    Verse 1
    Goodbye 
    circus 
    wheel 

    May 
    you rest 
    along 
    the sea 

    have 
    given 
    you 
    the 
    fire 
    of my 
    youth 

    And 
    the tri
    umph 
    o're 
    my 
    enemies 

    Goodbye 
    fair 
    weather 
    home, 

    and 
    your 
    faith
    less 
    factories 

    have 
    given 
    you 
    the 
    blood 
    and 
    the 
    truth 

    From 
    the 
    wound
    they 
    laid 
    onto 
    me 

    And 
    whatever 
    they 
    left, 
    well, 

    kep
    t it 
    for my 
    own 
    heart 

    Verse 2

    And 
    the 
    lone
    some 
    all 
    understand 

    With 
    the 
    choirs 
    in 
    my 
    head 

    And 
    we 
    were 
    orphans 
    before 

    We 
    were 
    ever 
    the 
    sons 
    of 
    re
    gret 

    My 
    baby 

    And 
    on 
    and 
    on 
    and 
    on 

    The 
    al
    phabet 
    boys 
    carry 
    on 

    We 
    were 
    orphans 
    before 

    We 
    were 
    ever 
    the sons 
    of 
    these 
    songs 

    Verse 3
    And 
    now 
    my 
    lights, 
    they 
    never 
    go 
    down 

    They 
    waltz 
    the 
    moon 
    and 
    stars 
    for 
    me 
    now 

    So 
    you 
    can 
    find 
    some 
    local 
    libertine 

    To 
    take 
    your 
    daughters 
    out 
    on 
    the 
    town 

    And 
    can 
    feel 
    it 
    in 
    my 
    aging 
    bones 

    How 
    the sound 
    of the 
    rain 
    mixes 
    up 

    Into 
    the 
    fountains 
    where 

    drank 
    my 
    hero's 
    blood 

    So 
    left 
    you 
    to 
    find 
    my 

    very 
    own 
    hat 
    full 
    of rain 

    Verse 4

    And 
    the lonesome 
    all 
    understand 

    With 
    the 
    choirs 
    in 
    my 
    head 

    And 
    we 
    were 
    orphans 
    before 

    We 
    were 
    ever 
    the sons 
    of 
    re
    gret 

    My 
    baby 

    And 
    on 
    and 
    on 
    and 
    on 

    The 
    al
    phabet 
    boys 
    carry 
    on 

    We 
    were orphans 
    before 

    We 
    were 
    ever 
    the sons 
    of 
    these songs 

    Verse 5

    Now 
    I'm trying 
    to keep 
    it 
    straight 

    Learning 
    all 
    the street

    s and 
    the 
    alley
    ways 

    And 
    learning 
    where 
    they 
    lead 

    Now 
    that 
    I'm 
    left 
    alone 
    here 
    to 
    drive 

    But 
    it's 
    so 
    hard 
    to stand 
    on 
    your 
    own 

    Against 
    mirror 
    of 
    glass, 
    hard 
    and 
    cold 

    But 
    the 
    clothes 
    wore 

    Just 
    don't 
    fit 
    my 
    soul 
    any

    more 

    No 
    the clothes 
    wore 

    Just 
    don't 
    fit 
    my 
    soul 
    any
    more 

    Verse 6

    And 
    the 
    lone
    some 
    all 
    understand 

    With 
    the 
    choirs 
    in 
    my 
    head 

    And 
    we 
    were 
    orphans 
    before 

    We 
    were 
    ever 
    the sons 
    of 
    re
    gret 

    My 
    baby 

    And on 
    and 
    on 
    and 
    on 

    The 
    al
    phabet 
    boys 
    carry 
    on 

    We 
    were 
    orphans 
    before 

    We 
    were 
    ever 
    the sons 

    of 
    these songs 

    Verse 7

    When 
    we 
    were 
    young 

    We 
    were 
    diamond 
    Sinatras 

    Like something 
    saw 
    in a 
    dream 

    We 
    kept 
    our secrets 
    in 
    rooms 

    Locked 
    up 
    tight 
    like 
    a tomb 

    Where 
    the 
    ballerinas lay

    • 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.
