    • Verse 1
    A one, 
    two 
    three 


    When she 
    was 
    three 

    Her 
    Barbies always 
    did 
    it 

    on 
    the first 
    date 

    Now 
    she's 
    with 
    me 

    There's 
    never 
    any 
    need 
    for 

    them 
    to 
    demon
    strate 

    'Cause 
    she's 
    like 
    a baby, 

    I'm 
    like 
    a cat 

    When 
    we 
    are 
    happy, 

    we 
    both 
    get 
    fat 
    and 
    still 

    It's 
    never 
    enough, 
    it's 
    never 
    enough 

    It's 
    never 
    enough 

    Verse 2
    But 
    I 
    don't 
    tend 
    to worry 
    'bout 

    the 
    things 
    that 
    other 
    people 
    say 

    And 
    I'm 
    learning 
    that 
    I 
    wouldn't 

    want 
    it 
    any 
    other 
    way 

    Call 
    me 
    crazy 
    but 
    it 
    really 
    doesn't 
    matter 

    All 
    that 
    matters 
    to me 
    is 
    she 

    Verse 3
    Her 
    life 
    in 
    a 
    nut
    shell 

    No 
    way 
    would 
    she 

    want 
    it 
    to 
    change 
    me 

    It's 
    not 
    that 
    easy 
    'cause 

    My 
    time 
    is 
    often 
    de

    cided 
    for 
    me 

    For 
    me 

    Verse 4

    She 
    memorized 
    every 

    pencil 
    crayon 
    color 
    in 
    the 
    box 

    Her 
    blue-green 
    eyes 
    eyes 

    complement 
    the burnt 
    sienna 
    in 
    her 
    locks 

    She's 
    at 
    the movies, 
    I'm 
    on 
    the 
    phone 

    When 
    we're separated, 

    we're 
    never 
    alone, 
    but 
    still 

    It's 
    never 
    enough, 
    it's 
    never 
    enough 

    No, 
    it's 
    never 
    enough 

    Verse 5
    So, 
    I 
    don't 
    tend 
    to 
    worry 
    'bout 
    the 

    things 
    that 
    other 
    people 
    say 

    And 
    I'm 
    learning 
    that 
    I 
    wouldn't 

    want 
    it 
    any 
    other 
    way 

    Call 
    me 
    crazy 
    but 
    it 
    really 
    doesn't 
    matter 

    All 
    that 
    matters 
    to me 
    is 
    she 

    Verse 6
    Her 
    life 
    in 
    a 
    nut
    shell 

    No 
    way 
    would 
    she 
    want 
    it to 
    change 
    me 

    It's

    'cause 

    My 
    time 
    is 
    often 
    de
    cided 

    for 
    me 

    For 
    me 

    Verse 7

    I 
    fell 
    down 
    with 
    no one 
    there 

    to catch 
    me 
    from 
    falling 

    Then 
    she 
    came 
    'round 

    And 
    only 
    her 
    tenderness 
    stopped 

    me 
    from 
    bawling 
    my 
    eyes 
    out 

    I'm 
    okay, 
    and 
    that's 
    why 

    Verse 8
    Her 
    life 
    in 
    a 
    nut
    shell 

    No 
    way 
    would 
    she 
    want 
    it 
    to 
    change 
    me 

    It's 
    not 
    that 
    easy 
    'cause 

    My 
    time 
    is 
    often 
    de
    cided 
    for 
    me 

    And 
    I 
    don't 
    tend 
    to 
    worry 
    Verse 9
    'bout 
    the 

    things 
    that 
    other 
    people 
    say 

    And 
    I'm

      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.
