You have to do your best to come up to par,

from straight off the

Production line like a car,

Till everything you put on is a put- on,

and you don't know who's face

You're gazing upon

Could be anyone you're sending out there tonight,

is it any wonder all of
Am

The lights are too bright?
F
C

And you need temporary beauty,
G
Am

and pray to God that it doesn't rain
F

You need temporary beauty,
C
G
Ebm

even though it might be love in vain

The world is full of little people like you,

they have to read a book to

Learn what to do
Am

They hang around in second - hand[?] clothes,
F
C
G

and every kind of pressure
Ebm

Steps on their toes
Em
C

Love doesn't fall out of a magazine,

you mustn't always believe what you've seen

And you need temporary beauty,

and pray to God that it doesn't rain

You need temporary beauty,

even though it might be love in vain

Ah- ah temporary beauty, ah- ah temporary beauty,

ah- ah temporary beauty

You might be the sweetest little
Am

girl in your heart,
G

But still the world [?] knows that
Am
F
C

and tears you apart
G

You think of the parties you'll never attend,
Ebm

you dream of someone who's

More than a friend

Love doesn't jump out of a magazine,

you mustn't always believe what you've seen

And you need temporary beauty,

and pray to God that it doesn't rain

You need temporary beauty,

even though it might be love, even though it

Might be love,

Even though it might be love in vain

  • 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.
