    Verse 1
    Nothing 
    must 
    pass 
    this 
    line 

    Unless 
    it 
    is 
    well 
    defined 

    You 
    just 
    have 
    to 
    be 
    resigned 


    You're crashing 
    by 
    design 

    You 
    once 
    be
    lieved 
    that 
    crazy 
    accidents 

    Were 
    happening 
    to 
    you 

    You 
    were 
    chasing 
    a 

    capricious 
    wind 

    Whenever 
    bad 
    luck 
    and 
    trouble 

    Happened 
    to 
    pursue 
    you 

    The 
    dice 
    would 
    surely 
    save 
    your skin 

    But 
    when 
    you 
    look 
    back 

    you 
    must 
    real
    ize 

    That 
    nothing 
    in 
    your 
    life's 

    di
    vine 

    Everything 
    that's 
    ever 

    befallen 
    you 

    Happened 
    simply 
    'cause 

    it 
    crossed 
    your 
    mind 

    You're 
    crashing 
    by 
    design 

    Nothing 
    must 
    pass 
    this 
    line 

    Unless 
    it 
    is 
    well 
    defined 

    You 
    just 
    have 
    to 
    be 
    resigned 

    You're 
    crashing 
    by 
    design 

    In 
    your single- 
    roomed 
    flat 

    in 
    a courtyard 
    building 

    You sit 
    alone 
    just 
    like 

    a broken 
    toy 

    Where's 
    your 
    mother, 

    where's 
    your 
    lover 

    And 
    where 
    are 
    the 
    children 

    Are 
    you 
    a man 
    or 
    still 
    a 
    boy? 

    Who 
    left 
    you 
    behind, 

    or 
    did 
    you 
    run 

    From 
    the 
    crush 
    of 
    so 
    many 
    options? 

    Now 
    you 
    know 
    the spe
    cial 

    despair 
    of 
    the man 

    Dis
    cussed, 

    debated 
    and 
    offered 
    for 
    ad
    option 

    Nothing 
    must 
    pass 
    this 
    line 

    Unless 
    it 
    is 
    well 
    defined 

    You 
    just 
    have 
    to be 
    resigned 

    Another 
    man 
    without 
    a 
    woman 

    Dropped 
    like 
    a useless 
    tool 

    no 
    longer 
    re
    quired 

    A man 
    who 
    longs 
    for 
    the stifling 

    Milk 
    flowered 
    bos
    om, 
    a fool 

    Who's 
    no 
    longer 
    desired 

    Interlude 1


    An
    other 
    Verse 2
    man 
    without 
    a 
    wo
    man 

    Too 
    many 
    rages 
    have 
    cost 
    you 
    this 
    time 

    Another 
    man 
    among 
    a 

    hundred 
    children 

    You're 
    just 
    a 
    child 
    who 
    is 
    lost 

    in 
    time

      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.
