Intro 1

Verse 1
Em
D
C

Well,

she said,

don't waste your words,

they're just lies

I cried, she was dead

Well, she worked on my face

Until breaking my eyes

Said, what else you got left?
Em

It was then that I got up to leave

But she said, don't forget
D
Dm
F
C

Everybody must

give something back

for something they get

I

I stood there and hummed

Tapped on her drum

I asked her how come

And she buttoned her boot

Straightened her suit

I said, don't get key.
Em

Well, I forced my hand in my pocket,
D

fell in my thumb.
C

That's when I gallantly handed my mother

the last piece of gum.

She threw me outside.

I stood in the dirt

where everyone watched

And after finding out

I'd forgotten my shirt

I went back and knocked
Em

I waited in the hallway when she got in
D

I tried to make sense
C

Out of that picture of you in your wheelchair,

I leaned up against the Jamaican rum

When she did come, I asked her for some

And then she said, no dear,

I said your words aren't clear,

you better spit out your gun.
Em

She screamed and her face got so red,
D

she fell on the floor.
C

When I'm killin',

thought I'd go look through her drawer

And when I was through,

filled up my shoe,

brought it to you

And you, you took me in,

you loved me then,

you never wasted time

And I never took much,

never asked for your crutch,

don't ask for mine
Outro 1

Thank you so much.

  • 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.
