    Verse 1
    By 
    the mansion 
    on 
    the hillside 

    Red sports 
    car 
    comes 
    driving 

    down 
    the 
    road 

    And pulls 
    up into 
    the 
    drive
    way 

    And 
    a story 
    does 
    unfold 

    Verse 2
    She's standing 
    by 

    the rhododendron

    Where the 
    roses 
    are 
    in 
    bloom 

    Looking 
    out 
    at the 
    Atlantic 
    ocean 

    And 
    in her 
    head 
    she hums 
    this 
    tune 

    Verse 3
    Thank 
    God the 
    dark 
    nights 

    are drawing 
    in 
    again 

    'cause high 
    sum
    mer 
    has got 

    me 
    down 

    I'll wait 
    till the 
    end 
    of August 

    And get 
    off 
    this 
    merry-go-round 

    Verse 4
    And 
    And 
    And they 
    shut 

    him out 
    of 
    para
    dise 

    Called 
    him 
    Lucifer 
    and 
    frowned 

    She 
    took 
    pride 
    in what 
    God 
    made 
    him 

    Even 
    before 
    the an
    gels 
    shot 
    him 

    down 
    to 
    the ground 

    Verse 5

    He's 
    a light 
    out of 
    the dark
    ness 

    And 
    he wears 
    a starry 
    crown 

    If you 
    see 
    him, 
    nothing 
    will shake 
    him 

    'cause high 
    sum
    mer 
    has got 
    him low 
    down 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 6
    High 
    summer's 
    got 
    him 
    lonesome 

    Even 
    when 
    he 
    makes 
    the 
    rounds 

    There's 
    been no 
    two 
    ways 
    about 
    it 

    High 
    summer's 
    got him 

    low 
    down 

    Verse 7

    Checked 
    in 
    to 
    the tiny 

    village 
    by 
    the lakeside 

    Settled 
    down 
    to start 
    a new 

    Far 
    away 
    from 
    the politi
    cians 

    And the 
    many 
    chosen 
    few 

    Verse 8

    Far 
    away 
    from 
    the jealousy 
    factor 

    And 
    everything 
    that was 
    tearing 

    him 
    apart 

    Far 
    away 
    from 
    the organ 
    grinder

    And 
    everyone 
    that 
    played 

    their 
    part 

    Verse 9

    And they 
    shut 
    him 
    out 
    of paradise 

    Called 
    him 
    Lu
    cifer 
    and 
    frowned 

    'Cause he 
    took 
    pride 
    in what 

    God 
    made 
    him 

    Even before 
    the 
    angels 
    shot 
    him 

    to 
    the ground 

    Verse 10

    He's 
    a light 
    out of 
    the 
    dark
    ness 

    And 
    he wears 
    a starry 
    crown 

    If 
    you see 
    him 
    nothings 
    shaken 

    'cause 
    high 
    sum
    mer's 
    got 
    him low 
    down 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 11
    High 
    summer's 
    on the rebound 

    High 
    summer
    's 
    got 

    him low 
    down 

    High 
    summer's 
    on 
    the re

    High 
    sum
    mer's 
    got 

    him down, low 
    down 

    High

    • 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.
