  • Verse 1
    When I was 

    younger 

    My daddy 
    told 
    me I would 
    never 

    Never 
    amount to 
    nothing 
    special 

    He'd come 
    at me from 
    every 
    angle 

    Verse 2
    He'd 
    say, 
    "You're the last 
    thing 
    wanted, 

    the last 
    thing 
    need 

    How 
    am I 
    gonna 
    answer 

    when my 
    friends 
    tell 
    me 

    My 
    son 
    was 
    kissing 
    boys 
    in the 
    street? 

    My 
    son 
    was 
    kissing 
    boys 

    in the 
    street" 

    Verse 3
    He'd 
    try to 
    change 
    me 

    Say 
    I'm 
    embarrassing 
    my 
    country 

    How 
    could I 
    do this 
    to my 
    family? 

    Do 
    I wanna 
    grow 
    up being 
    lonely? 

    Verse 4
    He'd say, 
    "We have 

    worked for 
    our 
    money 

    We've put 
    you 
    in school 

    Is this how 
    you 
    repay 
    us? 

    Do you 
    think 
    this is 
    cool? 

    My son, 
    stop 
    kissing 
    boys 
    in the 
    street 

    My 
    son, 
    stop 
    kissing 
    boys 
    in the 

    street" 

    Verse 5

    Now that 
    I'm older 

    My daddy's 
    heart's 
    a little 
    warmer 

    But 
    he still won't 
    hug me 
    like my 
    brother 

    And 
    he still won't 
    kiss 
    me like 

    my 
    mother 

    Verse 6
    He'd say, 
    "You're a part 
    of this 
    family, 

    I made 
    you myself 

    But the way 
    that 
    you 
    act 

    isn't good 
    for your 
    health 

    My son, 
    stop 
    kissing 
    boys 
    in the 
    street 

    My 
    son, 
    stop 
    kissing 
    boys 
    in the 
    street" 


    Verse 7

    My daddy's 
    dying 

    But 
    he's finally 
    realized 
    I'm 
    not lying 

    We sit 
    in silence, 

    but we're 
    smil
    ing 

    Because for 
    once, 
    we are not 
    fighting 

    Verse 8
    He'd 
    say, 
    "There 
    was no 
    way 
    of 

    knowing 
    'cause 
    all 
    I was 
    taught 
    is 

    Men 
    only 
    love 
    women, 

    but 
    now I'm 
    not sure 

    My 
    son, 
    keep 
    kissing 
    boys 

    in the 
    street 

    My son, 
    keep 
    kissing 
    boys 
    in the 
    street 

    An
    d when 
    I'm 
    gone, 

    keep 
    kissing 
    boys 
    in the street"

    • 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.
