McMurtry When a

telephone rings in an empty room

Does it make a sound

When I get back from the east coast

Will you still be around
G

Well that's hard to say

Doesn't look that way
Dsus4
D

Pigeons on the sidewalk

Can't stay out of my way

Night clerk at the hotel

Won't give me the time of day
G

I can understand

Coming off a bad day

I want to turn and run away

Quick as I can

(Chorus)
G

And I see your shining eyes
D

In the middle of the night
G

Between the highway lines
D

And the runway lights
Em

Silence on the line

Something's not right
G

Must have drifted too far

From the sight of your shining eyes

shouldn't sit here longing

For the time we never spent

With the pockets of my suitcase

Full of cards I never sent

I can't fix the past

And the world's spinning

much too fast

Slowly falling into line

Sometimes I think I know my mind

(Chorus)

It might have made no difference

Had I never left at all

But I'm standing at the pay phone

And they're sweeping out the hall
G

And I guess you'll never answer

But there's not much I

could say
A

You might not want to hear my name

I miss your company just the same

Everyday

  • 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.
