    Verse 1
    I 
    was 
    just 
    thinking 

    to 
    myself 
    this 
    morning 

    You 
    know 
    what I 
    thought 

    Just 
    as 
    helpless 
    I 
    really 
    am 

    My 
    hair 
    is 
    turning 
    grey 

    I 
    get 
    a new 
    wrinkle 
    every 
    day 

    I 
    guess 
    I am 
    just 
    a mortal 
    man 

    Verse 2
    Let 
    me 
    tell 
    you all 
    about 
    it 

    I 
    cannot 
    make 
    myself 
    live 

    forever 

    (Never live forever) 

    God knows 
    I 
    tried 

    I 
    can't 
    even 
    make 
    one 
    flower 
    grow 

    Verse 3
    It takes 
    water 
    to do 
    that 

    That 
    feels 
    God 
    knows 
    I 
    tried 

    But 
    that 
    hands 
    on 
    the 

    clock 
    keep 
    ticking 
    on 
    by 

    One 
    day 
    young, 
    the 
    next 
    you're 
    old 

    Now 
    listen 
    to 
    this 

    Verse 4
    Oh 
    I 
    thought 
    I 
    was 
    such 
    a 
    super 
    lover 

    Did the 
    best 
    I 
    could 

    And 
    from 
    my 
    side 
    darling 
    I thought 
    you 
    would 
    never, 

    never 
    go 
    away 

    Verse 5

    That's 
    my 
    soul 
    disclaim 

    And 
    this 
    ego 
    of 
    mine 
    have 
    been 
    betrayed 

    As 
    I 
    stared 
    at 
    empty 
    walls, 

    I found 
    I'm no 
    super 
    lover 
    at 
    all 

    Well, you 
    see 
    that's 
    bad, 
    bad 

    And 
    left 
    him 
    with 
    a scar 

    on this 
    mortal 
    man 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    get 
    on 
    back to 
    my story 
    Verse 6

    Now 
    I 
    don't 
    know 
    if 
    I'll 
    ever 

    get 
    to go 
    to 
    heaven 

    Listen 
    to 
    me 

    But you 
    never 
    know, 
    even 
    I, 

    even 
    I 
    may 
    get 
    to 
    go 

    Oh 
    lord 

    If 
    Verse 7
    there's 
    away 
    I 
    could 
    go 

    I'll 
    leave 
    this 
    human 
    skin 

    all 
    far 
    down 
    below 

    Say 
    goodbye, 
    goodbye 
    world 

    of being 
    a mor
    tal 
    man 

    Verse 8
    But in 
    the mean 
    time 
    I'm still 
    down 

    here 
    doing 
    the 
    best 
    I 
    can 

    Shamed, 
    shamed, 

    shamed 
    for being 
    just 
    a mortal 
    man 

    Can 
    you hear 
    me 
    sayin'? 

    Oh 
    lord, 
    guess 
    I'm 
    just 
    a 
    mortal 
    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.
