    Verse 1
    That 

    old dog 
    has chained 
    you 
    up al
    right 

    Give 
    you 
    everything 
    you need 
    to 

    live 
    in
    side 
    a twisted 
    cage 

    Sleep 
    beside 
    an 
    empty 
    rage 

    I 
    had 
    a dream 
    I was 
    your 
    hero 

    Verse 2
    Damn, 
    I 
    wish 
    I 
    was 
    your 
    lover 

    I'd 
    rock 
    you 
    'til 
    the daylight 
    comes 

    Make 
    sure 
    you 
    are smiling 
    and 
    warm 

    I 
    am 
    everything 

    To
    night 
    I'll be 
    your 
    mother 

    I'll 
    do 
    such 
    things 
    to 
    ease your 
    pain 

    Free 
    your 
    mind 
    and you 

    won't 
    feel 
    ashamed 

    Oh, 
    oh 

    Open 
    up, I'm 
    gonna 
    get inside 

    I'm gonna 
    fill 
    you up, 

    gonna 
    make 
    you cry 

    Verse 3
    This 
    monkey 
    can't 
    stand 
    to see 

    you 
    black 
    and blue 

    I give 
    you 
    something 

    sweet 
    each time 
    you 

    Come 
    inside 
    my 
    jungle 
    book 

    What 
    is 
    it just 
    too 
    good? 

    Don't 
    say 
    you'll 
    stay 

    'Cause 
    then you'll 
    go 
    away 

    Verse 4
    Damn, 
    I wish 
    I 
    was 
    your 
    lover 

    I'd 
    rock 
    you 
    'til 
    the daylight 
    comes 

    Make 
    sure 
    you 
    are smiling 
    and 
    warm 

    I 
    am 
    everything 

    To
    night 
    I'll be 
    your 
    mother 

    I'll 
    do 
    such 
    things 
    to 
    ease 
    your pain 

    Free 
    your 
    mind 
    and you 

    won't 
    feel 
    ashamed 

    Shucks, 
    for 
    me 
    there 
    is no 
    other 

    You're 
    the 
    only 
    shoe 
    that 
    fits 

    I 
    can't 
    imagine 
    I'll 
    grow 
    out 
    of it 

    Damn, 
    I 
    wish 
    I was 
    your 

    lover 

    (Yeah) 

    Verse 5
    If 
    I was 
    your 
    girl, 
    believe 
    me 

    I'd 
    turn 
    on 
    the Rolling 
    Stones 

    We could 
    groove 
    along 
    and 

    feel 
    much 
    better 

    Let 
    me 
    in 

    I could do 
    it 
    forever 
    and 
    ever 

    and 
    ever 
    and 
    ever

    Give 
    me 
    an 
    hour 
    to 
    kiss you 

    Walk 
    through 
    heaven's 
    door 

    I'm 
    sure 

    We don't need 
    no doctor 

    to feel 
    much 
    better

    Let 
    me 
    in, 
    oh 

    Forever 
    and ever 
    and 
    ever 
    and 
    ever 

    Verse 6
    I 

    sat 
    on 
    the mountainside 

    with peace 
    of mind 

    And 
    I 
    lay 
    by 
    the ocean 
    making 
    love 

    to her 
    with 
    visions 
    clear 

    Walked 
    for days 
    with no 
    one 
    near 

    And 
    I return 
    as chained 

    and bound 
    to 
    you 

    Verse 7
    Damn, 
    I wish 
    I 
    was 
    your 
    lover 

    I'd 
    rock 
    you 
    'til 
    the daylight 
    comes 

    Make 
    sure 
    you 
    are smiling 
    and 
    warm 

    I 
    am 
    everything

    night 
    I'll be 
    your 
    mother

      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

      "

      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.
