    Verse 1
    Levon 
    wears 
    his 
    war

    like 
    a 
    crown 

    He 
    calls 
    his 
    child 
    Jesus 

    'Cause 
    he 
    likes 
    the 
    name 

    And 
    he 
    sends 
    him 

    to 
    the

    school 
    in 
    town 

    Verse 2
    Levon, 
    Levon 
    likes 
    his

    they

    Spend

    He 
    was 
    born 
    a 
    pauper 

    To 
    a 
    pawn 
    on 
    a 
    Christmas 
    day 

    When 
    the

    York 
    Times 
    said 
    God 
    is 
    dead 

    and

    be 
    a 
    good 
    man 

    And

    shall 
    be 
    Levon 

    In 
    tradition 
    with 
    the 
    family 
    plan 

    And 
    he 
    shall 
    be 
    Levon 

    And 
    he 
    shall 
    be 
    a 
    good 
    man 

    He 
    shall 
    be

    family 
    business 
    thrives 

    Jesus 
    blows 
    up

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.
