    Verse 1
    Don't 
    wanna 
    be 
    free 
    of 
    hope 

    And 
    I'm 
    at 
    the 
    end 
    of 
    my 
    rope 

    It's 
    so 
    tough 
    just 
    to 
    be 
    a
    live 

    When 
    feel 
    like 
    the 
    living 
    dead 

    Chorus 1
    I'm 
    givin' 
    it 
    up 
    so 
    plain 

    I'm 
    living 
    my 
    life 
    in 
    vain 

    And 
    where 
    am 
    going 
    to? 

    gotta 
    really 
    try 

    Try 
    so 
    hard 
    to 
    get 
    by 

    And 
    where 
    am 
    going 
    to? 

    Solo 1


    Verse 2
    don't 
    know 
    where 
    is 
    up 
    or 
    down 

    And 
    there 
    ain't 
    an
    love 
    left 
    a
    round 

    Every
    bod
    wearin' 
    frown 

    Waiting 
    for 
    santa 
    to 
    come 
    to 
    town 

    Chorus 2
    You're 
    giving 
    it 
    up 
    so 
    plain 

    You're 
    living 
    your 
    lives 
    in 
    vain 

    And 
    where 
    are 
    you 
    going 
    to? 

    You 
    gotta 
    really 
    try 

    Try 
    so 
    hard 
    to 
    get 
    by 

    And 
    where 
    are 
    you 
    going 
    to? 

    Solo 2


    Verse 3
    Flip 
    on 
    your 
    T

    And 
    try 
    to 
    make 
    sense 
    out 
    of 
    that 

    If 
    we 
    were 
    all 
    in 
    the 
    mov
    ies 

    Maybe 
    we 
    wouldn't 
    be 
    so 
    bored 

    Chorus 3
    We're 
    giving 
    it 
    up 
    so 
    plain 

    We're 
    living 
    our 
    lives 
    in 
    vain 

    And 
    where 
    are 
    we 
    going 
    to? 

    We 
    gotta 
    really 
    try 

    Try 
    so 
    hard 
    to 
    get 
    by 

    And 
    where 
    are 
    we

    • 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.
