    Verse 1
    I'm 
    a bad 
    dream 

    I'm not 
    a night
    mare, 

    I'm 
    too 
    goody 
    for that 

    Let's

    I'm the 
    last 
    thing 

    you 
    wan
    na 
    see 
    coming 

    I'm 
    the 
    reas
    on 
    they say 

    watch 
    your

    But 
    for so 
    Verse 2
    long, 

    I was 
    like 
    a wounded 
    hound 

    Backed 
    into 
    a chain-link 
    fence 

    fence 

    The 
    world 
    at 
    large 
    was 
    just 
    big, 

    mean 
    kid 

    Poking 
    me 
    through 
    the 
    fence 
    with 
    a stick 

    Verse 3
    Ain't 
    nobody 
    goin' 
    back 

    It takes 
    whole 
    lotta 
    hurt 


    Paralyze 
    one 
    of 
    life's 

    biggest 
    lessons 

    Ain't got 
    nothing 
    to 
    do 

    with dessert 

    Just 
    pray 
    to 
    the Saint 
    of 
    Lost 

    Causes 

    Verse 4

    It's 
    cruel 
    world 

    But it 
    ain't 
    hard 
    to 
    understand 

    You 
    got 
    your sheep, 

    got 
    your shep
    herds 

    Got 
    your 
    wolves 
    amongst 
    men 

    Verse 5

    It 
    can 
    be 
    hard 
    to tell 

    You 
    might 
    find a 
    wolf 
    in shepherd's 

    clothes 

    And 
    now 
    and 
    then 
    you're 

    gon
    na 
    find 
    sheep 

    In 
    among
    st all 
    those 
    troubled 

    souls 

    Verse 6

    You know 
    more 
    folks 
    that's 

    most 
    afraid 
    of the wolf 

    If 
    you 
    really 
    stop 
    and 
    think 


    Throughout 
    time, 

    between 
    a wolf 
    and a shep
    herd 

    Who do 
    you 
    think 
    has 
    killed 

    more 
    sheep? 

    Verse 7

    Nah, 
    there's 
    nothing 
    can 

    be 
    done 

    It's 
    just 
    the way 
    it 
    goes 

    First 
    you 
    get bad, 

    then 
    you 
    get 
    mean 

    Then 
    there's noth
    ing 
    left 

    but 
    to 
    grow 
    cold 

    And 
    pray 
    to 
    the Saint 
    of 
    Lost 

    Causes 


    Verse 8
    Some 
    will say 
    I've 
    got 
    no 
    feeling 

    No 
    heart, 
    and 
    surely 
    no 
    shame 

    Truth 
    is 
    that 
    this 
    has 
    been 

    with 
    me 
    so 
    long 

    That 
    I, 
    I must 
    admit 
    kinda 
    like 
    the 
    pain 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 9
    How 
    many 
    encounters 
    do 

    you ever 
    have? 

    Better 
    yet, how 
    many wolves 

    you 
    ever seen? 

    You got 
    about 
    as 
    much 
    chance 

    of seeing 
    one 
    of them 

    As you 
    do 
    run
    ning into 
    me 

    Verse 10
    Still take 
    nothing 
    for granted 

    Might live on 
    the best 

    block in 
    Beverly 
    Hills 

    Be sure 
    you 
    lock up tight 

    at night 

    'Cause you know poor 
    folks 

    ain't got 
    nothing 
    to steal 

    Just 
    pray 
    to 
    the Saint 
    of Lost 
    Causes

    • 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.
