    Verse 1
    Here 
    we 
    sit 

    Across 
    the table 
    from 
    each 
    oth
    er 

    A 
    thousand 
    miles 
    from 

    both 
    our 
    moth
    ers, 

    Barely 
    old 
    enough 
    to 
    rust 

    Verse 2
    Here 
    we 
    sit 

    Pretending 
    both 
    our 
    hearts 

    are 
    an
    chors 

    Taking 
    candy 
    from 
    these 
    stranger
    s 

    Amidst 
    the diesel 
    and 
    the dust 

    Verse 3

    And 
    here 
    we 
    sit 

    Singing 
    word
    s 
    nobody 
    taught 
    us 

    Drinking 
    fire, 
    and 
    spitting 
    saw
    dust, 

    Trying 
    to teach 
    ourselves 
    to breathe 

    Verse 4
    We 
    haven't 
    yet, 

    But 
    every 
    chor
    us 
    brings 
    us 
    closer 

    Every 
    fly
    er 
    and 
    every 
    poster 

    Gives 
    a 
    piece 
    of 
    what 
    we 
    need 

    Verse 5
    And 
    the sand 
    that 
    they 
    call 
    cocaine 

    cost 
    you 
    twice 
    as 
    much 
    as 
    gold 

    You'd 
    be 
    better 
    off 
    to drink 

    your 
    coffee 
    black 

    But 
    I 
    swear, 
    the 
    land 
    it 
    listened 

    to 
    the 
    stories 
    that 
    we 
    told 

    God 
    bless 
    the 
    bus
    ted 
    boat 
    that 
    brings 

    us 
    back

    call 
    tequila 
    even 

    Waylon wouldn't 
    drink 

    Well 
    I'd 
    rather 
    sip 
    this 
    Listerine 
    I 
    packed 

    But 
    I 
    swear,

      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.
