She was a real royal lady,

She said the best country singers
Bm
G

die in the back of classic cars
D

So if I ever got too hungry
G

for a suitcase or guitar
D
A
D

To think of them all alone in the dark
Bm
D

So I laid some nights beside her
G

in a bed made for a queen
A

She said I kissed her different,
Bm
G

that all the men her age were mean
D

Gave me anything I wanted,
G

oh, the generosity
D
A
D

I took all that I could, it was free

Now the sky is a torn up denim and the
G

clouds are just splattered paint
A

It?s a room I?m renovating,
Bm
G

it?s a name I got to change
D

If I get out of California I?m going
G

back to my home state
D
A

To tell them all that I made
D

a mistake

G

And I keep looking for that

blindfold faith

Who wants the last laugh at the fly

trapped in the windowsill tape

You can go right out of your

mind trying to escape

The whole world,

it loves you if you are a chic chameleon

hang with anyone

But when conducting business she would

lie about where she?s from

She?d talk forever about the

phases of the moon

G

you?ve got to let it come to you

And when it does,
A
D

you will know what to do"

D

Without even knowing I
G

guess I took her advice
A

Painted her front door,
Bm

it seemed a suitable goodbye

It?s not that often but I
G

think of her sometimes
D

Just something quaint,
A

a couple ships in the night
Verse 4

And they keep moving at a glacial pace

Turning circles in a memory maze

I had to change the combination

to the safe

  • 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.
