  • Intro 1

    grew 
    up 
    in a 
    house 
    Verse 1

    like 
    this 

    You 
    knew 
    the groan 
    of 
    every 
    stair 

    All 
    the 
    walls 
    seemed 
    to listen 
    in 

    All 
    the years 
    seemed 
    to 
    take 
    up 
    air 

    And 
    when 
    you dreamed, 

    it 
    was 
    of 
    the 
    wind 
    blowing 
    cold 
    and 
    hard 

    And 
    in 
    those 
    dreams 
    you 
    thought 
    you 
    lived 

    in 
    a house 
    of cards 

    Interlude 1

    And I 
    grew 
    up 
    in a 
    town 
    Verse 2
    like 
    this 

    You 
    knew 
    the names 
    of 

    every 
    street 

    On 
    the surface 
    it looked 
    so 
    safe 

    But 
    it 
    was 
    perilous 
    underneath 

    That's 
    the 
    place 
    where you 

    shoved 
    your 
    doubt

    And 
    hid 
    your 
    ugly 
    scars 

    God 
    forbid 
    if 
    word 
    got 
    out 

    About 
    your 
    house 
    of 
    cards 

    Verse 3
    And 
    now 
    I feel 
    the 
    wind 
    about 
    to 
    blow 

    Baby, 
    I'm 
    so 
    scared 

    We're 
    repeating 
    the 
    pas

    instead 
    of 
    letting 
    it 
    go 

    And 
    don't 
    want 
    to 
    go 
    back 
    there 

    Interlude 2




    Now 
    we're 
    standing 
    here 
    Verse 4
    face 
    to 
    face 

    Afraid 
    to 
    move 
    or 
    else 

    I want 
    to prop 
    up 
    this 
    fragile 
    place 

    But 
    I can't 
    do 
    it 
    all 
    by 
    myself 

    'Cause 
    when 
    we 
    dream, 

    it's 
    of 
    the 
    wind 
    blowing 
    cold 
    and 
    hard 

    And 
    when 
    we 
    wake 
    up, 

    we 
    still 
    live 
    in 
    a house 
    of 
    cards 

    When 
    we dream, 

    it's 
    of 
    the 
    wind 
    blowing 
    cold 
    and 
    hard 

    And 
    when 
    we 
    wake 
    up, 

    we 
    still 
    live 
    in 
    house 
    of 
    cards

    • 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.
