I kept an angel

In a box beneath my bed

Little beast had broke her jaw

They said I had to put her back

That I had to put her back

exactly where I found her

But I know, I saw

That she was doing good
Am

Until the cat got her
Verse 2

And I came to write a letter

But my pen was full of hymns
F

I came to drown a sorrow
Am
F
Am

It seems they've learned to swim

Mouth full of pins and heart

pumping gasoline

It's late

I'm still at the sewing machine

Stitching up strays fifteen years

Am

But this one's mean

Well I fixed you up

When they said you were past repair
G
Am

And I stitched you up

I thread a needle with my hair

And I fixed you up

When you were still a common sparrow

But look who's on the shoulder now

When the road goes narrow

With soft drugs and seam ripper

Tough love and tape measure

Stitching up boys is different that way

Verse 5
Am

When I ran out of thread

I couldn't let go

But that's not sewing, that's
F

That's just poking holes
Am

And it's a strange breed

A different kind of creature

Looks for love through the eye of a needle

Verse 7
Am

Take a seat and let me get a look at your

face

Busted, back's been broke for days

Not much, little something for the pain

Don't fuss,

or I'll never get a seam to lay straight

And I keep it clean as I can with just

Just the machine and the mattress plus

I never did need for a pattern, just

Some good restraints and my

bedside manner

Verse 8

When I ran out of thread, I couldn't let go

But that's not sewing, that's

That's just poking holes

When I ran out of thread, I couldn't let go

But that's not sewing, that's

That's just poking holes

  • 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.
