    Verse 1

    found 
    a flower 
    in 
    a field 

    A field 
    of 
    cars 
    and 
    people 

    Rows 
    of 
    concrete, 
    paint, 
    and 
    steel 

    Man
    hattan 
    is 
    where 
    it 
    grew 

    Verse 2

    And 
    thought 
    to 
    cut 
    it from 
    its 
    stem 

    And 
    take 
    it 
    from 
    the cracks 

    Between 
    bricks 
    that 
    it 
    lay in 

    And save 
    it 
    from 
    city 
    strife 

    Verse 3

    Away 
    from 
    the 
    city 
    life 

    Verse 4

    Then 
    someone, 
    they 
    whispered 
    in my 
    ear 

    county 
    girl 
    can't 
    be 
    made 

    out 
    of 
    anybody 
    here 

    Don't 
    touch 
    it, 
    it 
    loves 
    you 
    not 

    Don't 
    touch 
    it, 
    it 
    loves 
    you 
    not 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 5
    'Cause 
    blue 
    birds 
    don't 

    fly 
    without 
    their 
    wings 

    Verse 6
    And 
    when 
    we 
    put 
    them 
    in 
    a cage 

    The 
    world 
    can't 
    hear 
    them 
    sing 

    So 
    selfish 
    when 
    greed 
    sets 
    in 

    Verse 7

    Pos
    session, 
    the 
    king 
    of 
    sin 

    Verse 8

    And 
    people 
    don't 
    ever 
    let 
    you 
    down 

    Forever 
    find 
    a way 
    to kill 

    whatever 
    love 
    they've 
    found 

    heart 
    beat, 
    and 
    want 
    it 
    too 

    Man
    hattan 
    is 
    where 
    she 
    grew 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 9
    So 
    left 
    and I 
    let 
    the flower 
    be 

    Verse 10
    And 
    yesterday, 

    saw 
    the flower 
    on 
    cable 
    TV 

    Much 
    prettier 
    than 
    here 
    with 
    me 

    Verse 11

    For 
    all 
    of 
    the 
    world 
    to 
    see 

    Much 
    prettier 
    than 
    here 
    with 
    me

    • 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.
