  • Verse 1
    It's 
    nothing 
    that 
    you did, 

    you 
    gotta 
    understand 

    You're 
    taking 
    it 
    too 
    fast, 

    it's 
    going 
    way 
    too 
    fast 

    It's 
    nothing 
    that 
    you 
    did, 

    it's 
    not the 
    color 
    of your 
    skin 

    The one 
    thing 
    you should 
    know, 

    you 
    gotta 
    take 
    it slow 

    What 
    they call 
    the shifting 
    of the sand

    I see 
    as 
    your 
    de
    mands 

    When you 
    change 
    you can't 
    ignore 

    What 
    things 
    are 
    and were 
    before 

    Verse 2
    My 
    family 
    has 
    been 
    here 

    for 
    gener
    ations 

    And 
    now 
    I have 
    two 
    children 
    of 
    my 
    own 

    And 
    knew 
    that 
    I would 
    stay 
    here, 

    always 
    knew I'd 
    stay 
    here 

    It's 
    not a 
    new 
    world 
    that 
    you 
    found 

    It's 
    just 
    a little 
    town 

    Verse 3

    Everybody 
    knows 
    who 
    was 

    born 
    and raised 
    here 

    The 
    mayor 
    is 
    my 
    friend, 

    I've 
    known 
    him all 
    my 
    life 

    Each 
    year 
    he 
    and I 
    plan 
    the Fourth 
    of 
    July 

    So 
    why'd 
    he ask 
    you 
    too? 
    You, 

    especially 
    you? 

    He said 
    this 
    town, 
    for 
    all 
    its pride, 

    it's 
    been 
    dying 
    from 
    in
    side 

    And we've 
    got 
    to find 
    our 
    way 

    We'll start 
    with Independence 
    Day 

    Verse 4
    And as 
    the fire
    works 
    came 
    up 

    above 
    the moun
    tain 

    I saw 
    you put 
    your 
    hand 
    up 
    to 
    your 
    heart 

    And 
    I saw 
    the 
    mayor 
    watch
    ing, 

    knew 
    my 
    kids 
    were 
    watching 

    Hope that 
    would 
    come 
    around 

    Big 
    parade, 
    little 
    town 

    Verse 5

    Now 
    the months 
    come 
    after 
    months 

    and every 
    Fourth 
    of 
    Ju
    ly 

    We 
    help 
    our 
    children 
    putting 

    all 
    the flags 
    on 
    the line 

    Up 
    and down 
    the Main 
    Street, 

    every 
    country 
    that 
    we're from 

    Like 
    the 
    mayor 
    always 
    wanted 

    He's 
    been 
    gone 
    for 
    sev

    en 
    years 
    now 

    Verse 6

    It's 
    quiet 
    by 
    the lake, 

    walking 
    with our 
    dog

    How 
    long 
    has 
    it been, 

    oh 
    it's 
    been 
    a long 
    time 
    now 

    We 
    talk 
    about 
    this 
    town, 

    you're 
    the mayor 
    of 
    it 
    now 

    They're 
    all 
    moving 
    here, 

    everyone 
    comes 
    here 

    We 
    like 
    to say 
    we 
    don't 

    get 
    out that 
    much 

    'Cause 
    the whole 
    world 

    comes 
    to 
    us 

    We can't 
    blame 
    them now, 
    we 
    say, 

    we are 
    just 
    a little 
    great 

    And 
    you know 
    that 
    I'm 
    not 
    proud 

    Those 
    things 
    dared 
    to 
    say 
    out 
    loud 

    But you 
    wave 
    it all 
    away, 
    my 
    friend, 

    you 
    wave 
    it all 
    away 

    Verse 7
    But 
    my kids, 

    they 
    went 
    off 
    in all 
    direc
    tions 

    And 
    I know 
    it's thanks 
    to you 

    they 
    have 
    re
    turned 

    They 
    have 
    all 
    this 
    under
    standing, 

    all 
    this 
    under
    standing 

    They have 
    been 
    the 
    world 
    around 

    And they 
    came 
    back 
    to 
    our 

    Outro 1
    little 
    town

    • 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.
