    Verse 1
    Outside 
    the 
    cafe 
    by 
    the 
    cracker 
    facto
    ry 

    You 
    were 
    practicing 
    magic 
    trick 

    And 
    my 
    thoughts 
    got 
    rude, 

    as 
    you 
    talked 
    and 
    chewed 

    On 
    the 
    last 
    of 
    your 
    pick 
    and 
    mix 

    Said, 
    "You're 
    mistaken 
    if 
    you're 
    thinking 
    that 

    haven't 
    been 
    called 
    "cold" 
    before" 

    As 
    you 
    bit 
    into 
    your 
    strawberry 
    lace 

    And 
    then 
    offered 
    me 
    your 
    at
    tention 
    in 
    the 

    form 
    of 
    gobstopper 

    It's 
    all 
    you 
    had 
    left 

    and 
    it 
    was 
    going 
    to 
    waste 

    Chorus 1
    Your 
    pastimes, 
    con
    sisted 
    of 
    the 
    strange 

    And 
    twisted 
    and 
    deranged 

    And 
    love 
    that 
    little 
    game 
    you 
    had 
    called 

    "Crying 
    Lightning" 

    And 
    how 
    you 
    like 
    to 
    aggravate 

    the 
    ice-cream 
    man 
    on 
    rainy 
    afternoons 




    The 
    next 
    time 
    that 

    Verse 2
    caught 
    my 
    own 
    ref
    lection 

    It 
    was 
    on 
    it's 
    way 
    to 
    meet 
    you 

    Thinking 
    of 
    ex
    cuses 
    to 
    postpone 

    You 
    never 
    looked 
    like 
    yourself 
    from 
    the 
    side 

    But 
    your 
    profile 
    could 
    not 
    hide 

    The 
    fact 
    you 
    knew 
    was 

    app
    roaching 
    your 
    throne 

    With 
    folded 
    arms 
    you 

    occu
    pied 
    the 
    bench 
    like 
    toothache 

    Stood 
    and 
    puffed 
    your 
    chest 
    out 
    like 
    you 

    never 
    lost 
    war 

    And 
    though 
    tried 
    so 
    not 
    to 
    suffer 

    the 
    in
    dignity 
    of 
    re
    action 

    There 
    was 
    no 
    cracks 
    to 
    grasp 

    or 
    gaps 
    to 
    claw 

    Chorus 2
    And 
    your 
    pastimes, 

    con
    sisted 
    of 
    the 
    strange 

    And 
    twisted 
    and 
    deranged 

    And 
    hate 
    that 
    little 
    game 
    you 
    had 
    called 

    "Crying 
    Lightning" 

    And 
    how 
    you 
    like 
    to 
    aggravate 

    the 
    icky 
    man 
    on 
    rainy 
    afternoons 

    Unin
    viting 

    But 
    not 
    half 
    as 
    impossible 
    as 

    everyone 
    assumes 
    you 
    are 

    Crying 
    lightning

    Chorus 3
    Your 
    pastimes, 
    con
    sisted 
    of 
    the 
    strange 

    And 
    twisted 
    and

    that 
    little 
    game 
    you 
    had 
    called 

    "Crying 
    Lightning" 

    "Crying 
    Lightning" 

    "Crying 
    Lightning" 

    "Crying 
    Lightning" 

    Your 
    pastimes, 

    con
    sisted 
    of 
    the 
    strange 

    And 
    twisted 
    and 
    deranged 

    And 
    hate 
    that 
    little 
    game 

    you 
    had 
    called 
    "Crying"

    • 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.
