Verse 1
Am

She was 19 with a baby on the way
G

On the East-side of the city,

she was working every day
Em

Cleaning dishes in the evening,

she could barely stay awake
F

She was clinging to the feeling
G

that her luck was gonna change
Am

And, 'cross town

she would take the bus at night
G

To a one bedroom apartment,

and when she'd turn on the light
Em

She would sit down at the table,

tell herself that it's alright
F

She was waiting on the day
G

she hoped her baby would arrive
Pre-chorus 1
Am

She'd never be alone
G

Have someone to hold
Em

And when nights were cold
F

She'd say
Chorus 1
Am

The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
G

If we got each other, and that's all we have
Em

I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
F

You should know I'll be there for you
G
Am

When the world's not perfect

When the world's not kind
G

If we have each other then we'll both be fine
Em

I will be your mother, and I'll hold your hand
F
G

You should know I'll be there for you
Verse 2
Am

They were 90 and were living out their days
G

On the West-side of the city

next to where they got engaged
Em

They had pictures on the walls

of all the memories that they'd made
F

And though life was never easy,
G

they were thankful that they stayed
Am

With each other,

and though some times were hard
G

Even when she made him angry

he would never break her heart
Em

No, they didn't have the money

to afford a fancy car
F

But they never had to travel
G

'cause they'd never be apart
Pre-chorus 2
Am

Even at the end
G

Their love was stronger than
Em

The day that they first met
F

They'd say
Chorus 2
Am

The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
G

If we got each other, and that's all we have
Em

I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand
F

You should know I'll be there for you
G
Am

When the world's not perfect

When the world's not kind

If we have each other then we'll both be fine

I will be your lover, and I'll hold your hand

You should know I'll be there for you

G

You should know i'll be there for you
Verse 3
Am

I'm 23, and my folks are getting old
G

I know they don't have forever

and I'm scared to be alone
Em

So I'm thankful for my sister,

even though sometimes we fight
F

When high school wasn't easy,
G

she's the reason I survived
Am

I know she'd never leave me

and I hate to see her cry
G

So I wrote this verse to tell her

that I'm always by her side
Em

I wrote this verse to tell her

that I'm always by her side
F

I wrote this verse to tell her that
Chorus 3
Am

The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad
G

If we got each other, and that's all we have
Em

I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand
F

You should know I'll be there for you
G
Am

When the world's not perfect

When the world's not kind
G

If we have each other then we'll both be fine
Em

I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand

You should know I'll be there for you

  • 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.
