Verse 1
D

Mama said, you lazy boy,

why don't you get yourself a job?

You can't go on living like this,
Abb
D
Abb

you know you upset your pa.

Can't you hear how the

neighbors talk?
Em
A

You're making me laugh and stop blabbing,
D

playing on your guitar.
Abb

Look at your foolish boy
A
D

All you wanna do is lay around

And listen to your pocket radio

Wander over to the

Jennings' house

And play so loud they say

you shake the floor
Abb

And every night you're out till four or five
Em

Oh, well, you're gonna send
A

me slowly out of my mind
D

Playing on the guitar for

such a foolish game
Abb

Yeah, na -na -na -na -na -n a
D

Woppa -boppa -boppa -me

Papa works from dawn to dusk, oh,

and every night his back aches worse

Mama, she takes him washing, too,

but most of what she makes goes to the church
Abb

And if I ask them why they work that way, yeah,
Em
A

they look at me as if I've gone insane
D

Playing on the guitar,

you turn your fingers green

If I put fourteen new albums out and

say a sixth sub made the charts
Abb
D

My mom would call me on

Sunday night
Abb

She'd ask me if I finally got a job

Where did she go wrong

I've heard her so
E

Won't you pray to
A

God to save me from my fate
D

Of playin' on the guitar

Oh, rock me now

Da -da -da -da -da -da

Bum -ba -dum -dum -dum
Abb
D
Abb
D

-dum -dum


I guess a man is supposed to work himself

Until he drops in a broken heap

And for his live work he gets a wasp
Abb
D

A milky handshake from

Mr.

Cheap
Abb

The song in church on
Em

Sunday's fine, but never lose your head
A
D

and waste your life playing on a guitar.
Outro 1

Hit it big for my boys, yeah!
D

  • 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.
