    Verse 1
    Oh, 
    the 
    streets 
    of 
    Rome 
    are 
    filled 
    with 
    rubble 

    Ancient 
    foot
    prints 
    are 
    every
    where 

    You 
    can 
    almost 
    think 

    that 
    you're 
    seein' 
    double 

    On 
    a 
    cold, 
    dark 
    night 
    on 
    the 
    Spanish 
    Stairs 

    Chorus 1
    Got 
    to 
    hurry 
    on 
    back 
    to 
    my 
    hotel 
    room 

    Where 
    I 
    got 
    me 
    a 
    date 

    With 
    a 
    pretty 
    little 
    girl 
    from 
    Greece 

    She 
    promised 
    she'd 
    be 
    there 
    with 
    me 

    When 
    I 
    paint 
    my 
    master
    piece 

    Interlude 1

    Oh, 
    the 
    hours 
    we'd 
    Verse 2
    spend 

    inside 
    the 
    Coli
    seum 

    Dodging 
    lions 
    and 
    wastin' 
    time 

    Oh, 
    those 
    mighty 
    kings 
    of 
    the 
    jungle 

    I 
    could 
    hardly 
    stand 
    to 
    see 
    'em 

    Yes, 
    it 
    sure 
    has 
    been 
    a 
    long, 
    hard 
    climb 

    Chorus 2
    Train 
    wheels 
    are 
    runnin' 

    through 
    the 
    back 
    of 
    my 
    memory 

    When 
    I 
    ran 
    on 
    the 
    hilltop 

    Following 
    a 
    pack 
    of 
    wild 
    geese 

    Someday, 
    everything 
    is 
    gonna 
    sound 

    like 
    a 
    rhapsody 

    When 
    I 
    paint 
    my 
    master
    piece 

    Bridge 1

    Sailing 
    'round 
    the 
    world 
    in 
    a 
    dirty 
    gon
    dola 

    Oh, 
    to 
    be 
    back 
    in 
    the 
    land 
    of 
    Coca 
    Cola 

    (Well, 
    I 
    left) 

    Verse 3
    Rome 
    and 
    landed 
    in 
    Brussels 

    On 
    a 
    plane 
    ride 
    so 
    bumpy 
    that 
    I 
    almost 
    cried 

    Clergymen 
    in 
    uniform 

    and 
    young 
    girls 
    pullin' 
    muscles 

    Everyone 
    was 
    there 
    to 
    greet 
    me 

    when 
    I 
    stepped 
    in
    side 

    Chorus 3
    Newspapermen 
    eating 
    candy 

    Had 
    to 
    be 
    held 
    down 
    by 
    big 
    po
    lice 

    But 
    someday, 
    everything 
    is 
    gonna 
    be 
    diff'rent 

    When 
    I 
    paint 
    that 
    master
    piece

      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.
