Verse 1
D

In the shelter
A
D

In the morning as the sun
G
Em

was brightly gleaming

I heard her crying out, "What is it all about?
D

I just don't know,
G
D

I can't go back home"
Verse 2
D

Lonely princess,

all the days out on your own
G
Em

Are growing empty

Nothin' is goin' well

If you could only tell them
D

how you feel
G
D

They're too real to understand
Verse 3
G


Too many small suggestions

Ending in forced repressions
D
G

long ago

Too many innocent faces

In too many far out places,
D

something's wrong
A

Let me tell you that something's wrong
G

It's been that way so long,

and it's a shame
D
Verse 4

G
D

On the street car

To the city were she knows that
G
Em

she may lose it all

Riding for just a dime,

takin' her own sweet time
D
G

And knowing well this could
D

be her final fall

Past the boutique,

to the alley down the river
G
Em

People pass her by

She sits on the big gray rocks,

takes off her boots and socks
D
G

Not knowing what she will do next
D

Just starts to cry
Verse 5
G


To many wild rejections
D
G

Ending in angry questions from her dad

To many TV dinners

Ah, everyone loves a winner
D

But she has lost
G
D

No ones knows the trials she had
Verse 6
D

In the shelter

In the morning as the sun was
G
Em

brightly gleaming

I heard her crying out, "What is it all about?
D

I just don't know,
G
D

but I can't go back home

Hell, I just don't know,
G
D

but I can't go back home"

  • 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.
