    Verse 1
    Living 
    on them 
    pills, 

    he was 
    lying 
    in 
    squalor 

    That's 
    the life 
    of the 
    late 
    night 
    bar 
    crawler 

    Most 
    outrageous 
    man 
    met 
    he once 
    said 

    could take 
    belly 
    full 
    of lead 

    and wouldn't 
    wind 
    up 
    dead 

    Verse 2
    He 
    wanted 
    his song 
    to make 
    you 
    shiver 

    little 
    like 
    there's 
    a ghost 

    coming 
    your 
    way 

    Have 
    you ever 
    been told 

    that something's 
    forever 

    And had 
    your heart 
    broken 

    the very 
    next 
    day? 

    Verse 3
    Shout 
    it 
    from 
    the 
    rooftop 

    You 
    can 
    shout 
    it 
    from 
    the 
    rooftop 

    But 
    you 
    can't 
    tell 
    it 
    to 
    the 
    paper 

    They've already 
    been 
    paid 

    Verse 4
    To 
    be ten 
    different 
    people 
    that's 
    easy 

    It's 
    easier 
    than 
    being 
    your
    self 

    I'm the 
    one who 
    pretend

    that I'm not 
    happy 

    Picking 
    life 
    off the shelf 

    He 
    taught 
    me 
    Verse 5
    time 
    wasted 

    is 
    time 
    spent 
    well 

    The 
    a man's 
    dead 
    if he 
    doesn't 

    have 
    story 
    to tell 

    Dead 
    if he's 
    lying 
    in a 

    dirty 
    jail 
    cell 

    Verse 6
    'Cause 
    when 
    your 
    down 
    they'll 

    kick 
    you 

    The jury 
    doesn't 
    matter 
    at 
    all, 

    the 
    jury 
    doesn't 
    matter 
    at 
    all 

    Tell 
    me 
    officer 
    when 
    your 
    baton 
    kissed 
    me 
    did 
    it make 
    you feel 
    tall? 

    Interlude 1



    And 
    no 
    one 
    asked 
    Verse 7
    you 

    where 
    you 
    come 
    from 

    No 
    one 
    told 
    you 
    of 
    these 
    times 

    No 
    one 
    asked 
    you 
    where 
    you 
    come 
    from 

    No 
    one 
    told 
    you 
    of 
    these 
    times 


    Verse 8
    This 
    is your 
    life 
    don't 
    waste 
    it 

    Why don't 
    you 
    run 
    away? 

    man to 
    reckon 
    with, 

    he knows 
    how to 
    persuade 

    You won't 
    get a 
    sun 
    tan 
    in this 

    government 
    shade 

    Does 
    it make 
    you 
    quiver 
    little 
    Verse 9

    the way 
    they say 

    That 
    we're gonna 
    fuck 
    you 

    Take 
    little 
    bit of 
    freedom 
    away 

    every
    day 

    Verse 10
    You can shout 
    it 
    from 
    the 
    rooftops 

    You 
    can 
    shout 
    it 
    from 
    the 
    rooftops 

    You 
    can 
    shout 
    it 
    from 
    the 
    rooftops 

    But 
    you 
    can't 
    tell 
    it 
    to 
    the 
    paper 

    They've 
    already been 
    paid

    • 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.
