  • Intro 1

    Verse 1
    listened 
    to 
    lecture 

    of 
    nonsense 
    until 
    dawn 

    By 
    pla
    giary 
    poet 
    with 

    dark 
    glasses 
    on 

    He said, 
    "How 
    did 
    you 
    ever 

    dream 
    up 
    that 
    song 

    The 
    one 
    where 
    the 
    baby 
    dies?" 

    Verse 2

    I said, 
    "I'll 
    tell 
    you 
    the 
    secret, 

    which 
    one's 
    your 
    good 
    ear? 

    Yeah, 
    people 
    are 
    made 
    up 
    of 
    water 
    and 
    fear 

    If 
    there 
    weren't 
    women 
    present 

    we 
    wouldn't 
    be 
    here 

    So 
    let's 
    make 
    like 

    we're 
    friends" 

    Verse 3

    And 
    the 
    pot 
    turned 
    to 
    powder 

    and 
    soured 
    the 
    mood 

    And 
    the 
    people 
    I'd 
    come 
    with 

    were 
    gone 
    from 
    the 
    room 

    So 
    asked 
    like 
    child, 

    "May 
    be 
    excused?" 

    And 
    disobeyed 
    them 
    all 

    Verse 4

    Into 
    that 
    late-night 
    latrine, 
    latrine, 

    rain 
    soaking 
    through 
    my 
    shoes 

    I tried 
    walk
    ing 
    backwards 

    to 
    get 
    less 
    confused 

    Working 
    off 
    the 
    theory 
    I could 
    never 
    prove 

    That 
    it 
    was 
    life 
    itself 
    to 
    blame 

    Verse 5
    And 
    time 
    ruined 
    the world 

    Like 
    a failed 
    revolu
    tion 

    tumor 
    we 
    could 
    not 
    remove 

    An old 
    friend, 
    constant, 

    the 
    blues 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 6
    Now 
    my 
    days 
    are 
    distractions, 

    sit 
    wringing 
    my 
    hands 

    Solitaire, 
    crosswords and 
    films 
    on 
    demand 

    When you 
    turn 
    from 
    cartoon 

    back 
    into 
    man 

    You start 
    to 
    smell 
    that 
    human 
    smell 

    Verse 7
    So 
    I sleep 
    with 
    the 
    fan 
    on 

    to drown 
    out 
    the street 

    And 
    the noise 
    rising 
    up 
    from 

    the 
    bar 
    un
    derneath 

    But for 
    that 
    inconvenience 

    all 
    my 
    drinks 
    are free 

    So 
    guess 
    it's 
    just 
    as 
    well 

    Verse 8
    Why 
    do I 
    envy 
    the 
    ending 

    right 
    from 
    the 
    start 

    Just 
    get 
    it 
    together 
    to 
    take 
    it 
    apart 

    Watching 
    the 
    horse 
    as 
    it 

    follows 
    the cart 

    I sweep 
    up 
    my 
    broken 
    spell 

    Verse 9
    And I 
    felt 
    something 
    changing 
    the 
    world 

    Like 
    a new 
    constitu
    tion 

    A thief 
    would have 
    to 
    pur
    sue 

    At 
    all 
    times, 
    at all 
    costs, 
    the truth

    • 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.
