    Verse 1
    The phone's 
    on 
    the dash, 

    the god
    damned 
    thing 

    It's 
    one 
    of 
    those 
    times 
    when 

    I know 
    it's 
    gonna 
    ring 

    Don't 
    wanna 
    answer 
    but 
    I got 

    no 
    choice 

    There's something 
    bad 
    wrong, 

    I can 
    hear 
    it 
    in 
    your 
    voice

    the matter 
    now?

    The

    It's 
    pouring 
    down 
    rain 
    and 

    there's clothes 
    on 
    the line 

    I don't 
    know 
    what 
    to tell 
    you, 

    don't 
    know what 
    to say 

    How 
    am 
    gonna 
    fix 
    it, 

    I'm 
    a thousand 
    miles 
    away?

    you 
    anywhere 

    Want

    to take 
    you for 
    an 
    airplane

    me 
    to take 
    you to 
    the seaside 

    Sorry, 
    baby, 
    but 
    I can

    • 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.
