  • Verse 1
    Leave 
    the waves 
    of Galveston 

    but 
    only 
    if you 
    can 

    'Cause 
    you've been 
    hit 
    behind 
    the 
    sea
    wall, 

    gently 
    folded 
    in 
    the sand 

    Papa 
    left 
    you 
    for 
    Heaven 
    after 
    your 

    mama 
    lost 
    her 
    song 

    And though 
    your baby 
    left 
    you for 
    Houston, 

    no 
    one stays 
    there very 
    long 

    Verse 2

    There's 
    graveyard 
    by 
    the 
    pizza 
    parlor, 

    gate 
    that 
    only 
    closes 

    Snowbirds 
    fly 
    away 
    like 
    secrets 

    no 
    one 
    really 
    wants 
    to 
    know 

    The 
    climbing 
    moon's 
    always 
    shining 

    on the 
    kind 
    of shells 
    you 
    keep 

    The 
    broken 
    horse 
    tied 
    to 
    the 
    wa
    ter 

    tower's 
    running 
    in his sleep 

    Verse 3
    It's 
    too 
    bad 
    that 
    you 
    ain't 
    got 

    soft 
    place 
    to 
    fall 

    It's 
    too 
    bad 
    Texas 
    leans 
    to 

    the 
    least 
    of 
    us 
    all 

    And 
    says, 
    "If 
    you can 
    make 
    the 
    music 

    then you 
    can 
    have 
    the 
    dance 

    If you 
    can 
    shoot 
    the 
    pistol 
    then you 
    can 
    wear 

    Interlude 1
    the 
    pants" 



    Verse 4
    So leave 
    the waves 
    of 
    Galveston 

    but 
    only 
    if 
    you 
    can 

    'Cause 
    it's the 
    only 
    place 
    the 
    Lone 

    Star 
    kind 
    have 
    offered 
    you 
    hand 

    Your 
    baby 
    left 
    you 
    nothing 
    but 

    a dog 
    she left 
    for 
    dead 

    You 
    never 
    knew 
    you 
    were 
    burden 

    till 
    it 
    hit 
    you 
    on the 
    head 

    It's 
    too 
    bad 
    that 
    you 
    ain't 
    got 

    soft 
    place 
    to 
    fall 

    It's 
    too 
    bad 
    Texas 
    leans 
    to 
    the 

    least 
    in us 
    all 

    And says, 
    "If you 
    can 
    make 
    the 
    music 

    then 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.
