    Sweet 
    thing, 

    you're dead 
    now 

    You're dead 

    Yeah 

    You're out 
    cold, 
    but 
    live on, 
    now 

    Now 
    at Christmastime, 

    an
    d the whole 
    year 
    round 

    Right on? 

    Right 
    on 

    Look 
    here, 
    sweet thing, 

    let 
    me explain 
    myself, 
    baby 

    When 
    I say 
    you're dead, 

    I- 
    I mean, 
    you 
    know 

    I mean, 
    I mean you're 
    really 
    out of sight 

    Out 
    of sight, 
    totally 
    together 

    But you, 
    you let 
    me down 
    now 

    You didn't 
    even 
    defend 
    yourself 

    You didn't 
    defend 
    yourself 

    Nor me 

    And you 
    left 
    me 
    like, 
    like... 

    Oh, 
    no, 
    can't say 
    this on 
    record, 

    but 
    I'm 
    gonna try to 
    write 

    This little 
    old letter 
    an
    d, 

    and let 
    you dig my 
    little old rap 

    It 
    starts 
    like this 

    Listen 
    to it 

    For what 
    it's worth, 
    for what 
    it 

    Could mean 
    to you 
    and 
    both 
    later 
    on 

    Dear 
    Sweet 
    Thing, 
    Fox, 

    all the 
    beautiful 
    things 

    All the little names 
    that 
    I give you 

    I sit 
    here so 
    aggravated 
    and bewildered 

    because 

    You didn't, 
    you 
    know, 

    you didn't 
    come home 

    You 
    didn't 
    come straight 

    back 
    to me 
    last 
    night 

    No 
    fussing, 
    no fighting, 
    no nothing 

    You just 
    up 
    and 
    split 

    with another 
    cat 

    Of 
    course, 
    I found 
    out later he 
    was your friend, 

    but 
    uh... 

    And this 
    much 
    this morning 
    I was 
    able, 

    I was 
    able 

    To 
    understand 
    that, 
    after 
    very 
    hectic 
    night 

    You can 
    dig the 
    night was 
    long 

    Now, 
    I made 
    it 
    clear 
    as pos
    sible, 

    as possibly 
    could say 
    it 

    Baby, 
    don't 
    go to strangers 

    Come on 
    home to 
    me 

    Now, 
    it's true, 
    it's true, 

    this is 
    a man's 
    world 

    But 
    it wouldn't be 
    nothing 

    without 
    your kind 
    that 

    See 
    now 
    after 
    24 hours of 
    suffering, 

    tears, 
    cold 
    sweat 

    Why does 
    my 
    girl 
    always 
    have 
    to be 
    the 

    One 
    to go 
    south 
    and 
    go away 

    from me? 

    And leave 
    me stringing 
    on a tree, 

    dangling 
    on a string 

    That's all 
    right 

    I'm 
    gonna be there 
    when you come 
    back 

    But 
    I'm gonna give 
    you this little 
    old rap 

    So 
    you can get 
    this together, 

    you know? 

    Since 
    you don't, 
    you know, 

    smoke 
    it in 
    a pipe 

    Just to 
    chew 
    it but 
    understand 

    what I'm saying 

    I want you to 
    know where I'm coming 

    from 
    now 

    Like, 
    I have a right, 
    you 
    know, 

    to like, 
    come 
    on with this 
    old 

    Aggravated 
    or, 
    or, uh, 

    antag
    onizing 
    rap 
    because 
    I feel 
    a little down 

    But I think 
    you're gonna make 
    it all 

    Right 
    'cause 
    you just 
    to
    gether 
    that way 

    Now, baby, 

    can't 
    you be conscious 
    of like 

    Every 
    moment 
    in the day 
    and the night? 

    And let 
    all 
    of our moods 
    be 
    for 
    each 
    other 
    together, 

    you know? 

    And 
    completely 
    out of 
    sight, 

    completely 
    out 
    of 
    sight 
    in every 
    way 

    How can I 
    explain 
    it 
    when we 

    live and 

    Concentrate 
    on being 
    healthy 

    100% in mellow 
    tone? 

    However, 
    yes, 

    know sometime 
    that 
    you aren't 
    mellow, 
    but 

    You 
    know, 
    uh, 
    deep down 
    inside 

    I know you 
    mellow people 

    Well, 
    at least 
    not 
    as mellow 
    as I 

    hope you 
    would be sometime 

    But 
    you know how 
    to do something 

    about that 
    too 

    'Cause 
    you just too 
    good 

    to be 
    anything 
    but 
    you 

    Now, 
    I'm 
    still, 
    I'm 
    still 
    willing 
    to, 

    to 
    help 
    for, 
    for... 

    Let's 
    say 
    help each 
    other 
    and 

    I don't care 
    what it take 

    Even if 
    we have to 
    sleep in 
    a tent 

    as long 
    as I know 
    that 

    We are 
    close together 
    and 
    that vibrations, 

    uh, 
    from 

    Your love 
    and 
    affection 
    and the warmth 

    of you 
    is there 

    Can't you 
    see that 
    this opportunity 

    comes 
    once 
    in a lifetime? 

    Sometimes 
    wanna know why you 

    living 
    on past 
    time 

    Past 
    time things 
    right before 
    your 
    eyes, 

    you know? 

    Mm 

    Well, 
    and sometimes 
    it just 
    seem it's 

    im
    possible 
    for 
    you to see 

    You're, 
    you're not blind, 

    you know? 

    You're just hard
    headed, 

    stubborn, 
    but that's 
    all right 

    Those 
    are the 
    sweet things 

    that makes 
    you you 

    And 
    I wouldn't 
    take nobody 

    else 
    but you 

    You let 
    my 
    flame 
    go out 
    last 
    night 

    You let 
    my 
    flame 
    go out 

    You know? 

    I, I 
    don't expect 
    like 
    for you 

    just to, you 
    can sleep 

    James 
    Brown 
    or you can 
    sleep your 
    man, 

    but uh 

    Since 
    I'm 
    your man, 

    you can 
    even sleep 
    me, 
    James 
    Brown 

    You 
    know? 

    'Cause that's 
    who we're talking 

    about 

    We're not 
    talking about 
    John 

    Doe 
    or 
    maybe 

    Johnny Terry 
    or somebody, 

    or 
    Bobby Byrd 

    We're 
    talking 
    about 
    me and 
    you, 

    or you and 

    if you want 
    to 
    be, you 

    know, correct 

    But I think 
    just saying 
    me 
    and you makes 
    it close, 

    you know? 

    can feel 
    you that way 

    That's all 
    right 

    Just take 
    your time

      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 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.

      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.
