  • Intro 1


    Verse 1
    don't 
    like 
    humus, 

    hate 
    long 
    lines 

    Nosy 
    neighbors 
    and 

    the 
    nation 
    blind 

    Chirpy 
    news 
    anchors 

    alter 
    my 
    mood 

    I'm 
    offended 
    by 
    buzz 
    words 

    like 
    awesome 
    and 
    dude 

    Verse 2

    I look 
    like 
    a train 
    wreck, 
    feel like 
    a blob 

    Till 
    you 
    get to know 
    me, 

    you may 
    think 
    I'm a snob 

    But 
    I'm 
    closer 
    to 
    heaven 

    than I've 
    ever 
    been 

    Verse 3

    I don't 
    eat 
    sushi, 

    I don't 
    smoke 
    grass 

    I don't 
    wear pajamas, 

    I don't 
    drive 
    fast 

    hate 
    idle 
    gossip 
    and 
    tassle shoes 

    Slick 
    politicians, 

    give me 
    the blues 

    Verse 4
    I don't 
    ride in 
    limos and 

    I can't 
    play 
    golf 

    I don't 
    own a rifle 
    that will 

    blow 
    your head 
    off 

    But 
    I'm 
    closer 
    to heaven 
    than 
    I've 

    ever 
    been 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 5
    I'm 
    rid
    ing 
    that 
    way 
    from 

    cradle 
    to 
    grave 

    I'm 
    learn
    ing 
    to 
    feel 
    my 

    hands 
    on 
    the 
    wheel 

    Verse 6
    I love 
    my 
    friends, 
    I love 
    my 
    wife 

    Four 
    little babies 
    are the 
    light 
    of my life 

    love 
    Sissy 
    Spacek, I love 
    Guy 
    Clark 

    All the 
    biscuits 
    and gravy 

    I can 
    eat with 
    a fork 

    Verse 7
    I don't 
    wanna 
    be famous, 

    who gives 
    a damn? 

    I just 
    wanna 
    be happy 

    whoever 
    am 

    And I'm 
    closer 
    to heaven 

    than 
    I've ever 
    been 

    I'm 
    closer 
    to 
    heaven 
    than 

    I've ever 
    been 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 8
    Closer 
    to 
    heaven 

    Closer 
    to 
    heaven

    • 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.
