    Verse 1
    Sleepy 
    little 
    town, 

    how'd 
    it come 
    to be? 

    The 
    whole 
    world 
    lies 
    before 
    you, 

    your 
    back's 
    against 
    the 
    sea. 

    Tucker 
    played 
    a 
    little 
    ball, 

    left home 
    for 
    the university 

    Nev
    er 
    made 
    the pros, 

    back here's 
    where he 
    found his 
    feet 

    Standing 
    six 
    foot 
    nine, 

    eas
    ily 
    identified 

    He'd 
    robbed 
    another 
    liquor 
    store, 

    the 
    law would 
    have 
    the man 
    in 
    time 

    Deep 
    down 
    in 
    the cut, 
    beneath 
    the 
    refinery 

    An 
    ex 
    -rival 
    guns 
    him down 
    in 
    a 

    dope deal 
    turned 
    robbery 

    The 
    paper 
    showed 
    it all 
    too 
    clear, 

    a 
    black 
    and white 
    photograph 

    A 
    bloody 
    hand 
    and 
    a wad 
    of twenties 

    left 
    lying 
    in 
    the grass 

    Sleepy 
    little 
    town, 
    how'd 
    it come 
    to be? 

    The 
    whole 
    world 
    lies 
    before 
    you, 

    your 
    back's 
    against 
    the 
    sea 

    A 
    poster 
    of 
    your face 
    has 

    blown 
    from up 
    the 
    street 

    For 
    a 
    show 
    that 
    you'll 
    never 
    play 

    and 
    it's 
    resting 
    at 
    my 
    feet 

    Three 
    hundred 
    pounds 
    of 
    soul 
    blown 

    through 
    an alto 
    saxophone 

    And 
    a 
    heart 
    streaked 
    blue with 

    tears 
    and 
    nowhere 
    left 
    to go 

    With 
    the 
    wind 
    in your 
    face 
    and 

    your 
    mama 
    on the 
    line 

    The 
    po
    lice 
    tried 
    to 
    talk 
    you down 

    But 
    you 
    didn't 
    give them 
    time 

    From 
    high 
    upon 
    the 
    harbor 
    bridge 

    To 
    the 
    hard concrete 
    below 

    Flip 
    flop 
    and 
    flies 
    a song 

    That 
    I can't 
    play 
    no 
    more 

    Sleepy 
    little 
    town 

    How'd 
    it come 
    to be, 
    the 
    whole 
    world 
    lies 
    before 
    you, 

    your 
    back's 
    against 
    the 
    sea? 

    Sleepy 
    little 
    tin, 
    how'd 
    it come 
    to be, 

    the 
    whole 
    world 
    lies 
    before 
    you, 
    your 
    back's 
    against 
    the 
    sea? 

    you

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
