    • Verse 1
    Stroll 
    to 
    the 
    café my 
    God 
    how 
    time 
    flies 

    And 
    I 
    close 
    up 
    my 
    brain 

    an
    other 
    friend 
    dies 

    Verse 2

    And 
    me 
    I'm 
    just 
    the 
    same 

    Soaking 
    up 
    Broadway 

    Nightlife 
    in Detroit 

    And 
    I'd 
    buy 
    these 
    New 
    York 


    ladies If 
    these 
    light 

    weren't 
    so bright 

    And 
    me 
    I 
    wasn't 
    there 


    Verse 3
    Stagger 
    down main 
    street 

    A 
    knife 
    in 
    my 
    side 

    And 
    I 
    fall 
    to the 
    gutter 

    In 
    tears 
    but 
    with 
    pride 

    And 
    me 
    I'm 
    feeling okay 

    Verse 4

    Moving 
    out 
    of Central 
    this 

    villain 
    knows 
    me 
    well 

    Says 
    he'll 
    spill 
    the 
    whole 
    story 

    He 
    might 
    be ly
    ing, 
    I can't 
    tell 

    And 
    me 
    I'm 
    not 
    that 
    kind 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 5
    I've 
    been 
    searching 
    for 

    my 
    shadow in 
    vain 

    How can 
    I 
    be 
    still 
    while 
    my 

    life
    line 

    remains 

    I've 
    been 
    searching 
    for 
    my 

    shadow 
    in 
    vain 

    How can 
    I be 
    still 
    while 
    my 

    lifeline 
    remains 
    with him 

    Verse 6
    Try 
    to 
    steal 
    a needle 
    Bring 

    peace 
    to 
    my 
    head 

    And 
    I'm 
    stumbling 
    down 

    the alleys 
    I 
    find 
    killers 
    instead 

    And 
    me 
    I'm 
    the cause 
    of it all 

    Verse 7
    Street corner 
    women 
    are 
    taking 
    their 
    toll 

    Now 
    they 
    look at 
    me, 
    I'm 
    dying 

    And 
    I'm 
    growing 
    old 

    And 
    me 
    I'm 
    loving 
    it all 

    Verse 8
    I've 
    been 
    searching 

    for my 
    shadow 
    in 
    vain 

    How 
    can 
    I 
    be 
    still 
    while 
    my 
    lifeline 
    remains 

    I've 
    been 
    searching 
    for 
    my 

    shadow 
    in 
    vain 

    How can 
    I be still 
    while 
    my 

    lifeline 
    remains 
    with 
    him

      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

      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.
