    I could 
    never 
    sleep my 
    way to 
    the top 
    Verse 1


    'Cause my 
    alarm clock 

    always 
    wakes me 
    right 
    up 

    And 
    since my 
    options 
    had been 

    whittled 
    away 

    I struck 
    bargain 
    with my 
    radio 
    DJ 

    I said I'd 
    like this 
    song to 
    be number 
    one 

    He 
    said "I'd 
    really 
    really 
    like 

    to help you 
    my 
    son" 

    And then 
    knew 
    that I 
    would 

    have 
    him to thank 

    Because 
    he 
    asked me 

    how much 
    I had 
    in the 
    bank 

    He 
    said to 
    Verse 2
    think 
    long 
    term 

    invest
    ment 
    and 

    That 
    all the 
    others 
    had for

    given 
    them
    selves 

    He 
    said the 
    net 
    reward 
    would jus
    tify 

    The co
    lossal 
    mess they'd 

    made 
    of their lives 

    Verse 3
    He 
    said the 
    re
    cord 
    wouldn't 

    have to 
    be hot 

    And no one 
    ever 
    seemed to 

    care 
    if 
    it's not 

    It 
    would de
    pend 
    on something 

    else 
    that I've got 

    And 
    that the 
    other 

    ones who'd 
    given 
    it a 
    shot 

    Had 
    seen a 
    modest 
    sum 

    grow 
    geometrically 

    And 
    then they 
    had for
    given 

    them
    selves 

    Because 
    the 
    net 
    re
    ward 

    had jus
    tified 

    The co
    lossal 
    mess they'd 

    made 
    of their lives 

    Verse 4
    Hey 
    Mr. 
    DJ, 
    thought 
    you 
    said 

    we had 
    deal 

    I thought 
    you 
    said, 

    "Y
    ou scratch 
    my 
    back 
    and 
    I'll scratch 
    your 
    record" 

    And 
    I thought you 
    said we 
    had a 
    deal 

    Interlude 1



    Well, I 
    told 
    you about the 
    Verse 5
    world 

    (its address) 

    I wonder 
    when they're 
    gonna 

    clean 
    up 
    the mess 

    You know the 
    ra
    bid 
    child is 

    still tuning 
    in 

    Chess piece 
    face's 
    patience 

    must be 
    wearing 
    thin 

    Because 
    they 
    haven't 
    played this 

    song 
    on the 
    air 

    Not that 
    anyone 
    but 
    me even 
    cared 

    And 
    the 
    Disk Jockey 
    has 

    moved 
    out of town 

    The 
    district 
    courthouse 
    says he's 

    nowhere 
    to be 
    found 

    He said to 
    think 
    long 
    term 
    invest
    Verse 6

    ment 
    and 

    That all the 
    others 
    had for

    given 
    them
    selves 

    He 
    said the 
    net 
    re
    ward 

    would jus
    tify 

    The co
    lossal 
    mess they'd 

    made 
    of 
    their lives 

    Hey 
    Mr. 
    Verse 7
    DJ, 

    thought 
    you 
    said 
    we had 
    deal 

    thought 
    you said, 

    "Y
    ou scratch 
    my 
    back 
    and 
    I'll scratch 
    your record" 

    And 
    I thought you 
    said we 
    had 
    a deal

    • 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.
