    Verse 1
    Oh, 
    there's 
    good 
    and 
    bad 
    things 

    about 
    the 
    South, 
    boy 

    Oh, 
    and 
    some 
    leave 
    bitter 
    taste 

    in 
    my 
    mouth, 
    now 

    Yeah, 
    like 
    the 
    black 
    men 
    livin' 
    across 
    the 
    track 

    White 
    men 
    on 
    the 
    other 
    side 
    holdin' 
    them 
    back 

    Way 
    back 
    home, 
    now 

    Verse 2
    Oh, 
    but 
    we 
    won't 
    talk 
    about 
    that 

    'cause 
    it's 
    understood 

    Every
    body 
    sees 
    the 
    bad, 

    but 
    what 
    about 
    the 
    good? 

    Oh, 
    I'd 
    give 
    anything 
    just 
    to 
    smell 
    that 
    scent 

    Of 
    honeysuckle 
    growin' 
    on 
    backyard 
    fence 

    Way 
    back 
    home, 
    now 

    Chorus 1
    Oh, 
    have 
    to 
    say 
    it, 
    y'all 
    (Way 
    back 
    home) 

    Yeah, 
    way 
    back 
    home 

    (Way 
    back...) 
    Yeah, 
    back 
    home, 
    back 
    home 

    I'd 
    love 
    to 
    smell 
    the 
    wetness 

    of 
    grass 
    and 
    trees 

    And 
    see 
    flowers 
    kissed 
    by 
    honey 
    bees 

    Like 
    way 
    back 
    home, 
    now 

    Verse 3
    Oh, 
    but 
    childhood 
    days 
    are 
    dead 
    'n 
    gone 

    Well, 
    but 
    the 
    memories 
    still 
    linger 
    on 

    Oh, 
    have 
    you 
    ever 
    gone 
    swimmin' 

    in 
    muddy 
    creek 

    With 
    nothin' 
    on 
    your 
    body 
    from 
    head 
    to 
    feet? 

    Way 
    back 
    home, 
    yeah 

    Verse 4
    Oh, 
    what 
    happened 
    to 
    the 
    games 

    like 
    hide-and-seek? 

    Yeah, 
    and 
    sneak 
    through 
    the 
    reeds, 

    over 
    near 
    the 
    streams. 

    Well, 
    know 
    some 
    kids 
    still 
    play 
    those 
    games 

    But 
    when 
    they 
    play 
    it 
    just 
    ain't 
    the 
    same 

    Like 
    way 
    back 
    home 

    Chorus 2
    Sad 
    to 
    think 
    it's 
    gone 
    (...back 
    home) 

    Yeah, 
    way 
    back 
    home, 
    way 
    back 
    home 

    (Way 
    back 
    home) 
    Oh 
    yeah 


    Oh, 
    really 
    miss 
    those 
    things 

    that 
    have 
    faded 
    away 

    re
    member 
    them 
    like 
    it 
    was 
    yesterday 

    Now, 
    way 
    back 
    home 

    Solo 1
    (Way

    Verse 5
    Oh, 
    when 
    the  
    Lord 
    decides 
    to 
    take 
    me 
    away 

    Hey, 
    let 
    me 
    rest 
    in 
    the 
    land 

    where 
    used 
    to 
    play 

    Oh, 
    you 
    know 
    miss 

    that 
    passing 
    ice 
    cream 
    truck 

    And 
    the 
    things 
    that 
    were 
    part 

    of 
    my 
    growing 
    up

    back 
    home

    • 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.
