    Verse 1
    My 
    makeup 
    is 
    dry 
    and 
    it 
    cracks 
    'round 
    my 
    chin 

    I'm 
    drowning 
    my 
    sorrows 
    in 
    whisky 
    and 
    gin 


    Verse 2
    The 
    lion 
    tamer's 
    whip 
    doesn't 
    crack 
    anymore 

    The 
    lions, 
    they 
    won't 
    bite 

    and 
    the 
    tigers 
    won't 
    roar 

    Pre-chorus 1
    La-la-la, 
    la-la-la, 
    la-la-la- 
    la 

    So 
    let's 
    all 
    drink 
    to 
    the 
    death 
    of 
    clown 

    Chorus 1
    Won't 
    someone 
    help 
    me 

    to 
    break 
    up 
    this 
    crown 

    Let's 
    all 
    drink 
    to 
    the 
    death 
    of 
    clown 

    La-la-la, 
    la-la-la, 
    la-la-la- 
    la 

    Let's 
    all 
    drink 
    to 
    the 
    death 
    of 
    clown 


    Verse 3
    The 
    old 
    fortune 
    teller 
    lies 
    dead 
    on 
    the 
    floor 

    Nobody 
    needs 
    fortunes 
    told 
    any
    more 


    Verse 4
    The 
    trainer 
    of 
    insects 
    is 
    crouched 
    on 
    his 
    knees 

    And 
    frantically 
    looking 
    for 
    runaway 
    fleas 

    Pre-chorus 2

    La-la-la, 
    la-la-la, 
    la-la-la-

    the

    So 
    won't 
    someone 
    help 
    me 

    to 
    break 
    up 
    this 
    crown 

    Let's 
    all

    to 
    the 
    death 
    of 
    clown 

    La-la-la,

    la-la-la- 
    la 

    Let's 
    all 
    drink 
    to 
    the

    • 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.
