    The big 
    man 
    arrives 

    Disco 
    dancers 
    greet 
    him 

    Plain 
    clothes 
    cops 
    greet 
    him 

    Small 
    town, 
    big 
    man, 

    fresh 
    lipstick 
    glistening 

    Sophomore 
    jive 

    From 
    victims 
    of 
    type
    writers 

    The band 
    sounds 
    like 
    typewriters 

    The big 
    man, 

    he's 
    not 
    listen
    ing 

    His 
    eyes 
    hold 
    Edith 

    His 
    left 
    hand 
    holds 
    his 
    right 

    What 
    does 
    that 
    hand 
    de
    sire 

    That 
    he 
    grips 
    it 
    so 

    tight 

    Verse 2

    Edith 
    in 
    the 
    ring 

    The passed-over 
    girls 
    girls 
    are 
    confer
    ring 

    The man 
    with 
    the dia

    mond 
    ring 
    is 
    purring 

    All 
    claws 
    for 
    now 
    withdrawn 

    One 
    by 
    one 
    they 
    bring 

    His 
    renegade 
    stories 
    to 
    her 

    His 
    crimes 
    and 
    his glories 
    to 
    her 

    In 
    challenge 
    they 
    look 
    on 


    Women 
    he 
    has 
    taken 
    grow 
    old 
    too 
    soon 

    He 
    tilts 
    their 
    tired 
    faces 

    Gently 
    to 
    the 
    spoon 

    Verse 3

    Edith 
    in 
    his 
    bed 

    plane 
    in the 
    rain 
    is 
    humming 

    The 
    wires 
    in the 
    walls 
    are 
    humming 

    Some 
    song, 

    some 
    mysterious 
    song 

    Bars 
    in her 
    head 

    Beating 
    frantic 
    and 
    snow 
    blind 

    Romantic 
    and 
    snow 
    blind 

    She 
    says, 
    his 
    crime 
    belongs 


    Edith 
    and 
    the 
    kingpin 

    Each 
    with 
    charm 
    to 
    sway 

    Are 
    star
    ing 
    eye 
    to 
    eye 

    They 
    dare 
    not 
    look 
    away 

    You know 
    they dare 
    not 
    look 
    away

    • 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.
