Intro 1
Am

Verse 1

Am

Lucy was 7 and wore a head

of blue barettes

City born, into this world with no

knowledge and no regrets

Had a piece of yellow chalk with which

she'd draw upon the street

The many faces of the various

locals that she would meet

There was joshua, age 10

Bully of the block

Who always took her milk money

at the morning bus stop

There was Mrs. Crabtree, and her poodle

She always gave a wave and holler on

her weekly trip down to the bingo

parlor

And she drew

Men, women, kids, sunsets,

clouds

And she drew

Skyscrapers, fruit stands, cities, towns

Always said hello to passers- by

They'd ask her why she passed

her time

Attachin lines to concrete

But she would only smile

Now all the other children living

in or near her building

Ran around like tyrants,

soaking up the open fire hydrants

They would say

"Hey little Lucy,

want to come jump double dutch?"

Lucy would pause, look,

grin and say

"I'm busy, thank you much"

Well, well, one year passed

And believe it or not

She covered every last inch

of the entire sidewalk,

And she stopped-

"Lucy, after all this, you're

just giving in today??"

She said:

"I'm not giving in,

I'm finished," and walked away

(Chorus: x2) 1 2 3
Verse 2
Am

That's

the speed of the seed

A be

see

That's the speed of the need

You can dream a little dream

Or you can live a little dream

I'd rather live it

'cause dreamers always chase
Verse 3

But never get it
Am

Now Lucy was 37, and introverted

somewhat

Basement apartment in the same

building she grew up in

She traded in her blue barettes for long

locks held up with a clip

Traded in her yellow chalk

for charcoal sticks

And she drew

Little bobby who would come

to sweep the porch

And she drew

The mailman, delivered everyday at 4

Lucy had very little contact with

the folks outside her cubicle day

But she found it suitable,

and she liked it that way

She had a man now: Rico,

similar, hermit

They would only see each other once

or twice a week on purpose

They appreciated space and Rico

was an artist too

So they'd connect on saturdays to share

the pictures that they drew

(Look!)

Now every month or so,

she'd get a knock upon the front door
Dm

Just one of the neighbors,
Am

Actin nice, although she was

a strange girl, really

Say, "Lucy,

want to join me for some lunch??"

Lucy would smile and say "I'm busy,

thank you much"

And they would make a weird face

the second the door shut

And run and tell their friends

how truly crazy Lucy was

And lucy knew what people

thought but didn't care

'cause while they spread their rumors

through the street

She'd paint another
Interlude 1

Am

Verse 4
Am

(Chorus x2)

Lucy was 87, upon her death bed

At the senior home,

where she had previously checked in

Traded in the locks and clips

for a head rest

Traded in the charcoal sticks for arthritis,

it had to happen

And she drew no more,

just sat and watched the dawn

Had a television in the room

that she'd never turned on

Lucy pinned up a life worth's

of pictures on the wall

And sat and smiled, looked each one over,

just to laugh at it all

No Rico, he had passed,

'bout 5 years back

So the visiting hours pulled in a big

flock o' nothin

She'd never spoken once throughout

the spanning of her life

Until the day she leaned forward,

grinned and pulled the nurse aside

And she said:

"Look, I've never had

a dream in my life

Because a dream is what you want

to do, but still haven't pursued

I knew what I wanted and

did it till it was done

So i've been the dream that I wanted

to be since day one!"

Well!

The nurse jumped back,

She'd never heard Lucy even talk,

'Specially words like that

She walked over to the door,

and pulled it closed behind

Then Lucy blew a kiss to each

one of her pictures
Verse 5

And she died.
Am

(Chorus x2)

  • 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.
