    • Verse 1
    I 
    don't want to 
    be 
    your 
    mother 

    There's 
    two sides 
    to 
    each 
    other 

    You 
    gotta 
    meet 
    me 
    halfway 

    Won't you 
    let 
    me be 
    your 
    lover 

    Verse 2
    Don't 
    be 
    no 
    lone 
    survivor 

    I'm 
    not 
    go
    ing 
    anywhere 

    I'm just 
    trying 
    to 
    tell 
    you 

    how 
    I feel 

    This one-sided 
    love 
    love affair 

    Verse 3
    How 
    do 
    I 
    get 
    the 
    man 
    in 
    your to 
    see 

    I'm 
    so 
    much 
    more 
    than the 
    mother 

    in 
    me 

    I 
    don't 
    want to 
    be 
    your savior 

    Forgive 
    your bad 
    behavior 

    Verse 4
    You 
    gotta 
    meet 
    me 
    halfway 

    'Cause 
    there's 
    so 

    much 
    to discover 

    Don't 
    be 
    no 
    lone 
    survivor 

    I 
    won't 
    leave 
    you 
    in the 
    cold 

    Verse 5
    I'll be standing 
    right 
    beside 
    you 

    when you're 
    feel
    ing 
    all alone 

    The 
    only 
    way 
    to 
    set 
    yourself 
    free 

    Is 
    letting 
    go 
    of the 
    savior 
    in 
    me 

    Verse 6
    Baby 
    don't 
    you 
    shut me 
    out 

    Baby 
    don't 
    shut 
    down 
    on me 

    I'm 
    not 
    going 
    anywhere 

    I'm 
    not 
    going 
    anywhere 

    Verse 7
    I 
    only 
    want 
    to 
    bring 
    you 
    back 
    to 

    me 

    Baby 
    please 
    don't 
    shut me 
    down 

    Time 
    won't 
    bring 
    me 
    back 
    to you 

    I'd 
    be 
    lying 
    to myself, 

    I'd 
    be 
    lying 
    to myself 

    Verse 8
    That's 
    the 
    only 
    thing 
    I 
    cannot 

    do 


    I 
    want to 
    be 
    your sweetheart 

    I want 
    to be 
    your 
    lady 

    Oh I 
    want 
    to get 
    swept 
    away 

    Verse 9
    Let 
    me 
    cry 
    for 
    a 
    change 

    Don't 
    need 
    no 
    lone 
    survivor 

    I 
    need 
    someone 
    by 
    my 
    side 

    We don't 
    have 
    to 
    make 
    it perfect 

    Oh 
    but 
    maybe 
    we could 
    try 

    Verse 10
    Love 
    me 
    for 
    the 
    woman 
    that 
    I am 

    And 
    I 
    will 
    love 
    you 
    for 

    being 
    just 
    a man 

    Love 
    me 
    for 
    the 
    woman 
    that 
    I 
    am 

    And 
    I 
    will 
    love 
    you 
    for being 
    my 
    man

      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

      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 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.
