    Old 
    Henry 

    Hud
    son 
    found a 
    river, 

    a 
    river 
    that touches 
    New 
    York. 

    The 
    rest 
    of the river 
    is a 
    flipper, 

    but 
    it creates 
    lots 
    of 
    talk. 

    Sum
    mertime, 
    that's 
    the time, 

    swooners, 

    you 
    should go rambling 
    about. 

    Now 
    they 
    take trips 

    on 
    rickety 
    ships, 

    but 
    here's 
    what I want 
    to find 
    out
    . 

    Why 
    do they 
    all 
    take 
    the 
    night 

    boat to 
    Albany? 

    That's 
    what's 
    puzzling me. 

    They 
    all 
    claim 
    it's 
    just for 
    the sight, 

    but 
    just the 
    same, 
    they 
    travel 
    at night. 

    I 
    asked 
    a fellow 
    and his 
    cute 
    little pet, 

    how 
    is the 
    water? 

    And 
    he answered, 
    it's 
    wet. 

    So 
    tell me, 
    why 
    do they 
    all take 
    the 

    night boat 
    for 
    Al
    bany, 

    grab 
    the next 
    train 
    for New 
    York? 

    Why 
    do they 
    all 
    take the 

    night boat 
    for Albany? 

    That's 
    what's 
    puzzling 
    me. 

    They 
    all claim 
    it's 

    just 
    for the 
    sights, 

    but 
    just the 
    same, 
    they 
    travel 
    at night. 

    They 
    play the 
    searchlight 
    on the 

    shore when 
    they float. 

    They 
    ought to 
    play the 
    searchlight 

    right on 
    the boat. 

    So 
    tell me, 
    why 
    do they 
    all 
    take the 

    night boat 
    for Albany, 

    And 
    grabbed 
    Verse 2
    an ex
    treme 
    button 
    job 

    That's 
    a very 
    beautiful 
    song, 
    Alan.

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
