    Verse 1
    You 
    know I used 
    to 
    call my 
    baby 
    up


    And we'd get 
    real 
    close 

    Just like 
    the telephone 
    was 
    a sofa 

    And our 
    thoughts 
    would mingle 

    And 
    we'd leave 
    our minds 
    wide 
    open 

    Like a 
    big 
    window 
    in 

    the evening 
    air 

    And we'd 
    say 

    "Hey 
    baby, 

    come 
    on in 
    and help 
    yourself 
    to my 
    soul" 

    "Hey 
    baby, 
    come on 
    in and 

    help 
    yourself 
    to 
    my 
    soul" 

    But these 
    days, 
    even 
    saying, 

    "hello? 
    How are 
    you?" 

    "I'm 
    fine. 
    How are 
    you?" 

    takes 
    a lot 
    of sweat 

    Verse 2

    Ain't 
    that 
    a shame 

    Ain't 
    that 
    a shame 

    But 
    in 
    Linctus House 

    In 
    my 
    flesh 
    hotel 

    I 
    don't 
    care 
    anymore 

    Verse 3
    You know 
    my 
    baby 
    and me 

    As Kimber
    ley 
    would say 

    We'd curl 
    up 
    like two 
    dog
    s 

    In front 
    of a fire 

    And 
    our eye
    s would reflect 
    each 
    other 

    In 
    the warm 
    long 
    heat 
    of love 

    Yeah, 
    the 
    warm long 
    heat of 
    love 

    And I 
    would hear 
    the rain 
    falling 

    On 
    the 
    leaves 
    outside 

    I couldn't 
    stand 
    too close 

    the window 

    'Cause 
    I'd 
    shiver 
    if 
    I 
    left 
    her 
    side 

    But now 
    I'd 
    shake 
    if 
    we should 
    meet 

    And I 
    spend most 
    of my time 

    in the 
    bushes 

    Ain't 
    that 
    a shame 
    Verse 4

    Know 
    what 
    you're 
    do
    ing 

    Ain't 
    that 
    a shame 

    Know 
    what 
    you've 
    done 

    But 
    in 
    Linctus House 

    In 
    my 
    flesh 
    hotel 

    I 
    don't 
    care 
    anymore 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 5
    I understand 
    how 
    everything 
    sometimes 

    Turns 
    out 
    to be 
    nothing," 
    You 
    say 

    But I 
    wonder 
    if 
    you 
    do 

    And 
    if we 
    understood 

    each 
    other 

    There'd 
    be no 
    need 
    to talk 

    But 
    even 
    that, 

    even 
    talk
    ing is 
    out 
    of reach 

    Should I 
    say it 
    with flowers 
    or 

    Should 
    I say 
    it with 
    nails? 

    I'm not 
    the kind 
    to 
    push 
    you around 

    But 
    I don't want 
    to make 

    myself 
    vul
    nerable 

    And if 
    I was 
    on my 
    knees 

    You'd have 
    a pretty good 

    view 
    of my 
    skull 

    And I 
    happen 
    to know 

    you're 
    carrying 
    a chisel 

    But 
    in 
    Verse 6
    Linctus
    House 

    In 
    my 
    flesh 
    hotel 

    I 
    don't 
    care 
    anymore 

    No 

    In 
    Linctus House 

    In 
    my 
    flesh 
    hotel 

    I 
    don't 
    care 

    Verse 7

    Ain't 
    that 
    a shame 

    Know 
    what 
    you're 
    do
    ing 

    Ain't 
    that 
    a shame 

    Know 
    what 
    you've 
    done

      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.
