
    boy 
    knows 
    the 
    joy 

    of 
    his 
    milkshake 
    in 
    motion 

    Strange 
    situation, 
    wild 
    occupation 

    Livin' 
    my 
    life 
    song 

    Yes, 
    it's 
    strange 
    situation, 
    wild 
    occupation 

    Livin'

    life

    • 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.
