    Hello, 
    it’s been 
    a while 
    Verse 1


    You 
    know, 
    wished 
    ya well 

    I wrote 
    song 
    for you 

    So 
    break 
    the chains 
    an
    d damn 

    the cell 

    You wrote, 

    “LOVE…Love is 
    everywhere!” 

    In the 
    notebook 
    you 
    gave 
    me 

    You made 
    a list 
    of joys 
    for me 

    You put 
    your name 
    first 

    Verse 2

    How 
    is no 
    man 
    an island? 

    Verse 3
    What 
    with 
    Califor
    nia 

    Sliding 
    off 
    the chart 

    Pack 
    your suitcase 
    up 

    Make 
    brand 
    new 
    start 


    California’s sliding 
    off 
    the map 

    Hurry 
    now. 
    Can 
    you 
    make 
    it home? 

    Can 
    you 
    make 
    it back? 

    If 
    nothing’s built 
    to last 

    Why 
    don’t you 

    Just 
    put 
    me out 
    on 
    Alcatraz? 

    Verse 4


    I’ve been 
    accused 
    time 

    or two 

    Of having 
    sentimental 
    attributes 

    Of 
    hanging 
    on 
    too long 

    When 
    nostalgia 
    is 
    a vice 

    It 
    captures 
    warm 
    place 
    in time 

    And like 
    a cool 
    fog 
    rolling 
    in, 

    Clouding 
    up, 

    the 
    heart 
    and mind 

    Verse 5

    Well 
    no 
    man’s an is
    land 

    What 
    with 
    Califor
    Verse 6
    nia 

    Sliding 
    off 
    the chart 

    Pack your 
    suitcase 
    up 

    Make 
    brand 
    new 
    start 


    California’s sliding 
    off 
    the map 

    Hurry 
    now. 
    Can 
    you make 
    it home? 

    Can 
    you 
    make 
    it back? 

    If 
    nothing’s built 
    to last? 

    Why 
    don’t you 

    Just 
    put 
    me out 
    on 
    Alcatraz? 


    Verse 7

    And every 
    tear 
    in 
    your past 

    The reser
    voir 
    you blink 
    away 

    Washing 
    down 
    all 
    the 
    hilly 
    streets 

    Out 
    in
    to 
    the bay 

    No 
    man 
    is 
    an island 

    But each 
    one 
    does 
    his 
    time 

    To 
    see 
    if he 
    can 
    tough 
    it out 

    In 
    prison 
    of 
    the mind 

    And like 
    a note 
    to 
    lover 

    Through 
    the 
    blue 
    lines 
    you 
    can see 

    A chance 
    to 
    stay 
    prisoner 

    Or 
    an 
    easy 
    way 
    to break yourself 
    free 

    Verse 8
    Oh 
    California’s sliding 
    off 
    the chart 

    Pack 
    your suitcase 
    up 

    Baby 
    open 
    up your 
    heart 


    California’s sliding 
    off 
    the map 

    Hurry 
    now. 
    Can 
    you make 
    it home? 

    Can 
    you 
    make 
    it back? 

    If 
    nothing’s built 
    to last 

    Why 
    don’t you 

    Just 
    put 
    me 
    out 
    on 
    Alcatraz?

    • 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.
