    Verse 1
    can't 
    take 
    the criticism 

    I'm 
    heating 
    up 
    with 
    cynicism 

    All 
    the colors 
    in 
    the prism 

    entering 
    my 
    eye

    Still 
    can't 
    change 
    my mind 

    Verse 2

    I'm 
    a stubborn 
    goat 
    getting 
    older 

    A cube 
    of 
    ice 
    getting 
    colder 

    A frozen 
    heart 
    and 
    frozen 
    shoulders, 

    that 
    is 
    what 
    I've 
    got 

    A sweetheart 
    am 
    not 

    Verse 3

    Now 
    I'll 
    soften 
    when 
    it 
    pays 
    the 
    bills 

    I'll 
    love 
    you 
    in 
    ex
    change 
    for 
    thrills 

    Our 
    service 
    calls, 
    with
    drawal 
    will 
    kill 

    can smell 
    fresh 
    blood 
    from 
    miles 
    away 

    Verse 4

    can't 
    be 
    locked 
    up 
    this 
    way, 

    can't 
    be 
    locked 
    up 
    this 
    way 

    I can't 
    be 
    locked 
    up 
    like 
    this, 
    oh, 
    no, 

    can't 
    be 
    locked 
    up 
    this 
    way 

    Verse 5

    Now 
    have 
    been 
    their 
    slave 

    but 
    I'm 
    tired 
    of 
    workin' 

    jackhammer tired 
    of 
    jerking 

    I'm 
    booty-shaker 
    tired 
    tired 
    of 

    twerking, you 
    can 
    laugh 
    all 
    you 
    want 

    Soon 
    enough, 
    though, 
    I'll 
    be 
    gone 

    Verse 6

    I'm 
    dying 
    fly 
    on 
    the 
    wall 

    I'm 
    teenage 
    girl 
    who just 
    won't 
    call 

    I'm 
    deflated 
    basketball, 

    no 
    needle 
    to 
    be 
    found 

    And 
    just 
    want 
    to be 
    around 

    Verse 7
    So 
    can 
    roam, 
    so 
    can 
    bounce 

    So 
    can 
    roam 
    out 
    of 

    this 
    town

    Verse 9

    Now 
    I'm 
    the worst 
    ship 

    that 
    was 
    ever 
    built 

    Started 
    sinking 
    soon 
    as 

    the 
    champagne 
    spilled 

    All 
    the 
    dirty 
    secrets 
    in 
    my 
    quilt, 

    they 
    won't 
    come 
    out 
    in 
    the 
    wash 

    Some
    body 
    help, 
    my 
    gosh 

    Verse 10
    I'm 
    beating 
    heart 
    off 
    the 
    beaten 
    path 

    The god 
    of shame, 
    fear 
    my 
    wrath 

    Can 
    my 
    filthy 
    soul 
    take 

    bath 
    in 
    the 
    light 
    of 
    you? 

    In 
    the 
    light 
    of 
    truth? 

    In 
    the 
    light 
    of 
    you 

    No, 
    can

    • 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.
