  • Verse 1
    Up 
    till now 
    I used to 

    pass 
    my time 

    Drinking 
    beer 
    so 
    slowly, 
    sometimes 
    wine 

    No 
    God, 
    air, 
    water 
    or 
    sunshine 

    And hon
    esty 
    was 
    my only 
    excuse 

    took 
    your love 
    and 
    used 
    it 

    Verse 2
    Up 
    till now 
    my 
    youthful 
    stage 

    useless 
    rage, 
    torn 
    out 
    page, 

    a worn 
    out 
    gauge 

    dirty 
    shade, 
    big charade, 

    a has 
    been 
    made 

    And 
    honesty 
    was my 
    only 
    excuse 

    took your 
    love 
    and I 
    used 
    it 

    Interlude 1




    Verse 3
    nev
    er, 
    I never, 
    never 


    Verse 4
    Up 
    till now 
    my 
    love 
    life 

    Few sweet 
    kisses, 
    little 
    missus, 

    a fork 
    and 
    knife 

    happy 
    home, 
    hand 
    to hold, 

    land 
    to roam 

    And 
    honesty 
    was 
    my only 
    excuse 

    I used 
    to take 
    life in my 
    own hands 

    and I 
    ab
    used 
    it 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 5
    Up till 
    now 
    used 
    to tap 
    dance 

    Take 
    a girl 
    by the 
    hand 
    saying 

    "I need 
    your, 
    I need 
    your romance" 

    Oh 
    had me 
    many chances 

    And 
    honesty 
    was 
    my only 
    excuse 

    used 
    to take 
    your love 
    and I'd 

    abused 
    it 

    Interlude 3

    Verse 6
    Up 
    till now 
    the 
    path 
    of life 

    was 
    fair 
    enough 

    Enough was 
    fair, 
    all 
    was 
    right 

    And now I 
    know, 
    see the 
    light 

    And 
    honesty 
    was 
    my 
    only 
    excuse

    • 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.
