    Verse 1
    So 

    we were down 
    in Brazil 
    an
    d, 
    man 

    That 
    place 
    is wild 

    We were 
    in Rio de 
    Janeiro, 
    and uh 

    We 
    had this, 
    this 
    sort of, uh 

    Security- 
    guard 
    type guy 
    and 
    he was 

    Supposed 
    to 
    take 
    us around 

    I said 
    "Hey, could, 
    you know 

    Could you take 
    us to 
    the, 

    the 
    favelas and 

    Show us 
    the prosti
    tution, 
    and the 
    drug 

    Deals, 
    and the 
    night fights, 

    and 
    theyou know 

    The street 
    life 

    Of your town?" 
    And he said 
    "Sure" 
    So we 

    We pull 
    up to 
    this hook
    er 
    and 

    She's 
    wearing 
    some kind 
    of 

    A, 
    bright 
    green 
    miniskirt, and it 

    Turns 
    out 
    it's 

    transsexual, and 
    he 

    Says "Get 
    over 
    here!" And she 

    comes 

    Over and 
    she 
    thinks she's 
    busted 

    But 
    she's not 
    busted 
    naw, 

    she's not 
    bus
    ted 

    He 
    just wanted 
    to smack 

    Her on 
    the ass a 
    few times 

    And 
    say, "Hey, what's 
    up, girl?" 

    Verse 2
    Get out 
    of 
    bed 
    and I 
    clear 
    up my 
    head 
    and 

    don't 
    want to 
    go 
    but I 
    do it 
    instead 

    We 
    are 
    dreams 
    with
    in 
    dream 

    Get into 
    bed 
    and I 
    turn 
    off my 
    head 

    And 
    I started 
    to 
    float 

    Was it 
    something 
    she 
    said? 

    We 
    are 
    dreams 
    with
    in 
    dream 




    Verse 3
    So I 
    remember 
    we got 

    our driver
    's license 

    And 
    my friend 
    Hillel 
    had this 

    little 

    Datsun painted 
    green, 
    and 

    Hollywood 
    would get so 

    crazy 
    in the 
    winter 

    The 
    rains 
    would come 
    and the 

    Hill
    s would 
    just kind 
    of melt 
    down 

    In
    to the 
    city 
    lights, 
    and, 
    well, 
    you 

    Know, 
    we'd smoke 
    weed 
    and we'd 

    Go up 
    in the hills, 

    and 
    we'd listen 

    To progressive 
    rock 
    music, 
    and just 
    kind 

    Of 
    trip out 
    and 
    well, 
    we would 

    Dream, 
    you know, 
    we would dream 

    And we would talk 
    about 

    what we wanted 

    To 
    do, and 
    we would 
    talk about 

    Girls 
    and 
    music 
    and, 
    you know, 
    hillel 

    Wanted 
    to be 
    a rock 
    star 

    And 
    I didn't even know 

    what that 
    was 

    I was like, 
    "Whatever 
    you want 
    to 

    Do, man, 
    I'm coming 
    with you 

    I'm right 
    with you 
    my friend" 

    Verse 4
    Get out 
    of 
    bed 
    and I 
    clear 
    up my 
    head 
    and 

    don't 
    want to 
    go 
    but I 
    do it 
    in
    stead 

    We 
    are 
    dreams 
    with
    in 
    dream 

    Get into 
    bed 
    and I 
    turn 
    off my 
    head 

    And 
    I started 
    to 
    float 

    Was it 
    something 
    she 
    said? 

    We 
    are 
    dreams 
    with
    in 

    dream 



    Verse 5
    Why 
    in the 
    world 
    would you 
    want 
    it to be? 

    Why would 
    you want 
    to take 
    it so 

    So 
    literally? 

    All 
    these things 
    that come 

    down 
    from the sky 

    Rain
    ing upon 
    your 
    head 

    Make 
    you stop 
    and 
    won
    der 
    why, 

    ah! 

    Can
    't they 
    just spell 
    it out, 

    make 
    it clear 

    Make 
    it easy 
    to read 

    For 
    the simple 
    man 
    like 
    me? 

    I don't 
    think 
    so 

    I reach 
    out to 
    my fam
    ily and 
    I say 

    "It's 
    not about 
    religion 

    and the 
    God 
    sit
    ting 

    In a chair 
    in the sky 

    With 
    a punishing 
    hand, 
    no 

    It's about 
    heaven 
    in 
    your 
    heart" 

    Now 
    when can 
    we 
    start? 

    wanna 
    choose love 
    instead 
    of fear 

    Won't 
    you 
    come 
    right 
    now, 
    over 
    here 

    And be 
    part of 
    my, ah 

    Let 
    me make it 
    easier this 
    time, 
    I love 
    you

    • 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.
