Intro 1
F
Dm
G
Verse 1
F
Saw a picture of
girl with the same hair
And I'm posed next to her
G
copping a smile
F
Made a great photo but I never
thought I'd see her again
G
Didn't really wanna ever see her again
F
When I'm alone on the train it was
hard to imagine you caring about
G
On your own
I can't believe you brought
F
her back for me
That day was supposed
to be like spring break
G
But it was dark and cool
F
And the sandbags are dirty,and gritty
under our shoes.
G
Verse 2
F
I brought my camera and have a
shot of us you
And that guy who died down in
G
Philly on the beach
F
Dm
The cyclone made you sick
F
It was a seamless sort of trip
G
But the time we took the tram
down to Roosevelt island
F
You made me feel like I was
G
More like you than like me
Verse 3
I like that
F
But even when I was trying
to score
And we sat on the bench on
that designated corner
G
When we didn't have cell phones
F
And waited for a man and we jumped
on the subway back down town
G
Verse 4
F
It always kicks in and it,
always kicks in and it
Sets your mind,
G
something about the motion
F
It sets your mind, sets your mind
You really have to convince yourself
G
it would be better outside
F
It doesn't seem like anything
could be better than that
G
Riding that train
F
And then you step outside
you step outside
And the sun is shining
G
Can't believe you would
ever go underground
F
That's crazy.
How'd they figure out even
G
how to build that thing
Interlude 1

Verse 5
F
Meet at the bar where
the floor lights up and
Dm
G
Every other square turns to red and green
F
Just to make us go and stop,
G
and stop and go
F
I go sleep on the train
And wake up next to that guy
G
we used to hate
F
But the sound of his voice
And the sound of his giggling
G
Makes me want to be his friend again
F
And it goes and it goes
Interlude 2

Sets your mind,

It sets your mind, sets your mind,
It's hard to convince yourself
G
it would be better outside
Verse 7

It doesn't seem like anything
could be better than that
G
Riding that train
F
And then you step outside
you step outside
And the sun is shining

ever go underground

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.”
