G

this I deserve to get kissed at least once or twice
C

You come over to my place screaming blue murder,
G

needing someplace to hide.
C

Well, I wish you'd keep quiet,
G

Imaginations run riot,
Am
G

In these paper- thin walls.
C

And when the place comes ablaze

with a thousand dropped names
G

I don't know who to call.
Bm

But I got a friend over there in

the government block
G
C

And he knows the situation

and he's taking stock,
D

I think I'll call him up now

Put him on the spot,

Verse 2
C

They saw me there in the square when

I was shooting my mouth off
G

About saving some fish.
C

Now could that be construed as some
G

radical's views or some liberals' wish.
Bm

And it's so hot outside,

And the air is so sweet,
C

And when the pressure drop is heavy

I don't wanna hear you speak.
D

You know most killing is

committed at 90 degrees.

When it's too hot to breathe

And it's too hot to think.

There's always someone looking at you.

And I wish you'd stop whispering.

Don't flatter yourself,
G

nobody's listening.
C

Still it makes me nervous,
G

those things you say.

You may as well
C

Shout it from the roof

Scream it from your lungs
G

Spit it from you mouth
C

It could fall on deaf ears to

indulge in your fears
D

There's a spy in the sky

There's a noise on the wire

There's a tap on the line

And for every paranoid's desire...

  • 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.
