    December
    ’s 
    traditions 

    Suck the last 
    of summer 
    from 
    our cheeks 

    Draw 
    the curtains, 
    strip 
    the trees 

    In so- 
    called 
    living 
    rooms 

    Scottish 
    pas
    times come 

    to roost 

    Love’s labour 
    stains 
    a linen 

    sheet 

    The ghostly 
    body 

    Who makes 
    his bed 
    Verse 2
    beside 
    you 

    Is 
    slowly 
    losing 
    teeth

    The 
    boy needs 
    sunlight 

    And 
    a shot 
    of modesty 

    He needs to 
    get some 
    sleep

    Verse 3

    It’s not 
    the 
    answer

    A sticking 
    plaster 
    on a shattered 
    bone 

    What 
    do you 
    need? 

    What do you 
    need 
    from me? 

    It’s not 
    the 
    answer

    Keep treating 
    cancer 
    like 
    a cold 

    What 
    do you 
    need? 

    What 
    do you 
    need 
    from 

    me? 

    Verse 4

    After 
    months 
    of 
    griev
    ing 

    Fuck 
    the grief, 
    I’m leav
    ing 

    Will 
    you leave 
    with 
    me? 

    The 
    bloodloss, the towering 
    cost 

    Of 
    mouth 
    to mouth 
    and tongue 

    to tongue 

    One lick 
    brings 
    warm 
    metallic 
    taste 

    may correct 
    myself 

    Con
    vince 
    you that 
    there’s no- 

    one 
    else 

    In volumes 
    of new 
    leaves 

    If you 
    want 
    a saint 
    you 
    don’t want 
    me 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 5
    It’s not 
    the 
    answer 

    sticking 
    plaster 
    on a 
    shattered 
    bone 

    What 
    do you 
    need? 

    What do you 
    need 
    from 
    me? 

    It’s not 
    the 
    answer

    Keep treating 
    cancer 
    like 
    a cold 

    What 
    do you need? 

    What do you 
    need 
    from me? 

    It’s not 
    the 
    answer

    Verse 6
    I’m just 
    begging 
    to 
    be 
    told 

    What you 
    need 

    What 
    you 
    need 
    from 
    me 

    If I 
    had 
    the 
    answer

    I’d write 
    a book 
    on what 
    know 

    What 
    do you 
    need? 

    What 
    do you need 
    from 
    me?

    • 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.
