    Verse 1
    Wild 
    girl, 

    you 
    must 
    have 
    been 
    a terror 
    when 
    you were 
    young 

    Or your mamma 
    must 
    have 
    let 
    you 
    run, 

    let 
    you 
    run 
    free 

    But it 
    wasn't 
    very 
    nice 
    eating, 

    eat
    ing 
    all 
    that 
    sugar 
    and 
    spice 

    What 
    they want 
    girl 
    to 
    be 

    Verse 2

    And all 
    the things 
    a child 
    learns 
    on their 

    way 
    from 
    hope 
    to 
    here 

    The innocence, 
    the fury, 

    the 
    racism, the rage 
    and 
    fear 

    don't 
    re
    mem
    ber 
    tell 
    me 
    again 

    the part 
    no 
    one 
    wants 
    to 
    hear 

    Verse 3

    Well, 
    that's 
    so 
    many people's 
    story, 

    lot 
    of 
    heartache 
    but 
    not 
    much 
    glory 

    But glory, 
    the truth 
    be 
    told 
    to
    morrow 

    you 
    are 
    twenty 
    one 
    years 
    old 

    I say 
    happy 
    birthday 
    tomorrow 
    to 
    you 

    The 
    only 
    game 
    in 
    town 

    Verse 4

    You 
    can 
    live 
    your 
    life 
    with 
    re
    gret 
    about 

    the 
    things 
    you 
    think 
    you 
    did 
    wrong 

    Or 
    over 
    what 
    someone 

    would 
    not 
    give 

    Or you 
    can be 
    grateful 

    when you 
    open 
    your 
    eyes 

    The story 
    you 
    write, 
    you 
    live 

    Verse 5
    Well, 
    it's 
    hard 
    to 
    be 
    older 
    and poor, 

    don't 
    dig 
    it that 
    much 
    anymore 

    But every
    day 
    of my 
    life 
    I'm so 
    proud, 

    so 
    proud 
    became 
    his 
    wife 

    Because 
    got 
    to raise 
    Charlotte 

    and

    • 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.
