    Verse 1
    did 
    my 
    best 

    But 
    guess 
    my 
    best 
    wasn't 
    good 
    e
    nough 

    Cause 
    here 
    we 
    are 

    where 
    we 
    were 
    be
    fore 

    Seems 
    nothin' 
    ever 
    chang
    es 

    We're 
    back 
    to 
    be
    ing 
    stran
    gers 

    Wondering 
    if 
    we 
    ought
    stay 

    Or 
    head 
    on 
    out 
    the 
    door 

    Chorus 1
    Just 
    once 

    Can't 
    we 
    figure 
    out 

    what 
    we 
    keep 
    doin' 
    wrong 

    Why 
    we 
    never 
    last 
    for 
    very 
    long 

    What 
    are 
    we 
    do
    in' 
    wrong 

    Just 
    once 

    Can't 
    we 
    find 
    way 

    to 
    fi
    nally 
    make 
    it 
    right 

    To 
    make 
    the 
    magic 
    last 
    for 
    more 

    than 
    just 
    one 
    night 

    If 
    we 
    could 
    just 
    get 
    to 
    it 

    know 
    we 
    could 
    break 
    through 
    it 

    Interlude 1
    Hmm 


    Verse 2
    gave 
    my 
    all 

    But 
    think 
    my 
    all 
    may 
    have 
    been 
    too 
    much 

    'Cause 
    Lord 
    knows 
    we're 

    not 
    get
    tin' 
    any
    where 

    Seems 
    we're 
    always 
    blow
    in' 

    What
    ever 
    we've 
    got 
    go
    in' 

    And 
    it 
    seems 
    at 
    times 
    with 
    all 
    we've 
    got 

    We 
    haven't 
    got 
    prayer 

    Chorus 2
    Just 
    once 

    Can't 
    we 
    figure 
    out 

    what 
    we 
    keep 
    doin' 
    wrong 

    Why 
    the 
    good 
    times 

    never 
    last 
    for 
    long 

    Where 
    are 
    we 
    go
    in' 
    wrong 

    Just 
    once 

    Can't 
    we 
    find 
    way 

    to 
    fi
    nally 
    make 
    it 
    right 

    To 
    make 
    the 
    magic 
    last 
    for 
    more 

    than 
    just 
    one 
    night 

    know 
    we 
    could 
    break 
    through 
    it 

    If 
    we 
    could 
    just 
    get 
    to 
    it 
    just 

    Bridge 1
    (once) 
    want 
    to 
    understand 

    Why 
    it 
    always 
    comes 
    back 
    to 
    good
    bye 

    Why 
    can't 
    we 
    get 
    our
    selves 
    in 
    hand 

    And 
    admit 
    to 
    one 
    another 

    We're 
    no 
    good 
    with
    out 
    each 
    other 

    Take 
    the 
    best 
    and 
    make 
    it 
    better 

    Find 
    way 
    to 
    stay 
    together 

    Chorus 3
    Just 
    once 

    Can't 
    we 
    find 
    way 

    to 
    fi
    nally 
    make 
    it 
    right, 
    whoa 

    Make 
    the 
    magic 
    last 
    for 
    more 

    than 
    just 
    one 
    night 

    know 
    we 
    could 
    break 
    through 
    it 

    If 
    we 
    could 
    just 
    get 
    to 
    it 

    Outro 1
    Just 
    once 

    Whoa, 
    we 
    can 
    get 
    through 
    it 

    Just 
    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

      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.
