    Oh 
    the 
    Verse 1

    party?s kicked 
    up 
    a few 
    notches 

    Look 
    at 
    us getting 
    loose 

    She 
    leans 
    back 
    against 
    the 
    wall 
    and 
    she 
    watches, 

    tugging 
    her 
    col
    lar 
    like 
    it might 
    be a 
    noose. 

    Verse 2
    And 
    everyone's 
    tied 
    to their 
    thing 

    To their 
    pas
    t or their 
    drink 
    or 

    the date 
    that they 
    bring 

    I just 
    get tired 
    all 
    of 
    sud
    den 
    taking 
    it in. 

    Verse 3
    And 
    I 
    want 
    to lay 
    my 
    head 

    down 
    on 
    you 

    Be
    cause 
    you're 
    the only 
    Verse 4
    solid 

    thing 
    in this 
    room 

    Verse 5
    A room 
    full 
    of 
    changes, 
    strangers, 

    il
    lusion, 
    con
    fu
    sion, 

    I speak 
    from my 
    heart 
    but 
    I'm not 

    really 
    sure 
    if it's 
    true. 

    I 
    wanna 
    lay 
    my 
    head 
    down 
    on 

    you. 

    Verse 6

    Oh 
    they say 
    don't waste 

    too much 
    time 
    planning 

    Or 
    you'll 
    get 
    rug 
    ripped 
    out

    And 
    the 
    only 
    way 
    you?ll 
    be 
    satisfied 

    Is 
    learning 
    to live 
    without. 

    But some 
    plan 
    for 

    the kingdom 
    of heaven 

    And 
    some 
    take their 
    chances 

    and bet 
    lucky 
    seven 

    I 
    don?t know 
    what 
    to believe, 

    I 
    just show 
    up 
    and breathe 
    anymore. 

    Verse 7

    And I 
    wanna 
    lay 
    my 

    head 
    down 
    on 
    you 

    Because 
    you're the 
    only 
    solid 

    thing 
    in 
    this room 

    Verse 8

    A room 
    full 
    of dressers, 
    professors, 

    lookers, 
    hookers 

    If 
    I 
    don?t get 
    out 
    I'll do 

    something 
    I 
    don?t 
    wanna 
    do. 

    Verse 9

    An
    d I 
    wanna 
    lay 
    my 
    head 
    down 
    on 
    you. 

    Verse 10
    Was 
    it so 
    long 
    ago 

    That we 
    sat 
    and talked 
    in your 
    car 

    Your 
    things 
    were 
    all 
    packed 

    And 
    the place 
    you were 

    headed 
    not 
    really 
    that 
    far 

    Years 
    later 
    I think 

    That 
    I would 
    have been 
    much 
    more 
    alive 

    To 
    have taken 
    you 
    up 
    on your 
    of

    fer 
    and 
    taken 
    that 
    drive 

    Verse 11
    Oh 
    well 
    everything 
    that?s 
    come 
    before 
    us 

    leads 
    us 
    to 
    where we 
    are 
    now 

    And 
    that's 
    simple, 

    I know 
    so 
    why 
    can't 
    I let 
    go 
    of the 
    feeling 

    That 
    I'm lost 
    somehow 

    I'm 
    just 
    a ghost 
    looking 
    in 

    Out 
    of my 
    own 
    life 
    just 
    visiting 

    In 
    search 
    of 
    a body 
    to have 
    and 
    to 

    hold 
    and 
    to keep 
    and to 
    sleep
    . 

    Verse 12
    I 
    wanna 
    lay 
    my 
    head 
    down 

    on 
    you 

    Because 
    you're the 
    only 

    solid 
    thing 
    in 
    this room 

    A 
    room 
    full 
    of 
    missed 
    chance, 
    slow 
    dance, 

    cold 
    fate 
    heartache 

    I showed 
    up 
    for 
    a party 
    and 
    saw 

    my 
    life story 
    full 
    view 

    Verse 13

    And 
    I 
    wanna 
    lay 
    my 
    head 
    down 
    on 
    you.

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
