    Verse 1
    So 
    she 
    wakes 
    up 

    In 
    time 
    to 
    brake 
    down 

    She 
    left 
    note 
    up 
    on 
    the 
    dresser 

    And 
    she's 
    right 
    on 
    time 

    You 
    don't 
    know 
    anything, 

    right 
    or 
    wrong 

    said 
    know-ow-ow-ow, 

    and 
    she 
    said 
    so-o-o-o 

    want 
    to 
    panic 
    but 
    I've 
    had 
    it 
    so 
    go-o-o-o 

    You 
    don't 
    owe 
    anything 

    to 
    any
    one 

    Pre-chorus 1
    But 
    don't 
    take 
    your 
    life 

    Cause 
    it's 
    all 
    that 
    you've 
    got 

    You'd 
    be 
    better 
    off 
    just 
    up 
    and 
    leaving 

    If 
    you 
    don't 
    think 
    they 
    will 
    stop 

    Chorus 1
    And 
    when 
    you 
    wake 
    up 

    Everything 
    is 
    gonna 
    be 
    fine 

    guarantee 
    that 
    you 
    wake 
    in 
    better 
    place, 

    and 
    in 
    better 
    time 

    So 
    you're 
    tired 
    of 
    living 

    You 
    feel 
    like 
    you 
    might 
    give 
    in, 

    well 
    don't 
    It's 
    not 
    your 

    Interlude 1
    (time) 




    Verse 2
    Flipping 
    through 
    the 
    paper 
    to
    day 

    Looking 
    for 
    specific 
    page 

    Don't 
    want 
    to 
    find 
    her 
    full 
    name 

    followed 
    by 
    dates 

    Cause 
    when 
    left 
    a
    lone 

    she 
    made 
    sound 
    like 
    moan 

    You're 
    known 
    by 
    everyone 

    for 
    everything 
    you've 
    done 

    Fuck 
    buying 
    flowers 
    for 
    grave, 

    I'd 
    rather 
    buy 
    you 
    one 
    way 

    non-stop 
    to 
    any
    where 

    Find 
    any
    one, 
    do 
    any
    thing, 

    forget 
    and 
    start 
    a
    gain, 
    love 

    She 
    said 
    she 
    won't 
    go 

    Chorus 2
    It 
    hurts 
    too 
    much, 
    to 
    stand 
    by 

    You've 
    got 
    to 
    stop 
    and 
    draw 
    line 

    Everyone 
    here 
    has 
    to 
    choose 
    side 
    tonight 

    The 
    moment 
    of 
    truth 
    is 
    haunting 
    you 

    Don't 
    forget 
    your 
    family 

    re
    gardless 
    of 
    what 
    you 
    choose 
    to 
    do 

    You 
    can't 
    decide, 
    and 
    they're 
    all 
    screaming 

    "why 
    won't 
    you?" 

    I'll 
    start 
    the 
    engine, 

    but 
    can't 
    take 
    this 
    ride 
    for 
    you 

    I'll 
    draw 
    your 
    bath 
    and 
    I'll 
    load 
    your 
    gun 

    But 
    hope 
    so 
    bad 
    that 
    you'll 
    bathe 
    and 
    hunt

    • 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.
