    • Verse 1
    You 
    said 
    your life's 
    a house 
    of cards, 

    and 
    it teeters 
    on the 
    brink 

    On 
    the 
    edges 
    of 
    window 
    ledges, 

    until 
    like 
    a great 
    ship 
    down it sinks 

    Verse 2

    In
    to 
    the sea 
    bed, 

    with sunken 
    gold 

    And 
    words 
    that we 
    said 

    back 
    when 

    You used 
    to 
    think 
    that 
    your 
    life 
    was 
    Verse 3

    precious 
    metals 
    and rose petals 

    But 
    now 
    as 
    you're growing 
    up 
    you're 
    find

    ing it's 
    nail- 
    biting and 
    teeth- grinding 

    That 
    crown 
    you 
    wore 
    with the Rhinestones 
    is 
    now 
    just 
    thorns, 

    needles 
    and pine 
    con
    es 

    And 
    here's one 
    last 
    thing 
    that 
    you must 
    learn 

    too; what 
    keeps you 
    warm 
    can 
    also 
    burn 
    you 

    Verse 4
    Time's 
    sinister 
    sundi
    als 
    make your 

    days 
    hard 
    as city 
    streets 

    You 
    fall 
    in traps, 

    jet black 
    in 
    the hole 
    that 
    your self- 
    pity 
    eats 

    I'm 
    playing 
    cards 
    real close 
    to 
    my 
    chest 

    so you 
    can't 
    see 
    what 
    I've got 

    One 
    minute 
    we're 
    sub- 
    zero 
    and 
    in 

    the same 
    breath pip
    ing 
    hot 
    be
    cause 

    When 
    we 
    are 
    up, 
    we're 
    up 
    and then 
    Verse 5
    when 
    we 
    are down, 

    we're 
    down 

    Cars 
    crash 
    in perfect 
    fashion 
    but 
    they 
    don't 

    seem 
    to make 
    a sound 
    and now 

    When 
    I'm 
    hanging 
    with 
    you 
    it 

    feels 
    like 
    I'm 
    hanging 
    myself 

    Now 
    my 
    phone's 
    off 
    the hook 
    and 
    I 
    lay 
    low, 

    lie 
    low, 
    I go 
    stealth 

    You used 
    to 
    think 
    that 
    your 
    life was 
    Verse 6

    precious 
    metals 
    an
    d 
    Rose petals 

    But now 
    as 
    you're growing 
    up 
    you're 

    finding it's 
    nail- 
    biting 
    and teeth- 
    grinding 

    That 
    crown 
    you 
    wore with 
    the 
    Rhinestones 
    is 
    now 
    just 
    thorns, 

    needles 
    and 
    pine 
    con
    es 

    And here's 
    one 
    last 
    thing 
    that you 
    must learn 

    too; 
    what 
    keeps 
    you 
    warm can 
    also 
    burn 
    you 

    Verse 7
    You 
    said 
    your 
    life's 
    a 
    house 
    of cards, 

    and 
    it 
    teeters 
    on 
    the brink 

    On the edges 
    of 
    window 
    l- 
    e- 
    d- 
    g- 
    e- s, 

    Watch 
    the clouds 
    move 
    up 
    above, 

    As 
    we slowly 
    start 
    to 
    fade 

    You and 
    I had 
    things 
    that 

    cut 
    like 
    a 
    razor 
    blade

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
