    My

    went 
    away 

    for 
    a month-long 
    trip

    Her 
    and some friends 
    on 

    an 
    ocean-liner 
    ship 

    ship 

    She 
    made 
    a big mistake 
    by 
    leaving 
    me 
    home 

    had to 
    roam 
    so 
    I picked 

    up the 
    phone 

    Dialed Ali 
    up 
    to 
    see what 

    was going 
    down 

    Told 
    him 
    I pick 
    him up 
    so 

    we could 
    drive 
    around 

    Took the 
    Dodge 
    Dart, 
    '74 

    My mother 
    left 
    a yard 
    but 

    I needed 
    one 
    more 

    Shaheed had 
    me covered 
    with 

    a hundred 
    greenbacks 

    So 
    we 
    left Brooklyn 
    and 

    we made 
    big 
    tracks 

    Drove 
    down the 
    Belt, 

    got 
    on the 
    Con
    duit 

    Came 
    to 
    a toll, 

    we paid 
    and went 
    through 
    it 

    Had no 
    destina
    tion, 
    we was 
    on 
    a quest 

    Ali 
    laid 
    in the back 
    so 
    he could 
    get 
    rest 

    Drove 
    down the 
    road for 

    two-days-and-a-half 

    The 
    The The The 
    The 
    sun had 

    just 
    risen 
    on 
    dusty 
    path 

    Just 
    then 
    a figure 
    had 
    caught 
    my 
    eye 

    man with 
    a sombrero 

    who was 
    four 
    feet 
    high 

    I pulled 
    over 
    to ask 
    were 
    we was 
    at 

    His 
    index 
    finger 
    he tipped 
    up 
    his hat 

    "El 
    Segundo," 
    he said, 
    "my 
    name 
    is Pedro 

    If 
    you 
    need directions, 

    I'll tell 
    you pron
    to" 

    Needed 
    civiliza
    tion, 

    some 
    sort 
    of reservation 

    He said 
    a mile 
    south, 

    there's 
    a fast 
    food 
    station 

    Thanks, 
    senor, 
    as 
    I start 
    up the 
    motor 

    Ali 
    said, 
    "Damn, 
    tip, 

    why you 
    drive so 
    far 
    for?" 

    Verse 4
    (Well describe 
    to 
    me what 

    Verse 5
    the wallet 
    looks 
    like) 

    Anyway 
    gas 
    station 
    we passed 

    We 
    got 
    gas 
    and went 
    on to 
    get 
    grub 

    It 
    was 
    a nice 
    little 
    pub 
    in 

    the middle 
    of 
    nowhere 

    Anywhere 
    would 
    have been 
    better 

    I ordered 
    enchiladas 
    and 
    I ate 
    'em 

    Ali 
    had 
    the 
    fruit 
    punch 

    When we 
    fin
    ished 
    we thought 

    for 
    ways 
    to 
    get 
    back 

    I had 
    a hunch 

    Ali 
    said, 
    "Pay 
    for 
    lunch" 

    So 
    I did 
    it 

    Pulled 
    out the 
    wallet 
    and 
    saw 

    this 
    wicked 
    beautiful 
    lady 

    She 
    was 
    a waitress 
    there 

    Put the 
    wallet 
    down 
    and stared 
    and 
    stared 

    To 
    put me 
    back into 
    reality, 

    here's 
    Shaheed 

    "Yo, Tip, 
    man, 

    you got 
    what you 
    need?" 

    I checked 
    for keys 
    and 
    started 
    to step 

    Verse 6
    What do 
    you know, 
    my 
    wallet 
    forget 

    Yo, 
    it was 
    a brown 
    wallet, 

    it had 
    props 
    num
    bers 

    Had my 
    jimmy 
    hats 
    I got 
    to get 
    it man 

    Verse 7
    Lord, 
    have 
    mer
    cy 

    The 
    heat 
    got 
    hotter, 
    Ali 
    stars 
    to curse 
    me 

    I fell 
    bad 
    but 
    he makes 
    me feel 

    badder 

    Chit-chit-chatter, 

    car 
    car

    stars 
    to

    bound 

    Jettin' 
    on down 
    at the

    Three 
    days 
    coming 
    and

    more 
    going 

    We

    He said, 
    "All right, 
    Tip, 

    see 
    you tomorrow" 

    Thinking 
    about 
    the past 

    week, the

    Hands

    Of 
    Shaheed, "we 
    gotta

    when 
    he said 

    "Why?" 
    I said, "we 
    gotta 
    go 

    Cause 
    I left 
    my

      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

      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 🙂

      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 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.

      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.
