  • Verse 1
    At night 
    heard God 
    whisper 
    lullabies 

    While 
    Daddy 
    next door 
    whistled 
    whisky 
    tunes 

    And sometimes 
    when 
    I wanted, 

    they 
    would 
    harmonize 

    There 
    was nothing 
    those 

    two 
    couldn't 
    do 

    Verse 2
    Em
    brace 
    me 
    you 
    child, 

    you're a 
    child 
    of mine 

    And 
    I'm 
    leaving 
    everything 
    am 
    to you 

    Go 
    chase 
    the 
    wild 
    and 

    nightime streets 
    sang 
    Daddy 

    And 
    God 
    sang, 

    Pray 
    the 
    devil 
    doesn't 
    get to 
    you 

    Verse 3
    I thought 
    together 
    they 

    must 
    sing 
    the moon 
    away 

    thought 
    that 
    they 
    must 
    know 

    each 
    other 
    well 

    For the 
    magic 
    that 
    they 
    made, 

    when 
    they 
    played 

    Wasn't 
    lost 
    between 
    their 
    Heaven 
    and 
    their 

    Hell 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    Then one 
    night 
    Daddy 
    died 

    and went to 
    Heaven 

    And God 
    came 
    down 
    to earth 

    and slipped 
    away 

    I pretended 
    not 
    to notice 

    I'd 
    been abandoned 

    But 
    no-one sang 
    sang 

    the night 
    into 
    the day 

    And 
    later 
    night time 
    songs 
    came 

    back 
    again 

    But the singers 
    don't 
    compare 

    with 
    those 
    knew 

    And I 
    never 
    figured 
    out 
    where 

    God and 
    Daddy 
    went 

    But 
    there 
    was 
    nothing 
    those 
    two 
    couldn't 
    do

    • 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.
