    Verse 1
    He struggled 

    so 
    hard 
    to be 
    king 

    Working 
    night 
    and 
    day 

    Dreaming 
    of 
    only 
    one 
    thing 

    Never 
    a hol
    iday 

    Somewhere 
    along 
    the way 

    He 
    forgot 
    she 
    was 
    only 
    a girl 

    Now 
    his 
    kingdom 
    has 
    fallen 

    And 
    it's 
    really 
    quite 
    tragic 
    tale 

    Cause 
    he 
    built 
    a castle 
    to 

    harbor 
    his 
    queen 

    But the 
    queen 
    claimed 
    he built 

    her 
    a jail 

    Verse 2
    He struggled 
    so 
    hard 
    to be 

    king 

    He wanted 
    everything 

    He built 
    her 
    a house 
    by 
    the sea 

    Just 
    to keep 
    her 
    in 

    Somewhere 
    along 
    the way 

    He 
    forgot 
    she 
    needed 
    a friend 

    Now 
    his 
    kingdom 
    has 
    fallen 

    And 
    it's 
    really 
    quite 
    tragic 
    tale 

    Cause 
    he 
    built 
    a castle 
    to 

    harbor 
    his 
    queen 

    And the 
    queen 
    claimed 
    he built 
    her 
    a jail 

    It 
    Verse 3
    happened 
    so quickly 

    be
    fore 
    he could 
    know 

    She was 
    gone, 
    far 
    gone 

    Far 
    from 
    the castle, 

    the 
    diamonds 
    and 
    things 

    She 
    had 
    worn 
    to 
    the ball 

    There 
    was 
    a note 
    that 
    she 

    carefully 
    wrote 

    Signed 
    it 
    best 
    wishes 
    to 
    all 

    Oh 
    you struggled 
    so 
    hard 

    to 
    be king 

    Working 
    night 
    and 
    day 

    Dreaming 
    of 
    only 
    one 
    thing, 

    never 
    a hol
    iday 

    Somewhere 
    along 
    the 
    way 

    You 
    forgot 
    that 
    needed 
    man 

    Verse 4

    When they 
    found 
    him 
    they 
    took 

    him 
    back 
    where 
    he 
    belonged 

    And his 
    fam
    ily and 
    friend

    saw 
    him 
    annually 

    And they 
    say 
    it's 
    a shame 
    what's 

    become 
    of 
    the 
    king

    • 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.
