    Verse 1
    Lookin' 
    back 
    on 
    my 
    younger 
    days 

    Life 
    was a play 
    and the 
    world 
    a stage 

    Lust, 
    love, 
    and 
    greed 
    were 
    in 
    my 
    heart 

    thought 
    had 
    to play 
    each 
    part 

    Verse 2
    I'd 
    skip 
    school 
    and 
    get 
    in 
    a fight

    Had 
    a different 
    girl 
    every 
    Fri
    day 
    night 

    But 
    it 
    all 
    came 
    out 
    in 
    the 
    wash 

    Dad 
    always 
    said 
    boys 
    will 

    be 
    boys 

    Verse 3
    [Chorus:] 
    Mom and 
    dad 
    backed 
    me 


    through 
    it 
    all 

    Picked 
    me 
    up 
    each 
    time 
    I'd 
    fall 

    In 
    fact, 
    they 
    called 
    it 
    grow
    ing 
    pains 

    And 
    said 
    all 
    kids 
    must 
    try 
    such 
    things 

    They kept 
    the faith 
    and 

    brought 
    me 
    through 

    I still 
    make 
    mis
    take 
    or 
    two 

    Lookin' 
    back 
    on 
    my 
    younger 
    days 

    Life 
    was 
    play 
    and 
    the world 

    a stage 


    Verse 4
    lost 
    my 
    driver's 
    li
    cense 

    twice 

    For speed
    ing 
    and 
    run
    ning 
    red 
    lights 

    But 
    like 
    all 
    kids 
    lived 
    and 
    learned 

    Play 
    with 
    fire 
    and 
    you'll 
    get 
    burned 

    Verse 5
    bucked 
    the system 

    day 
    and 
    night 

    Smoked 
    cigar
    ettes 
    and 
    tried 
    the 
    wine 

    Thought 
    breakin' 
    rules 
    was 
    bein' 
    cool 

    It's 
    clear 
    to me 
    now 
    was 
    fool 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 6
    [Chorus] 
    Yeah, 

    everything 

    turned 
    out 
    okay 

    Life 
    was 
    play 
    and the world 
    a stage 

    Outro 1

    • 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.
