  • Verse 1
    I'm 
    a high 
    steppin', 
    high 
    bettin' 

    Love 
    givin', 
    I'm 
    a love 
    gettin' 

    I'm 
    a stranger, 

    I love 
    stretchin' 
    out my 
    wheels 

    Overnightin' on 
    the desert 
    strip 

    Makin' 
    time 
    and losin' 
    grip 

    Drivin' 
    circles 
    in 
    the 
    canyons 
    of my 
    mind 

    Verse 2
    I'm 
    an outsider 
    lookin' 
    in 

    I got 
    a perfect 
    square 
    for a 

    circle 
    of friends 

    It's 
    the 
    four 
    of us 
    against 
    the rest 
    of you 

    But really 
    am all 
    alone 

    I'd sell 
    'em out 
    to save 
    my 
    own 

    I told 
    them that 
    but they 

    don't 
    buy 
    the truth 

    Verse 3
    I'm 
    a high 
    steppin', 
    high 
    bettin' 

    Love 
    givin', 
    I'm 
    a love 
    gettin' 

    I'm 
    a stranger, 

    I love 
    stretchin' 
    out 
    my 
    wheels 

    Overnightin' on 
    the desert 
    strip 

    Makin' 
    time 
    and losin' 
    grip 

    Drivin' 
    circles 
    in the 
    canyons 

    of my 
    mind 

    Verse 4

    Well it's 
    warfare 
    out 

    there, folks 

    You're either 
    working 
    for suc
    cess 

    Or to be 
    rich 
    or, 
    God 
    help us, 

    famous 

    Or you're work
    ing against 

    the clock 
    just to 
    stay afloat 

    Got 
    your nose 
    all scraped 

    up from 
    the grindstone 

    You're digging 
    for diamonds 
    and only 

    find
    ing rhinestones 

    Meanwhile 
    it's August 
    and the tax 
    man has 

    never heard 
    of summer 
    vacation 

    You're either 
    working on 
    yourself 

    or you're 
    lookin' after 
    babies 

    Takin' 
    care of your old 
    man 

    or your old lady 

    And the direct 
    line 
    to the hospital 

    just says 
    "Leave a 
    message" 

    See, 
    you can only 
    live one 

    day at a time 

    Only drive 
    one hot 
    rod at 
    a time 

    Only say 
    one word 
    at a time 

    And only 
    think one 
    thought 
    at a time 

    And 
    every soul 
    is alone 

    when the day 
    becomes 
    night 

    And there 
    in the dark 

    if you can try 
    to 
    see the 
    light 

    In 
    the most pitch 
    black 
    shape 

    of the loneliest 
    shadow 

    Well then you 
    ought to sleep 
    well 

    'Cause 
    there's hope for 
    sure 

    Well I don't 
    know about 

    all that being 
    true 
    but 

    do 
    know this 

    The best 
    beggars 
    are 
    choosers 
    Verse 5

    The 
    best 
    winners 
    are 
    losers 

    The 
    best 
    lovers 
    ain't 
    never 
    been 
    loved 

    And first 
    place 
    ain't 
    easy 

    The 
    hardest 
    part 
    is 
    be
    lieving 

    The very 
    last 
    word 
    is love 

    Verse 6

    I'm 
    high 
    steppin', 
    high 
    bettin' 

    Love 
    givin', 
    I'm 
    a love 
    gettin' 

    I'm 
    a stranger, 
    I love 
    stretchin' 
    out 

    my 
    wheels 

    Overnightin' on the 
    desert 
    strip 

    Makin' 
    time 
    and 
    losin' 
    grip 

    Outro 1
    Drivin' 
    circles 
    in 
    the canyons 
    of my 
    mind

    • 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.
