    There's 
    a 
    man 
    Verse 1
    on 
    the 
    roadside 

    Standing 
    in 
    the shadow 
    of 
    a stop 
    sign 

    When 
    you 
    think 
    there's 
    nowhere 

    left 
    for 
    you 
    to 
    go 

    That's 
    when 
    you 
    cling 
    tight 
    to 
    the 

    devil 
    you 
    know 
    an
    d you 
    know 

    Verse 2

    Let's 
    go

    Where 
    the 
    water 
    runs 
    still 
    and 
    deep 

    Scat
    ter 
    the 
    ashes 
    of 
    the 
    mess 

    I 
    used 
    to 
    be 

    Drink 
    'til 
    there's 
    nothing 
    left 

    Lay 
    on 
    the 
    shore 
    and 
    take 
    a 

    good 
    deep 
    breath 

    Shapes 
    in 
    the sand, 

    warm 
    sun 
    shin
    ing 
    through 
    the

    A

    I 
    can

    Verse 3
    There 

    are 
    rats 
    in 
    the silos 

    Drowning 
    themselves 
    in 
    your 
    sorrows 

    You 
    can have 
    your 
    cake 
    and 
    eat 
    it 
    too 

    Now 
    that 
    the 
    wall's 
    too 
    thick 
    for 
    you 

    to chew 
    your 
    way 
    out 
    through 

    Out 
    through, 
    out 
    through 

    Verse 4
    Let's 
    go 
    down 
    to

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
