    Verse 1
    She's 
    out 
    of 
    her 
    mind 

    Like 
    the 
    wind 
    in 
    the 
    storm 

    Oh, 
    like 
    the 
    ocean 
    at 
    dawn 

    As 
    it 
    disappears, 
    with 
    the 
    rip
    tide 

    She's 
    out 
    of 
    her 
    mind 

    She's 
    pulled 
    away 
    by 
    the 
    moon 

    She's 
    ripped 
    from 
    her 
    sleep 

    As 
    the 
    cold 
    luna 
    sweep 
    gains 
    control 

    Chorus 1
    Oh, 
    what 
    you 
    gonna 
    do 
    with 
    your 
    emo
    tions 

    Ah, 
    ones 
    you 
    barely 
    recognize 

    In 
    your 
    sleep 
    heard 
    your 
    scream
    ing, 

    "This 
    is 
    not 
    voluntary! 

    This 
    is 
    not 
    voluntary! 

    If 
    this 
    is 
    life 
    I'd 
    rather 
    die!" 

    In 
    the 
    rip
    tide, 
    in 
    the 
    riptide 


    Verse 2
    She's 
    out 
    of 
    her 
    mind, 
    riptide 

    Like 
    mus
    cle 
    that 
    swells 

    You 
    know 
    when 
    you 
    trip 

    Whether 
    you're 
    well 
    or 
    sick, 
    your 
    body 
    aches 

    She's 
    out 
    with 
    the 
    tide 

    Gone 
    to 
    prisoner's 
    dance 

    Where 
    monkey's 
    her 
    date 

    Eating 
    limbs 
    off 
    plate 
    with 
    spoon 

    Chorus 2
    Oh, 
    what 
    you 
    gonna 
    do 
    with 
    your 
    emotions 

    Said 
    the 
    seagull 
    to 
    the 
    loon 

    What 
    you 
    gonna 
    do 
    with 
    your 
    emotions 

    She 
    said 
    "Please 
    wake 
    me 
    up" 

    She 
    said 
    "Don't 
    touch 
    me 
    now" 

    She 
    said 
    "I 
    wish 
    was 
    dead" 

    With 
    the 
    rip
    tide 


    Verse 3
    She's 
    out 
    of 
    her 
    mind 

    Riptide, 
    you 
    always 
    win 

    It 
    happens 
    over 
    and 
    over 
    again 

    Rip
    tide 

    She's 
    out 
    of 
    her 
    mind 

    Like 
    hurricane's 
    rain 

    She 
    does 
    not 
    stand 
    chance 

    At 
    this 
    luna 
    dance, 
    rip
    tide 

    was 
    thinking 
    of 
    Van 
    Gogh's 
    last 
    painting 

    The 
    wheatfields 
    and 
    the 
    crows 

    Is 
    that 
    perhaps 
    what 
    you've 
    been 
    feeling 

    When 
    you 
    see 
    the 
    ground 

    As 
    you 
    fall 
    from 
    the 
    sky 

    As 
    the 
    floors 
    disappears 

    from 
    beneath 
    your 
    feet 

    Rip
    tide 

    Outro 1
    She's 
    going 
    out 
    of 
    her 
    mind 

    Out 
    with 
    the 
    tide 

    Out 
    of 
    her 
    mind 

    Riptide 

    She's 
    going 
    out 
    of 
    her 
    mind 

    With 
    the 
    rip
    tide 

    She's 
    going 
    out 
    of 
    her 
    mind 

    Ah, 
    riptide

    • 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.
