  • Verse 1
    He's 
    got the 

    bon

    homie 
    of 
    a game 
    show 
    host 

    And 
    his handshake 
    is so 
    limp 

    it's like 
    meeting 
    ghost 

    His 
    apolo
    gies 
    are tired 

    'cause 
    he uses 
    them 
    a lot 

    His 
    ex
    cuses 
    are so 
    lame 
    if they 

    were 
    horses 
    they'd be 
    shot 

    He 
    lies 
    through his 
    teeth 
    with im

    peccable 
    grammar 

    In the 
    game 
    of life 
    he's just 

    dreadful 
    goalhanger 

    Verse 2
    Keeping 
    all 
    his option
    open 
    till 

    the very 
    last 
    minute 

    Checking 
    every 
    situ
    ation 
    trying 
    to 

    work 
    out what's 
    in it 

    Trying 
    to 
    nail him down 
    is like 

    nailing 
    water 
    to a wall 

    He's 
    in
    capable 
    of making 

    a com
    mitment 
    at 
    all 

    Like 
    try
    ing 
    to knock 
    in a nail 

    with 
    an 
    inflatable hammer 

    In 
    the game 
    of life 
    he's just 

    dreadful 
    goalhanger 

    Verse 3
    Yesterday 
    upon 
    the stair 
    met 

    a man 
    who's 
    never 
    there 

    He won't 
    be 
    there 
    again 
    today 

    Well, 
    that's 
    what he 
    told 

    me 
    to 
    say 

    Verse 4

    He's got 
    the natural 
    arrogance 

    of 
    an exclama
    tion 
    mark 

    And 
    he wishes 
    his 
    bite 
    was 
    big 

    as his 
    bark 

    He's ap
    pealing 
    to the 
    referee 

    at every 
    single 
    stage 

    He's 
    a fuzzy 
    little 
    bundle 
    of 
    impotent 
    rage 

    And 
    when 
    he 
    ought to 
    have patience, 

    he only 
    has 
    anger 

    In 
    the game 
    of life 
    he's just 

    dreadful 
    goalhanger 

    Verse 5
    His 
    lack 
    of 
    humility 
    defies 

    imagin
    ation 

    And 
    he hangs 
    round 
    like 
    fart 
    in 

    Rus
    sian 
    space 
    station 

    He 
    does
    n't even 
    notice 
    as he sell

    s you 
    down 
    the river 

    'Cause he's 
    one of 
    life's 
    takers 
    and 

    he's 
    looking 
    for 
    a giver 

    He smirks 
    and shrugs 
    his shoulders 

    as he drops 
    another 
    clanger 

    In 
    the game 
    of life 
    he's just 

    a dread
    ful goalhanger

    • 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.
