    Verse 1
    Well, 

    hear 
    you 
    are 
    painter 
    now 

    Though 
    you're 
    almost 
    halfway 
    through 

    You 
    pulled 
    a pal
    let 
    knife, 

    you cut 
    away 
    a wife 

    And 
    you started 
    something 
    new 

    Verse 2
    But, 
    it 
    was 
    not 
    the 
    strife 
    of 
    married 
    life 

    That 
    or
    dained 
    what 
    you 
    would 
    do 

    A quick 
    look 
    back 
    through 
    your 
    history 

    Shows 
    the 
    same 
    things 
    goading 
    you 

    Verse 3

    It's 
    just 
    like 
    you 
    to try 
    painting 

    Be
    cause 
    you're 
    color 
    blind 

    Each 
    time 
    you 
    conquer 
    something 

    That's 
    the time 
    you change 
    your 
    mind 

    Verse 4
    And 
    now 
    your 
    new 
    preoccupations 

    Give 
    you 
    your 
    handicap 
    to 
    start 

    Yes, 
    you're 
    happiest 
    when 

    you're chasing 
    clouds 

    With 
    a halfway 
    broken 
    heart 

    Verse 5
    Paint 
    picture 
    of 
    yourself 

    Let 
    the 
    images 
    flash 
    past 

    Don't 
    weep 
    on 
    watercol
    ors, 

    Michael 

    Make 
    this 
    moment 
    last 

    Paint 
    the kid 
    with 
    restless 
    eyes 

    Yeah, 
    the 
    way 
    you 
    looked 
    back 
    then 

    'Cause 
    the man 
    keeps 

    getting 
    frightene

    When 
    the 
    boy's 
    not 
    born 

    Interlude 1
    again 



    Verse 6
    remember 
    how 
    you led 
    us 

    Back 
    when 
    we 
    all 
    were 
    kids 

    And 
    that fact 
    thet 
    you 
    were 
    older 

    Made 
    us 
    copy 
    what 
    you 
    did 

    Verse 7
    The day 
    you 
    bought 
    that 
    cheap 
    guitar 

    We 
    all 
    fell 
    into 
    line 

    We 
    got 
    hooked 
    on 
    mu
    sic 

    But 
    you drifted 
    off 
    in 
    time 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 8
    So, 
    can 
    see 
    you 
    at 
    your 
    easel 

    Splay 
    legged 
    ther 
    you stand 

    And 
    your 
    eyes 
    are 
    darting 
    back 
    and forth 

    Brush 
    flashing 
    in 
    your 
    hand 

    You're 
    reaching 
    always 

    for 
    that 
    dream 

    You need 
    to make 
    you 
    real 

    Leaning 
    in a 
    heavy 
    wind 

    That 
    no 
    one 
    else 
    can 
    feel

    • 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.
