    Verse 1
    don't 
    know 

    just 
    where 
    I'm 
    going 

    But 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    try 

    for 
    the 
    kingdom, 
    if 
    can 

    'Cause 
    it 
    makes 
    me 
    feel 
    like 
    I'm 
    man 

    When 
    put 
    spike 
    into 
    my 
    vein 

    And 
    tell 
    you 
    things 
    aren't 
    quite 
    the 
    same 

    When 
    I'm 
    rushing 
    on 
    my 
    run 

    And 
    feel 
    just 
    like 
    Jesus' 
    son 

    And 
    guess 
    that 
    just 
    don't 
    know 

    And 
    guess 
    that 
    just 
    don't 
    know 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    have 
    made 

    big 
    de
    ci
    sion 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    try 

    to 
    nullify 
    my 
    life 

    'Cause 
    when 
    the 
    blood 
    begins 
    to 
    flow 

    When 
    it 
    shoots 
    up 
    the 
    dropper's 
    neck 

    When 
    I'm 
    closing 
    in 
    on 
    death 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 3
    You 
    can't 
    help 
    me 
    now, 
    you 
    guys 

    And 
    all 
    you 
    sweet 
    girls 

    with 
    all 
    your 
    sweet 
    talk 

    You 
    can 
    all 
    go 
    take 
    walk 

    And 
    guess 
    just 
    don't 
    know 

    And 
    guess 
    that 
    just 
    don't 
    know

    wish 
    that 

    was 
    born 
    thousand 
    years 
    a
    go 


    wish 
    that 

    I'd 
    sailed 
    the 
    darkened 
    seas 

    On 
    great 
    big 
    clipper 
    ship 

    Going 
    from

    my 
    head 

    Then 
    thank 
    God 
    that 
    I'm

    • 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.
