    Verse 1
    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 
    I 

    dreamed 
    and 
    dreamed 

    About 
    all 
    the things 
    that 
    I 
    was 
    going 
    to 
    be 

    A 
    brave 
    explorer 
    holding 
    court 

    or 
    a 
    really 
    famous 
    astronaut 

    A 
    handsome 
    pop 
    star 
    on 
    the 

    screen or 
    cap
    tain 
    of 
    the England 
    team 

    They 
    said 
    "Son, 
    it could 
    all 
    be 
    yours, 

    you just 
    work 
    hard 
    and 
    pay 
    your 
    dues 

    Don't 
    be 
    content 
    with 
    what 
    you've 
    got, 

    there's 
    always 
    more 
    that 
    you 
    can 
    want 

    Everybody's 
    on 
    the 
    make 
    - that's 

    what 
    made 
    this 
    country 
    great" 

    Verse 2
    So 
    all 
    I 
    wanted 
    in 
    the 
    en
    d 

    Was 
    world 
    domination 
    and 
    a 
    whole 

    lot 
    of 
    money 
    to spend 

    A little 
    place 
    to call 
    my 
    home, like 

    a 
    planet 
    that 
    was 
    all 
    my own 

    Well 
    that's 
    not 
    much 
    to 
    ask, 

    it's 
    really 
    not 

    It's 
    not 
    much 
    to 
    ask, 

    just 
    the same 
    as 
    anybody 
    else 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3
    So 
    welcome 
    to 
    the 
    free 
    for 
    all, 

    the smash 
    and 
    grab, 
    the 
    freeloaders ball 

    Where 
    everything 
    is 
    here 
    for 
    us 
    if 
    we 
    scream, 

    shout, 
    make 
    a 
    fuss 

    There's 
    nothing 
    that 
    we 
    can't 
    afford 
    with 
    a 

    poisoned 
    tongue 
    and 
    a sharpened 
    sword 

    Spoiled 
    children 
    in 
    a 
    row 
    - no 
    one 

    dares 
    to 
    tell 
    them 
    "no" 

    Verse 4
    So all 
    I 
    wanted 
    in 
    the 
    end 

    Was 
    world 
    domination 
    and 
    a 
    whole 

    lot 
    of 
    money 
    to spend 

    Everything 
    I 
    touch, 
    everything 
    I 
    see, 

    fame and 
    for
    tune, 
    immortality 

    Well 
    that's 
    not 
    much 
    to 
    ask, 

    it's 
    really 
    not 

    It's 
    not 
    much 
    to 
    ask, 

    just 
    the same 
    as 
    anybody 
    else 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 5
    So 
    in 
    every 
    heart 
    there's 
    a broken 
    dream, 

    a shattered 
    cause, 
    a might 
    have 
    been 

    In 
    every 
    eye 
    there's 
    a secret 
    tear, 

    in 
    every 
    heart 
    there's 
    a secret 
    fear 

    That 
    this 
    is 
    it, 
    done, 

    complete. 
    Resign 
    yourself 
    to 
    your 
    defeat 

    The bitterness 
    behind 
    the show 

    - that's 
    where 
    spoilted children 
    go

      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 🙂

      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.
