    Verse 1
    The Spanish 
    girl 
    pointed 
    at 
    me 
    and 
    said, 
    "silencio" 

    Making 
    little 
    gesture 
    as 

    if switching 
    off 
    radio 

    Sliding 
    her 
    fingers 
    'cross 
    her 

    lips 
    as 
    if shutting 
    a zipper 

    And 
    clearly 
    got 
    the 
    message; I 

    didn't 
    need 
    to 
    ask 
    her 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    Making 
    the 
    reverse 
    zipper 
    'cross 
    my 
    lips, 

    open
    ing 
    for 
    conversation 

    Signaling 
    the 
    international 
    sign 
    of 

    reckless 
    contemplation 

    Shrugging 
    her 
    shoulders 
    and 
    lifting 
    up 

    the 
    hand 
    that 
    rested 
    on 
    her 
    thigh 

    Her 
    middle 
    finger 
    extended 
    until 
    its 

    simple 
    message 
    could 
    not 
    be 
    denied 

    Verse 3
    turned 
    17 and 
    swore 
    to 

    never 
    speak 
    a word 
    again 

    But 
    then 
    someone 
    came 
    along 

    and 
    ruined 
    everything 

    It 
    was 
    a strange 
    time 
    in 
    my 

    Interlude 2
    life 



    Verse 4
    People 
    seem 
    to think 
    a shy 

    personality 
    equals 
    gifted 

    But 
    if 
    they 
    would 
    get 
    to 
    know 
    one 
    I'm 

    sure 
    that 
    idea 
    would 
    have 
    shifted 

    Most 
    shy 
    people 
    know 

    are 
    extremely 
    boring 

    Either 
    that 
    or 
    they 
    are 
    miserable 
    from 

    all 
    the shit 
    they've 
    been 
    stor
    ing 

    Verse 5
    turned 
    17 and 
    I swore 
    to 

    never 
    speak 
    a word 
    again 

    But 
    then 
    someone 
    came 
    along 

    and 
    ruined 
    everything 

    It 
    was 
    a strange 
    time 
    in 
    my 
    life 

    Interlude 3






    Verse 6
    had 
    good 
    time 
    at 
    the 
    party 

    when 
    everyone 
    had 
    left 

    flirted 
    with 
    girl 
    in 
    sign 

    language 
    'cause 
    she 
    was 
    deaf 

    It 
    was 
    a strange 
    Verse 7
    time 
    in 
    my 
    life 

    It 
    was 
    a strange 
    time 
    in 
    my 
    life

    • 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.
