    drums] 


    Verse 1
    Since 
    was 
    very 
    young 
    I've 
    realised 

    never 
    wanted 
    to 
    be 
    human 
    size 

    So 
    avoid 
    the 
    crowds 
    and 
    traffic 
    jams 

    They 
    just 
    remind 
    me 
    of 
    how 
    small 
    am 

    Because 
    of 
    this 
    longing 
    in 
    my 
    heart 

    I'm 
    going 
    to 
    start 
    the 
    growing 
    art 

    I'm 
    going 
    to 
    grow 
    now 
    and 
    never 
    stop 

    Think 
    like 
    mountain, 
    grow 
    to 
    the 
    top 

    Chorus 1
    Tall, 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    want 
    to 
    be 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    As 
    big 
    as 
    wall, 
    wall, 
    wall 

    As 
    big 
    as 
    wall, 
    wall, 
    wall 

    And 
    if 
    I'm 
    not 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    Then 
    will 
    crawl, 
    crawl, 
    crawl 

    Because 
    I'm 
    not 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    Tall, 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    want 
    to 
    be 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    As 
    big 
    as 
    wall, 
    wall, 
    wall 

    As 
    big 
    as 
    wall, 
    wall, 
    wall 

    And 
    if 
    I'm 
    not 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    Then 
    will 
    crawl, 
    crawl, 
    crawl 

    Because 
    I'm 
    not 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    Verse 2
    WIth 
    concentration 

    My 
    size 
    increased 

    And 
    now 
    I'm 
    fourteen 
    stories 
    high 

    (at 
    least) 

    Empire 
    State 
    Human 

    just 
    born 
    kid 

    I'll 
    go 
    to 
    Egypt 
    to 
    be 

    The 
    pyramids 

    Chorus 2
    Tall, 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    want 
    to 
    be 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    As 
    big 
    as 
    wall, 
    wall, 
    wall 

    As 
    big 
    as 
    wall, 
    wall, 
    wall 

    And 
    if 
    I'm 
    not 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    Then 
    will 
    crawl, 
    crawl, 
    crawl 

    Because 
    I'm 
    not 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    Tall, 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    want 
    to 
    be 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    As 
    big 
    as 
    wall, 
    wall, 
    wall 

    As 
    big 
    as 
    wall, 
    wall, 
    wall 

    And 
    if 
    I'm 
    not 
    tall, 
    tall, 
    tall 

    Then 
    will 
    crawl, 
    crawl,

    • 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.
