    Verse 1
    could 
    shed 
    my 

    skin 
    and 
    in 
    the 
    blink 
    of 
    an 
    eye, 

    could 
    fly, 
    fly, 
    fly. 

    Tie 
    my 
    dreams 
    up 
    in 
    sack 
    and 
    lay 

    my 
    head 
    down 
    on 
    the 
    track, 

    And 
    die, 
    die, 
    die. 

    My 
    life's 
    been 
    so 
    sweet 

    just 
    can
    't 
    stand 
    it. 

    must 
    ad
    mit 
    I've 
    made 

    out 
    like 
    ban
    dit. 

    Verse 2
    Last 
    night's 
    conversation 
    with 

    a real 
    good 
    friend 
    of 
    mine, 

    Drinkin' 
    wine, 
    wine, 
    wine. 

    Said 
    fifty 
    years 
    of 
    livin' 
    and 
    your 

    worst 
    mistakes 
    forgiven, 

    Just 
    take 
    time, 
    time, 
    time. 

    One 
    man's 
    lust 
    for 
    life 
    brings 

    world 
    reknown, 

    And the next 
    guy 
    can't 
    get 

    two 
    feet 
    off 
    the 
    ground. 

    He's 
    Earth
    bound. 

    Verse 3
    Earthbound; 
    hear 
    the 
    wind 
    through 
    the tops 

    of 
    the 
    trees. 

    Earthbound; summer 
    sun 
    nearly 
    ninety 

    degrees. 

    Earthbound; big 
    'ol 
    moon 
    sinkin' 
    down, 

    think 
    might 
    stick 
    around. 

    Interlude 1
    I'm 
    Earth
    bound. 


    Verse 4
    knew 
    love 
    once 
    way 
    back 
    when--she 

    had 
    had 
    almond 
    eyes 
    and 
    olive 
    skin, 

    And 
    long 
    black 
    hair. 

    She 
    was 
    Irish-Spanish 
    mix-breed, 

    was 
    southeast 
    Texas 
    hayseed, 

    We 
    were 
    almost 
    there. 

    Her 
    daddy 
    did 
    not 
    like 
    my 
    kind 
    around. 

    The 
    true 
    love 
    took 
    the 
    next 

    train 
    out 
    of 
    town. 

    Earth
    bound. 

    Verse 5
    Earthbound; 
    where 
    there's 
    fathers 
    and 

    daughters 
    in 
    pain. 

    Earthbound; mama's 
    boy 
    walkin' 

    home 
    in 
    the 
    rain. 

    Earthbound; like 
    a ship 
    run 
    aground, 

    think 
    might 
    stick 
    around. 

    Interlude 2
    I'm 
    Earth
    bound. 



    Verse 6
    With 
    each 
    new 
    day 
    that 
    passes 

    I'm 
    in 
    need 
    of 
    thicker 
    glasses, 

    But 
    it's 
    all 
    okay. 

    Some 
    day 
    I'll 
    be 
    leavin', 

    but 
    just 
    can't 
    help 
    believin' 

    That 
    it's 
    not 
    today. 
    (hey) 

    Every 
    golden 
    moment 
    have 
    found 
    I've 
    done 
    my 

    best 
    to 
    run 
    right 
    in 
    the ground. 

    Verse 7
    Earthbound. 

    Earthbound; 
    see 
    the 
    sky 

    big 
    and 
    beautiful 
    blue. 

    Earthbound; fallen 
    angels 
    come 

    calling 
    for 
    you. 

    Earthbound; 
    keepin' close 
    to 
    the 
    ground, 

    think 
    might 
    stick 
    around. 

    Earthbound; Tom 
    Waits, 
    Aretha Franklin, 

    Mary 
    Karr 

    Earthbound; Walter 
    Cronkite, Seamus Heaney, Ringo 

    Starr 

    Earthbound; the 
    Dalai 
    Lama 
    and 
    Charlie 

    Brown 
    make 
    me 
    wanna 
    stick 
    around. 

    Outro 1
    I'm 
    Earth
    bound.

    • 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.
