    Verse 1
    Mr. 
    Willoughby, 

    whose 
    only 
    luxury 
    is the 
    sugar 
    in his 
    tea 

    Teaches 
    history 
    at High 

    Wor
    thington 
    School 

    His 
    clothing 
    has 
    remained 
    un

    noticeably 
    plain 

    His common 
    room 
    technique 
    suit
    ably 
    restrained, 

    though may
    be 
    too cool 

    Work 
    done 
    in the 
    summery 
    sun, 

    see the 
    cricket 
    ball 
    fly 

    In
    tently, 
    like a strange 
    demented 

    bird 
    towards 
    the sun

    Con
    sidering 
    its flight, 

    he pauses 
    for 
    a while 

    Ah, but 
    Mr. 
    Willoughby, 

    we've 
    never 
    seen 
    you smile 

    Tell me 
    how 
    come 

    Ah 
    well, 

    sometimes 
    it must 
    get lonely 

    Ah, 
    but 
    it's 
    life 
    and 
    life 
    only 


    Verse 2
    Maurice, 
    said 
    Renee, 

    Why 
    didn't 
    you say 
    that you'd 
    be so 
    late 

    The 
    sup
    per 
    that I 
    made 
    is 
    ruined 

    again 

    Is there 
    anything 
    you'd 
    like 

    No, 
    noth
    ing, 
    he replied 

    Stand
    ing 
    by the 
    stairs, 
    not 
    looking 
    in 
    her eyes, 

    so 
    stu
    pidly 
    male 

    All 
    dark 
    and 
    lying 
    in bed, 

    You've been 
    with 
    her again 

    She blurts 
    out, 

    then 
    turning 
    on her 
    side 
    begins 
    to cry 

    At 
    first 
    he doesn't 
    stir 
    but then 

    mumbling 
    his 
    words 

    He 
    reaches 
    for 
    her hand, 
    she 
    shivers, 

    but 
    doesn't 
    take 
    it 
    away 

    Ah, 
    for 
    sometimes 

    it does 
    get lonely 

    Ah, 
    but 
    it's 
    life 
    and 
    life 
    only. 

    Verse 3

    Oh 
    Smithy

    he very 
    well 
    may 

    be nex
    t 
    year in France 

    Inspired 
    for a 
    while, 

    he decides 
    to 
    risk 
    a smile 
    at Mr. 
    Willoughby 

    Who 
    passes, 
    pol
    ishing 
    his 
    glasses, 

    studi
    ously 
    avert
    ing 
    his 
    glance 

    Renee, 
    several 
    deckchairs away, 

    wonders 
    if they 
    would 
    be bet
    ter 

    While 
    Maurice 
    is 
    with the kid

    s out 
    in 
    the sea 

    And 
    I was 
    feeling 
    small, 

    sit
    ting 
    on the wall 

    Looking 
    at them 
    all 
    and won

    dering 
    who 
    will I 
    be 

    Ah, 
    but 
    sometimes

    Ah, 
    but it's 
    life 
    and

    Verse 4

    Ah, but 
    it's 
    life 
    and life

    Ah,

      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.
