    Verse 1
    Well 

    Listen 
    everybody, 

    let 
    me 
    tell 
    you 
    'bout 
    the 
    rock 
    n' 
    roll 

    Ohhh, 
    feel 
    that 
    rhythm 

    and 
    it's 
    really 
    gonna 
    thrill 
    your 
    soul 

    Mmmm, 
    come 
    along 
    with 
    me, 

    to 
    land 
    of 
    make-believe 

    She 
    said, 
    "Whamalamabamalama, 

    rock'n'roll 
    is 
    king." 

    Verse 2
    She 
    loves 
    that 
    rock'n'roll, 

    and 
    she 
    plays 
    it 
    all 
    night 
    long 

    Awww, 
    that's 
    all 
    she 
    ever 
    tells 
    me 

    when 
    call 
    her 
    on 
    the 
    tele
    phone 

    She 
    says, 
    "Feel 
    that 
    jumpin' 
    beat, 

    and 
    a-
    get 
    up 
    on 
    your 
    feet." 

    She

    "Whamalamabamalama, 

    rock'n'roll 
    is 
    king." 

    Bridge 1
    Oh

    play 
    for 
    me 

    Oh

    ring 
    out 

    That's 
    how 
    it's 
    meant 
    to 
    be 

    Verse 3
    Well, 
    it 
    rolls 
    like 
    train 

    that's 
    comin' 
    on 
    down 
    the 
    track 

    She 
    rolled 
    over 
    Beethoven, 

    and 
    she 
    gave 
    Tchaikovsky 
    back 

    Awww, 
    she 
    loves 
    that 
    drivin' 
    beat, 

    she 
    goes 
    dancin' 
    on 
    down 
    the 
    street 

    She 
    said, 
    "Whamalamabamalama, 

    rock'n'roll 
    is 
    king."

    for 
    me 

    Oh 
    let 
    that 
    song 
    ring 
    out 

    That's 
    how 
    it's 
    meant 
    to 
    be 

    Verse 4
    Well, 
    when 
    she 
    comes 
    around 

    and 
    I'm 
    listenin' 
    to 
    the 
    radio 

    She 
    says, 
    "You 
    can't 
    do 
    that, 

    cause 
    all 
    wanna 
    do 
    is 
    rock'n'
    roll 

    "Now 
    here 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    stay, 

    when 
    that 
    music 
    starts 
    to 
    play." 

    She 
    says, 
    "Whamalamabamalama, 

    rock'n'roll 
    is 
    king."

    rock'n'roll 
    is 
    king."

    "Whamalamabamalama, 

    rock'n'roll 
    is 
    king." 

    Oooh, 
    yeah, 
    "Whamalamabamalama, 

    rock'n'roll 
    is 
    king." 

    She 
    said, 
    "Whamalamabamalama, 

    rock'n'roll 
    is 
    king."

      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 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.
