    Verse 1
    Got 
    out 
    of 
    bed, 

    could 
    not 
    remember 
    my 
    own 
    name 

    Condemned 
    to 
    walk 
    the soil 
    amongst 

    all 
    creatures 
    wild 
    and 
    tame 

    Go 
    where 
    I 
    go, 
    do 
    what 
    I 
    must 

    Crawl 
    starving 
    on 
    my 
    belly 

    Licking 
    up 
    the dry 
    dust 

    Verse 2
    I 
    See 
    the 
    light 
    in 
    your 
    window 

    Ride 
    the 
    el
    evator 
    to 
    the 
    sixth 
    floor 

    Stand 
    with 
    my 
    arms 
    at 
    my 
    sides 

    as 
    you 
    open 
    up 
    the 
    door 

    But 
    I'm 
    out 
    of 
    my 
    ele

    ment 
    I 
    can't 
    breathe 

    I'm 
    out 
    of 
    my 
    ele
    ment 

    Interlude 1
    I 
    can't 
    breathe 


    Verse 3
    Alone 
    with 
    your 
    bathroom 
    mirror 

    Try 
    to 
    get 
    my 
    head 
    straight 

    Breathe 
    on 
    the glass 
    and 

    wait 
    for 
    it 
    to clear 

    Clean 
    slate 

    Verse 4
    Meet 
    up 
    with 
    you 
    in 
    the kitchen 

    Where 
    the 
    air 
    is 
    hot 
    and 
    dry 

    Open 
    up 
    all 
    the 
    faucets 

    Verse 5
    Be 
    fruitful 
    and 
    multiply 

    I 
    stand 
    where 
    the flash

    ing 
    sword
    s 
    gleam 

    And 
    I 
    try 
    to shake 
    my 

    head 
    clear 
    of 
    the 
    dream 

    But 
    I'm 
    out 
    of 
    my 
    ele

    ment 
    I 
    can't 
    breathe 

    I'm 
    out 
    of 
    my 
    ele
    ment 


    Interlude 2
    I 
    can't 
    breathe 



    Verse 6
    I 
    start 
    to sweat 
    I 
    can't 
    cool 
    down 

    I'm 
    scared 
    of 
    all 
    the strangers 
    in 
    this 
    town 

    I 
    try 
    to tell 
    you 
    just 
    why 
    I've 
    come 

    It's 
    like 
    I've 
    got 
    molasses 

    on 
    my 
    tongue 

    Verse 7

    I 
    made 
    it 
    through 
    town 
    somehow 

    But 
    who's 
    going 
    to save 
    me 
    now? 

    I'm 
    out 
    of 
    my 
    ele
    ment 
    I 
    can't 
    breathe 

    I'm 
    out 
    of 
    my 
    ele
    ment 

    I 
    can't 
    breathe

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.

      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.
