    • Verse 1
    Try 
    to 
    understand 

    I'm 
    not 
    your ordinary 
    man, 

    still 
    I 
    can't 
    deny 

    You go 
    with 
    me 
    everywhere 

    When 
    I'm 
    dreamin' 
    you still 

    share 
    my 
    lonely 
    nights 

    Try 
    to see 
    my 
    side 

    It's 
    not 
    your 
    ordinary 
    pride 

    that keeps 
    drivin' 
    me on 

    It's 
    that 
    lonesome, 

    restless 
    feelin' 
    that 
    you feel 
    under 
    the gun 

    And 
    it lead
    s me 
    to 
    the highways 
    but 

    it keep
    s 
    my 
    body 
    warm 


    Verse 2
    And 
    as 
    I wander 
    to 
    the 
    cities 
    and 
    the towns 

    I 
    get so 
    lonesome 
    knowin' 

    you could 
    be 
    around 

    And 
    when 
    the show 
    is 
    over, 

    there's 
    a 
    holiday 
    motel 

    Another 
    empty 
    bottle 
    and 

    an
    other 
    tale

    Verse 3

    Try 
    to comprehend 

    I'm 
    not 
    your ordinary 

    friend 
    at 
    the end 
    of my 
    life 

    I 
    would 
    pray 
    that 
    I could 
    be 

    Re
    turning 
    to 
    the 
    shelter 

    of your 
    love 

    Try 
    to see 
    my 
    side 

    It's

    your ordinary 
    pride 

    that keeps 
    drivin' 
    me on 

    It's

    lonesome, 

    restless 
    feelin' 
    that 
    you feel 
    under 
    the gun 

    And it 
    lead
    s 
    me 
    to 
    the highways 
    but 

    it keep
    s 
    my 
    body 
    warm 

    Verse 4

    And as 
    I wander 
    to

    cities 
    and 
    the town
    s 

    I 
    get 
    so lonesome

    You go 
    with 
    me 
    everywhere 

    Like 
    a 
    shadow 
    in 
    the gloom 

    I 
    remem
    ber 
    all 
    the good 
    times 

    There's 
    a ghost 
    in 
    every 
    room

      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 🙂

      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.
