    Verse 1
    I 
    save cigarette 

    butts 
    for a poor 
    girl 

    across 
    town 

    We 
    were making 
    marriage 

    plans 

    and some guy 
    came over 
    and took 
    her 
    to 

    a 
    wrestling 
    match 

    later 
    that evening 
    Franken

    stein 

    and the beauty 
    queen 

    sat thumbing 
    through 

    a bet
    ter homes 
    and gardens 

    magazine 

    making 
    plans 
    and 
    hold
    ing 
    hands 

    along 
    came a spider, 

    sat 
    down beside 
    her 

    and took her 
    to 

    a wrestling match 

    I had this 
    dream about 
    these 
    angels 

    I had this 
    dream the other 

    night 

    it was really weird 

    they 
    were 
    playing 
    gui
    tars 

    and getting 
    loud 

    and 
    they spilt 
    beer on Jesus 

    I save 
    cigarette 
    butts 
    for a poor 
    girl 

    across 
    town 

    I 
    spent a lot 
    of money at the 
    pizza shop 

    just 
    to 
    watch the waitresses 
    walk 

    back and 
    forth 

    I 
    go to school, 
    I'm a 
    col
    lege student 

    I have a 
    secret pocket 

    on the inside 
    of 
    my coat 

    where I 
    keep this cigarette 
    butt 

    meanwhile on 
    the 
    dance 
    floor 

    the 
    loud guitar 
    solo 
    seems to be promot

    ing wild 
    desires 

    the 
    music has 
    set 
    their hearts 

    on fire 
    with 
    lust 

    Sure are a lot 
    of ci
    garette 
    butts layin' around 


    I thought I'd give 
    her one 
    more chance 

    so I 
    went 
    over to see 
    her again at 
    her hous 

    and 
    when I walked 
    in 

    there was 
    her 
    and him 

    and 
    they were hav
    ing a wrestling 

    match 

    I save 
    cigarette 
    butts for a 
    poor girl 

    across 
    town

      Best Tuning App Ever

      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.
