Intro 1
D


Verse 1
D

We've been stuck out here in the
Em
D

hallway for way way too long

I'm at a loss, I'm at a loss

I'm losing grip, the fabric's ripped

Go back to sleep, let me drive,

let me think, let me figure it out

How to get us back to the place where

we were when we first went out
Verse 2
D

I'll tell you about it some time,

the time we left

I'll tell you about it some time,

the time we left
Verse 3
D

Losing parents, losing sense
Em
D

I don't know what we should do

Became a father when I was still a son,

she brings it out in you

See you at the end of the party
A
D

with your wild white eyes

Filling up the teacup with gin in your

secret postcard life
Verse 4
D

I'll tell you about it some time,

the time we left

I'll tell you about it some time,

the time we left

I'll tell you about it some time,

the time we left

I'll tell you about it some time,
Interlude 1

the time we left
D

Verse 5
D
A

We leave our saviors wrapped around
D

the necks of new machines

Or at the ends of threads that hold

their bodies to the ground

And then the men who look a little

like they felt like me

Offered them some bottled water,

then they cut them down

I came back to see if you were here, but

everything was different

Your voice was low, you blended in,

I could barely hear you speak

You were always my last second

bright spot in the distance

Thought that you were something

good that I would always keep
Verse 6
D

I'll still destroy you some day, sleep well

beast, you as well beast

I'll still destroy you some day, sleep well beast,

you as well beast

I'll still destroy you some day, sleep well beast,

you as well beast

I'll still destroy you some day,
Outro 1

sleep well beast, you as well beast

  • 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.
