Verse 1
G

The walls closin'
Em

around you and he won't be home tonight
Am

He's out somewhere and gamblin'
D

and perhaps he's in a fight
G

And yes you know about the woman,
Em

and you know there's three or four
Am

Perhaps he's out there laughin' now
D

and dancin' 'round the floor
G

And yes you try to make the best of it,
Em

which isn't much I know
Am

You thought you've had your fill of it,
D
G

you see that it wasn't so, oh

No

Verse 2

G

Now your babies are sleepin' soundly
Em

and you hang your head and think
Am

He damn near broke your nose last
D

night and hardly does he drink
G

And as the wind blows at the windows
Em

and the clouds go by the moon
Am

The walls closin' around you and your
D

sadness still's around
G

And yet you try to make the best of it,
Em

which isn't much I know
Am

You thought you've had your fill of it,
D
G

but you see that it wasn't so, oh

should you ever come around

  • 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.
