    • Verse 1
    [Otis 
    (& then Melvin 

    - spoken)] 

    By and 
    by, 
    you 
    knew 
    that 
    you make 
    me 
    cry. 
    (By and by, 

    knew 
    you'd 
    make 
    me 
    cry) 

    And 
    my 
    love 
    for 
    you 
    will 
    never 
    die. 

    (My love 
    will 
    never, 
    never 
    die) 

    But 
    I 
    had 
    to 
    find 
    out 
    on 
    my 
    own. 

    Verse 2

    (Check yourself, 
    check 
    yourself) 

    Verse 3
    [Paul:] 
    Aww, that's 
    what 
    they 

    told 
    me. (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    I paid 
    no 
    mind. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    I 
    kept 
    on 
    breaking 
    hearts, 

    (Check yourself, 
    check 
    yourself) 

    All 
    down 
    the 
    line. 
    (Check y
    ourself, 

    Verse 4
    check yourself) 

    Sometimes 
    you 
    just 
    got 
    to 
    lose. 

    That's 
    when 
    you 
    pay 
    your 
    dues. 

    I 
    guess 
    I was 
    a 
    fool, 
    I 
    guess 
    I was 
    a 
    fool, 

    To 
    think 
    that... 
    you'd 
    stayed 
    so 
    true. 

    Verse 5
    Aww, 
    I really 
    played 
    in 
    the 
    game. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    I'd always 
    win. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    Now the 
    tables 
    turn. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    And I'm 
    on 
    the 
    losing 
    end. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    Verse 6
    Oh 
    don't, 
    feel 
    sorry. 

    I 
    had 
    it 
    coming, 
    it's 
    true. 

    'Cause 
    I'm 
    losing, 
    yes, 
    I'm 
    losing, 

    I'm 
    losing 
    you. 

    Verse 7

    Before 
    I 
    go, 
    I'd 
    like 
    for 
    you 
    to 
    know. 

    You've 
    had 
    my 
    heart 

    from 
    the 
    very 
    start. 

    But 
    there's 
    one 
    more 
    thing, 

    before 
    we 
    part. 

    And 
    that's 
    I'm 
    sorry, 
    sorry, 

    sorry 
    to 
    my 
    heart. 

    Verse 8

    Aww, 
    I'm 
    on 
    my 
    sad 
    way. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    Because I 
    know 
    I'd 
    lost 
    your 
    love. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check yourself) 

    I'll 
    kick 
    it, 
    like 
    a pass. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    Verse 9
    But I'll 
    be 
    thinking 
    of.... 

    The 
    good 
    times. 
    (The good 
    times) 

    The 
    bad 
    times. 
    (The bad 
    times) 

    But 
    good 
    or bad, 
    happy 
    or sad, 

    Of 
    memories. 
    (Memories) 

    Sweet, sweet 
    memor

    ies. 
    (Memories) 

    Aww, 
    memories... 
    are 
    all 
    I 
    have. 

    Verse 10
    Aww, 
    that's 
    what 
    they 
    told 
    me. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    That's what 
    they 
    told 
    me. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    That's 
    what 
    they... 
    what 
    they 
    told 
    me. 
    (Check yourself, 

    check 
    yourself) 

    Hmmm...

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
