  • Verse 1
    Hey, 
    little 
    song
    bird, 

    give 
    me a 
    song 

    I'm 
    busy 
    man 
    and 
    I can't 
    stay 
    long 

    got 
    clients 
    to 
    call, 
    I got 
    orders 
    to 
    fill 

    got 
    walls 
    to 
    build, 

    I got 
    riots 
    to 
    quell 

    And 
    they're 
    giving 
    me 
    hell 

    back 
    in Hades 


    Verse 2
    Hey, 
    little 
    songbird, 

    cat 
    got 
    your 
    tongue? 

    Always 
    pity 
    for 
    one 
    so 

    pretty 
    and 
    young

    When 
    poverty 
    comes 
    to 
    clip 
    your 
    wings 

    And 
    knock 
    the wind 

    right 
    out 
    of 
    your 
    lungs 

    Hey, 
    nobody 
    sings 
    on empty 

    Verse 3
    Strange 
    is 
    the 
    call 
    of 
    this 
    strange 
    man 

    wanna 
    fly 
    down 
    and feed 
    at 
    his 
    hand 

    want 
    a nice 
    soft 
    place 
    to 
    land 

    wanna 
    lie 
    down 
    forever

    Verse 4
    Hey, 
    little 
    song
    bird, 

    you got 
    something 
    fine 

    You'd 
    shine 
    like 
    a diamond 

    down 
    in 
    the mine 

    And 
    the choice 
    is 
    yours, 

    if you're 
    willing 
    to 
    choose 

    See
    ing 
    as you've 

    got 
    noth
    ing 
    to 
    lose 

    And 
    could 
    use 
    a canary 

    Verse 5
    Suddenly, 
    nothing 
    is 
    as 
    it 
    was 

    Where 
    are 
    you 
    now, 
    Orph
    eus? 

    Was
    n't 
    it 
    gonna 
    be 
    the 

    two 
    of 
    us? 

    Weren't 
    we 
    birds 
    of 
    a feather? 

    Verse 6
    Hey, 
    little songbird, 

    let 
    me 
    guess 

    He's 
    some 
    kind 
    of 
    poet 
    and 

    he's 
    penniless? 

    Give him 
    your 
    hand, 

    he'll 
    give 
    you 
    his 
    hand- 
    to- mouth 

    He'll 
    write 
    you 
    poem 
    when 

    the 
    power's 
    out

    Hey, 
    why 
    not 
    fly 
    south 
    for 
    the winter? 


    Verse 7
    Hey, 
    little 
    song
    bird, 
    look 
    all 
    around 
    you 

    See 
    how 
    the vipers 
    and 

    vultures 
    surround 
    you 

    And 
    they'll 
    take 
    you down, 

    they'll 
    pick 
    you 
    clean 

    If 
    you 
    stick 
    around 
    such 

    desperate 
    scene 

    See, 
    people 
    get 
    mean 

    when 
    the 
    chips 
    are down

    • 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.
