    You 
    know, 
    man, 

    when 
    was 
    young 
    man 
    in 
    high 
    school 

    You 
    believe 
    it 
    or 
    not, 

    wanted 
    to 
    play 
    football 
    for 
    the 
    coach 

    And 
    all 
    those 
    older 
    guys, 
    they 
    said 

    that 
    he 
    was 
    mean 
    and 
    cruel, 
    but 
    you 
    know 

    wanted 
    to 
    play 
    football, 
    for 
    the 
    coach 

    They 
    said 
    was 
    little 
    too 
    lightweight 

    to 
    play 
    lineback 
    and 
    so 
    I was 
    playin' 
    right- 
    end 

    Wanted 
    to 
    play 
    football 
    for 
    the 
    coach 

    'Cause, 
    you 
    know 
    some 
    day, 

    man 
    you 
    gotta 
    stand 
    up 
    straight 

    unless 
    you're 
    gonna 
    fall 

    Then 
    you're 
    going 
    to 
    die 

    And 
    the 
    straightest 
    dude, 
    ever 
    knew 

    was 
    standing 
    right 
    for 
    me, 
    all 
    the 
    time 

    So 
    had 
    to 
    play 
    football 
    for 
    the 
    coach 

    And 
    wanted 
    to 
    play 
    football 
    for 
    the 
    coach 


    Verse 1
    When 
    you're 
    all 
    alone 
    and 
    lonely 

    In 
    your 
    midnight 
    hour 

    And 
    you 
    find 
    that 
    your 
    soul 

    It 
    has 
    been 
    up 
    for 
    sale 

    And 
    you're 
    getting 
    to 
    think 
    about 

    All 
    the 
    things 
    that 
    you 
    done 

    And 
    you're 
    getting 
    to 
    hate 

    Just 
    about 
    every
    thing 

    Chorus 1
    But 
    remember 
    the 
    princess 

    who 
    lived 
    on 
    the 
    hill 

    Who 
    loved 
    you 
    even 
    though 
    she 
    knew 

    you 
    was 
    wrong 

    And 
    right 
    now 
    she 
    just 

    might 
    come 
    shining 
    through, 
    and 
    the 

    Glory 
    of 
    love 

    Glory 
    of 
    love 

    Glory 
    of 
    love, 

    just 
    might 
    come 
    through 

    Verse 2
    And 
    all 
    your 
    two-bit 
    friends 
    have 
    gone 

    and 
    ripped 
    you 
    off 

    They're 
    talking 
    behind 
    your 
    back 
    saying 

    "man, 
    you're 
    never 
    going 
    to 
    be 

    no 
    human 
    being" 

    And 
    you 
    start 
    thinking 
    again 

    about 
    all 
    those 
    things 
    that 
    you've 
    done 

    And 
    who 
    it 
    was 
    and 
    what 
    it 
    was 

    And 
    all 
    the 
    different 
    things 

    that 
    made 
    every 
    different 
    scene 

    Chorus 2
    Ah, 
    but 
    remember 

    that 
    the 
    city 
    is 
    funny 
    place 

    Something 
    like 
    circus 
    or 
    sewer 

    And 
    just 
    remember, 

    different 
    people 
    have 
    peculiar 
    tastes, 
    and 
    the 

    Glory 
    of 
    love 

    The 
    glory 
    of 
    love 

    The 
    glory 
    of 
    love, 

    might 
    see 
    you 
    through 

    Outro 1
    Yeah, 
    but 
    now, 
    now, 
    glory 
    of 
    love 

    The 
    glory 
    of 
    love 

    The 
    glory 
    of 
    love 

    might 
    see 
    you 
    through 

    Glory 
    of 
    love, 
    uh, 
    huh-huh 

    The 
    glory 
    of 
    love 

    Glory 
    of 
    love, 
    glory 
    of 
    love 

    Glory 
    of 
    love, 
    now, 
    glory 
    of 
    love, 
    now 

    Glory 
    of 
    love, 
    now, 
    now, 
    now, 
    glory 
    of 
    love 

    Glory 
    of 
    love, 
    give 
    it 
    to 
    me 
    now, 

    glory 
    of 
    love 
    to 
    see 
    you 
    through, 
    huh 

    Oh, 
    my 
    Coney 
    Island 
    baby, 
    now 

    (I'm 
    Coney 
    Island 
    baby) 

    I'd 
    like

    this 
    one 
    out

    Island 
    baby)

    • 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.
