Verse 1
E

Have you ever had a dream

That your favorite baby's drowning
Am

And you grab him by his sweater sleeve

and pull him up on to the ground
E

And you can hear the water slosh

around inside his tiny gut
Am

Push his belly up and down

but he can't cough the water up
E

Suddenly a flood comes out
Am

his mouth till there is nothing left inside of him

He's empty now

There isn't even one small breath
Pre-chorus 1

And he goes limp in your arms

All the people's mouths are moving

Your best friend's rubber ducky
F

wouldn't slip and slide away
G

But he traded his rubber duck for a cigar box
C

to place your paper clips in

Mr. Hooper came to say
F

"Oh, my dear friends Bert and Ernie
G
F

Here's a little something
C

for each of you from me
G

Here are your paper clips
C

and here's your rubber ducky
G

How could I ignore such selfless generosity?"
Pre-chorus 2
F

The human body's made up
C

of good and bad bacteria
F

But the antibiotics and the antibacterials
C

are killing all the good ones
F

And the bad ones just get stronger
C

and become super infections
F

It's harder to destroy them
C

and it's harder to detect them
F
C

And there's something in her blood
F
C

And there's something in her leg
F

And there's something in her brain

  • 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.
