    Verse 1

    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
    That's 

    the speed 
    of 
    the 
    seed 

    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 

    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 

    Just 
    one of 
    the 
    neighbors, 

    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
    masterpiece 


    Verse 4
    (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. 

    (Chorus x2) 

    1 2 3... 

    be 

    Outro 1
    C...

      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 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.
