  • Verse 1
    Oh 
    all the 
    money 

    that in my 
    whole life 
    did 
    spend, 

    Be it 
    mine 
    right 
    or 
    wrongfully, 

    I let 
    it slip 
    gladly 
    past the hands of 

    my friends 

    To tie 
    up the time 

    most forcefully. 

    But the bottles 
    are 
    done, 

    We've killed 
    each 
    one 

    And 
    the 
    table's 
    full 
    and over

    flowed. 

    And the corner 
    sign 

    Says 
    it's closing 
    time, 

    So 
    I'll bid 
    farewell 
    and 
    be 

    down 
    the 
    road. 

    Verse 2

    Oh 
    ev'ry 
    girl 
    that 
    ever 
    I've 
    touched, 

    did not 
    do 
    it harmfully. 

    And 
    ev'ry 
    girl 
    that 
    ever 
    I've 
    hurt, 

    did not 
    do 
    it 
    knowin'ly. 

    But to remain 
    as 
    friends 
    and 
    make amends 

    You 
    need 
    the 
    time 
    and 

    stay 
    behind. 

    And since 
    my 
    feet are 
    now 
    fast 

    And point 
    away 
    from 
    the past, 

    I'll 
    bid 
    farewell 
    and 
    be 

    down 
    the line. 


    Verse 3
    Oh 
    ev'ry 
    foe 
    that 
    ever 
    faced, 

    The 
    cause 
    was 
    there 
    before 
    we 
    came. 

    And 
    ev'ry 
    cause 
    that 
    ever 
    fought, 

    fought 
    it 
    full 
    without 
    re
    gret 
    or 
    shame. 

    But the 
    dark 
    does 
    die 

    As 
    the curtain 
    is 
    drawn 
    and 

    somebody's 
    eyes 

    Must 
    meet 
    the dawn. 

    And 
    if I 
    see 
    the day 

    I'd 
    only 
    have to 
    stay, 

    So 
    I'll bid 
    farewell 
    in 
    the 
    night 

    and 
    be gone. 

    Oh, 
    ev'ry 
    Verse 4
    thought 
    that's strung 

    knot in 
    my mind, 

    might go 
    insane 
    if it couldn't 

    be 
    sprung. 

    But it's not 
    to stand 
    naked 
    un

    der 
    unknowin' 
    eye
    s, 

    It's 
    for myself 
    and my 
    friends 

    my 
    stor
    ies 
    are sung. 

    But 
    the time 
    ain't 
    tall, 

    Yet on time 
    you depend 
    an

    d no 
    word is 
    possessed 

    By no 
    special 
    friend. 

    And 
    though the line 
    is 
    cut, 

    It 
    ain't 
    quite 
    the 
    end, 

    I'll 
    just bid 
    farewell 
    till we 

    meet 
    again. 

    Verse 5

    Oh a false 
    clock 
    tries 
    to tick 
    out 
    my time 

    To dis
    grace, 
    distract, 

    and bother 
    me. 

    And the 
    dirt 
    of 
    gossip 
    blows 

    into my 
    face, 

    And the 
    dust 
    of rumors 
    covers 
    me. 

    But 
    if the arrow 
    is straight 

    And the point 
    is 
    slick, 

    It 
    can pierce 
    through 
    dust no 

    matter 
    how 
    thick. 

    So I'll 
    make 
    my 
    stand 

    And remain 
    as 
    am 

    And bid 
    farewell 
    an
    d not 

    give a damn.

    • 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.
