    Small 
    town, 
    bright 
    lights, 

    Saturday 
    night 

    Pinballs and 
    pool 
    halls 

    flashing 
    their 
    light

    Making 
    change 
    behind 

    the counter 
    in 
    penny 
    arcade 

    Sat 
    the 
    fat 
    girl 
    daughter

    Ray 

    Verse 2

    Lydia 

    Lydia 
    hid 
    her 
    thoughts 
    like 
    cat 

    Behind 
    her 
    small 
    eyes 
    sunk 
    deep 
    in 
    her 
    fat 

    She 
    read 
    romance 
    magazine 

    up 
    in 
    her 
    room 

    And 
    felt 
    just 
    like 
    Sunday 
    on 

    Sat
    urday 
    afternoon 

    Verse 3

    But 
    dream
    ing 
    just 
    comes 
    nat
    ural 

    Like 
    the 
    first 
    breath 
    from 
    baby 

    Like 
    sunshine 
    feeding 
    daisies 

    Like 
    the 
    love 
    hidden 
    deep 

    Interlude 1
    in 
    your 
    heart 


    Verse 4
    Bunk 
    beds, 
    shaved 
    heads, 

    Saturday 
    night 

    A warehouse 
    of strangers 

    with sixty 
    watt 
    light

    Star
    ing 
    through 
    the ceiling, 

    just 
    wanting 
    to be 

    Lay 
    one 
    of 
    too 
    many, 
    a young 
    PFC 

    Verse 5
    Donald 

    There 
    were 
    spaces 
    between 
    Donald 

    and 
    whatever 
    he said 

    Strangers 
    had 
    forced 
    him 
    to 
    live 
    in 
    his 
    head 

    He 
    en
    visioned 
    the 
    details 

    of 
    romantic 
    scenes 

    After 
    midnight 
    in 
    the stillness 

    of 
    the 
    bar
    racks 
    latrine 

    Verse 6
    But 
    dreaming 
    just 
    comes 
    nat
    ural 

    Like 
    the 
    first 
    breath 
    from 
    baby 

    Like 
    sunshine 
    feeding 
    daisies 

    Like 
    the 
    love 
    hidden 
    deep 

    in 
    your 
    heart 

    Verse 7

    Hot 
    love, 
    cold 
    love, 
    no 
    love 
    at 
    all 

    portrait 
    of 
    guilt 
    is 
    hung 
    on 
    the wall 

    Nothing 
    is 
    wrong, 
    nothing 
    is 
    right 

    Donald 
    and 
    Lydia 
    made 
    love 
    that 
    night 

    Verse 8

    Love 

    The made 
    love 
    in 
    the 
    mountains, 

    they 
    made 
    love 
    in 
    the stream

    They 
    made 
    love 
    in 
    the 
    valleys, 

    they 
    made 
    love 
    in 
    their 
    dream

    But 
    when 
    they 
    was 
    finished 
    there 

    was 
    nothing 
    to say 

    'Cause 
    mostly 
    they made 
    love 

    from 
    ten 
    miles 
    away 

    Verse 9

    But 
    dreaming 
    just 
    comes 
    nat
    ural 

    Like 
    the 
    first 
    breath 
    from 
    baby 

    Like 
    sunshine 
    feeding 
    daisies 

    Like 
    the 
    love 
    hidden 
    deep 
    in 
    your 
    heart

    • 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.
