Verse 1
Em
Am
I met her in Long Beach bar,
G
Am
full of drunk old men, she said,
you look like a nice boy
and I'm looking for a friend,
D
cause I got a bottle in my purse,
Am
I got some time to kill
D
E
Em
And I can show you a good time,
C
D
Am
D
Am
up on top of Signal Hill
Em
Well I was just 23 and she was twice
Am
that as far as I could tell
But I drove her up the dark roads
past the old oil wells
D
When she put her hand on mine,
Am
D
Am
I admit I felt a little thrilled
E
Em

So I parked the car up in the weeds,
Am
at the top of Signal Hill
D

Em
D

C
Am
Well, those things will kill you, she said,
reaching for my cigarette,
C
Am
and she took a long slow drag
Em
Am
D
until the filter was warm and wet
Then she pulled her bottle out and said
Am
This will help ward off the chicken
Em
E
Em
And we drank that bottle dry
Am
Real slow up on Signal Hill
She said I used to dance in Vegas
Trust me honey it's true
D
Am
I knew all the cops and entertainers,
D
and even a senator or two
And if I could have stayed out of trouble,
Am
you know I'd be there still
D
E
Instead of sitting in some stranger's car
D
Am
on the top of Signal Hill

Verse 2
Am
Well, after she passed out,
I just stared down at the city lights
And thought of all the dreams
and broken hearts lost in the night
D
And I listened to her breathing,
Am
soft and sweet like a child
A
Am
E
D
until the sun rose cold and lonely
Am
D

on the top of Signal Hill

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
