    Verse 1
    I have 
    dreamed 
    a dream, 

    there 
    a common 
    man 

    Ah, 
    hoping 
    to 
    rise 
    to 
    the 

    top 

    I have 
    sworn 
    by my 
    blood 

    as 
    your 
    man, 
    my 
    love 

    That 
    one 
    day, 
    I prom
    ise

    would 
    stop 

    Verse 2
    But 
    I'll 
    never 
    never

    never 
    change 
    one 
    single 
    grain 
    of sand 

    Oh, 
    thanks

    you this 
    evening 

    Oh, 
    Verse 3
    I 
    thought, 

    I 
    thought 
    that 
    I 
    failed 
    you 
    so 

    But that's 
    when 
    you 
    turn 
    around 

    and look 
    me 
    in my 
    eyes 

    And 
    you 
    let 
    me 
    know 

    You 
    said 
    and you 
    said 
    it 
    softly 

    I didn't 
    have 
    to 
    worry 
    about 

    being 
    a 
    common 
    man

    don't 
    have 
    to worry 
    about 
    rising 
    to 
    the top" 

    You 
    said, 
    you 
    said, 

    you said 
    I 
    didn't 
    have 
    to swear 
    by 
    my 
    blood 

    Verse 4
    But ah 
    baby, 

    that one 
    day 
    your 
    heartaches 
    would 
    stop 

    Then 
    you 
    put 
    your 
    arms 

    around 
    me 
    and 
    you said 

    You 
    never 
    never 
    never 
    never 
    cared 

    If 
    I never 
    change 
    one 
    single 
    grain 
    of 
    sand 

    You 
    said, 
    "I 
    love 
    you, 
    baby 

    I 
    love 
    you 
    for 
    just 
    be

    a common 
    man"

      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.
