    I 
    Verse 1
    can tell 
    you 
    by 
    the look 
    in 
    your 
    eyes, 

    your 
    heart 
    is 
    empty 

    And it 
    comes 
    to me 
    with no 
    surprise 

    how 
    you got 
    that 
    way 

    And 
    I 
    know 
    day 
    by 
    day 
    you tried 
    to 
    hide 
    what's 

    deep 
    down 
    inside 

    (You) you've 
    just 
    got 
    to be 
    real, 

    to thyself 
    be true 

    Baby, 
    you 
    (you), you've 

    just 
    got 
    to be 
    real 

    And 
    you can 
    count 
    on 
    me 
    to 
    see 
    you through, 

    sug
    ar, 
    oh 
    baby 

    Verse 2

    Don't 
    you know 
    that I'm 
    aware 
    I wan

    na be 
    more 
    than 
    just 
    a 
    friend 

    I see 
    you, 
    I care, 

    let's 
    let our 
    love 
    begin 

    And 
    I 
    know 
    day 
    by 
    day 
    you 
    tried 
    to 

    hide 
    what's 
    deep 
    down 
    inside 

    But you 
    gotta 
    be 
    real 
    (you), for 
    me, 

    you've got 
    to 
    be 
    real, 
    to 
    thyself 
    be true 

    Oh baby, 
    no 
    (you), it's 

    you 
    that's 
    got 
    to be 
    real 

    Take 
    your 
    time, 

    but 
    I'm 
    desperate 
    for 
    you 

    Verse 3
    To 
    be 
    real 
    is the 
    key 
    to 
    my heart 

    And your 
    lies 
    tear 
    us 
    apart 

    (they tear 
    us 
    apart) 

    (You), we see 
    the 
    way 
    to go, 

    just 
    take 
    it slow 
    baby 

    To thyself 
    be true, 

    I can 
    do 
    it 
    for you 
    baby 

    (You) you 
    got 
    to 
    be 
    real, 
    you 
    need 
    me 

    I 
    know, 
    I 
    know 

    Verse 4

    (You) it's 
    so 
    good 
    for 
    us 
    when 

    we 
    keep 
    the trust 
    baby 

    Let's

    (I just 
    wanna 

    share) with 
    you 
    baby 

    Oh 
    you, 
    it's 
    you, 
    it's 
    you 

    Don't 
    be 
    alone 
    (you), whether 

    the scars 
    leave 
    you 
    baby 

    By 
    myself, 
    oh 
    you 

    baby 
    (you) 

    Verse 5
    There's love 
    to 
    do, 

    there's 
    love 
    to 
    do 
    (don't let 
    our 
    hearts 
    be 
    of 
    debt) 

    There's 
    no 
    more 
    time, 

    keep

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
