    This 
    would not 
    Verse 1

    have happened 
    if I 
    hadn't 
    missed 
    my plane. 

    I would've 
    been 
    there when 
    they 
    told 

    you 
    I'm the 
    rat within 
    the 
    grain. 

    Within 
    this 
    big mis
    understanding 
    now, 

    I'm being 
    misunderstood. 

    I'm 
    thinkin' 
    someone's trying 

    to fu*k with 
    me and set 
    fire to 
    my wood. 

    Well I 
    wouldn't 
    Verse 2
    want you 
    to 

    want 
    to 
    be wanted 
    by 
    me. 

    wouldn't 
    want 
    you 
    to worry 

    you'd be drowned 
    within my sea. 

    I only 
    wanted 
    to be wonderful, 

    an
    wonderful is true. 

    In 
    truth, 
    I only 
    really 
    wanted 

    to 
    be 
    wanted 
    by 
    you. 

    Verse 3
    It's 
    stupid 
    situation 

    now where 
    everything 
    goes wrong. 

    If 
    you 
    can't 
    tell if 
    am 

    lying: then you 
    do not 
    belong. 

    In 
    my bed, 
    go rest 
    your 
    head 
    upon 
    the 

    bones 
    of 
    big
    ger man. 

    And he can cover 
    you with 
    rockwool and you 

    can close 
    up 
    like 
    clam. 

    Verse 4
    'cause I wouldn't 
    want 

    you to want 
    to 
    be wanted 
    by me. 

    wouldn't 
    want you 
    to 
    worry you'd 

    be drowned 
    within my 
    sea. 

    I only 
    wanted 
    to be wonderful, 

    and 
    won
    derful 
    is 
    true. 

    In truth, 
    I only really 
    wanted 
    to 

    be wanted 
    by you. 

    So go play 
    with 
    your 
    piano 
    and write 
    Verse 5

    mediocre 
    song 

    About this 
    shell of mediocrity 

    And 
    pretend there's 
    nothing 
    wrong. 

    never 
    thought 
    you were 

    a chick
    en 
    sh*t: 

    I never 
    thought of you at 
    all. 

    Until you 
    asked me 
    to be part of 

    it 

    And now you're 
    showing 

    me a wall. 

    Verse 6
    I wouldn't 
    want you to 
    want to 

    be wanted 
    by 
    me. 

    I wouldn't 
    want you 
    to worry 

    you'd 
    be drowned within 
    my sea. 

    only 
    wanted to be 
    wonderful 

    an
    wonderful 
    is 
    true. 

    In truth, 
    I only really 
    wanted 

    to be 
    wanted 
    by 
    you. 

    In truth, 
    only really 
    Verse 7
    wanted 
    to 

    be wanted by 
    you. 

    Lada 
    da 
    da 
    Verse 8
    etc... 

    In truth, I 
    only really 
    wanted 
    to be wanted 
    Verse 9
    by 
    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.
