    Verse 1
    I 
    ran 
    fast, 

    life 
    was 
    hit and 
    run 

    I cursed 
    the 
    old 
    men 
    for 

    what 
    they 
    had 
    done 

    Yea, I 
    was 
    a 
    young 
    man 
    once 

    Verse 2

    Crazy 
    love 
    caught 
    in 
    the night 

    Left 
    her 
    with child 
    by 
    the morn
    ing 
    light 

    I 
    didn't 
    care 
    what 
    was 
    wrong 
    or right 

    Cause 
    I was 
    a 
    young 
    man 
    once 

    Verse 3
    Yea, 
    I 
    raised 
    hell 
    and I 
    had 
    big 
    dreams 

    I 
    made 
    promises 
    I could 
    not 
    keep 

    When 
    I 
    hurt 
    love 
    I cut 
    deep

    Verse 4

    I'm 
    not 
    a young 
    man 
    now 

    It 
    ain't 
    been 
    easy 
    keeping 
    vows 

    I 
    still 
    do 
    thing
    s 
    that 
    ain't 
    allowed 

    But 
    I'm 
    not a 
    young 
    man 
    now 


    Verse 5
    I'm 
    not 
    an old 
    man 
    yet 

    But 
    age 
    is 
    chasing 
    me 
    with 
    much 
    regret 

    I threw 
    the dice 
    and 
    time 
    won 
    the bet 

    But 
    I'm 
    not 
    an old 
    man 
    yet 

    Verse 6
    Yea, 
    I 
    raised 
    hell 
    and I 
    had 
    big 
    dreams 

    I 
    made 
    promises 
    I 
    could 
    not 
    keep 

    When 
    I 
    hurt 
    love 
    I cut 

    deep 

    Verse 7

    You're just 
    an 
    old 
    man 
    once 

    An old 
    man 
    dreams 
    of 
    what 
    he 
    wants 

    He wants 
    the world 
    to know 

    that 
    not 
    too 
    long 
    ago 

    He 
    was 
    a 
    young 
    man 
    once

      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.
