    Verse 1
    At 
    that 
    time 
    of 
    the 
    night 

    When streetlights 
    throw crosses 

    through 
    window 
    frames 

    Paranoia 
    roams 
    where 
    the shad
    ows 
    reign 

    Oh, 
    at 
    that 
    time 
    of 
    the 
    night 

    At 
    that 
    time 
    of 
    the night 

    Your senses 
    tangled 
    in 

    some new 
    perfume 

    Criticism 
    triggers 
    of 
    a loaded 
    room 

    Oh, 
    at 
    that 
    time 
    of 
    the night 

    Verse 2
    So 
    if 
    you 
    ask 
    me 

    How 
    do I fell 
    inside 

    I 
    could 
    honestly 
    tell 
    you 

    We've 
    been taken 
    on 
    a 
    very 
    long 
    ride 

    And 
    if my 
    owners 
    let 
    me 

    Have 
    some 
    free time 
    some 
    day 

    With 
    all 
    good in
    tention 

    I 
    would 
    probably 
    run away 

    Clutching 
    the 
    short 
    straw 

    Verse 3

    At 
    that time 
    of the 
    night 

    When 
    questions 
    rally 
    in an 
    open 
    mind 

    Sum
    mon 
    all your 
    answers 
    with 

    an 
    ice 
    cube 
    chime 

    At that time 
    of 
    the 
    night 

    At 
    that time 
    of the 
    night 

    Pre
    tend 
    you're off 
    the hook 

    with the 
    telephone 

    Your 
    confidence 
    wounded 

    in 
    a 
    free 
    fire 
    zone 

    Oh, 
    at 
    that 
    time 
    of the 
    night 

    So 
    if you 
    Verse 4
    ask 
    me 

    Where 
    do I go 
    from 
    here 

    My 
    next 
    des
    tination 

    Even 
    isn't 
    really 
    that 
    clear 

    So 
    if you 
    join 
    me 

    And 
    get on 
    your knees 
    and 
    prey 

    I'll 
    show 
    you sal
    vation 

    We'll 
    take 
    the al
    ternative 
    way 

    Clutching 
    the 
    short 
    straw 

    Verse 5

    If I had 
    enough money 

    I'd 
    buy 
    a round 
    for 
    that 
    boy 
    over-there 

    A 
    A companion 
    in my mad

    ness 
    in 
    the mirror 

    The 
    one 
    with the 
    silvery 
    hair 

    And 
    if some 
    kind 
    soul 

    Could 
    please 
    pick 
    up my 
    tab 

    And while 
    they're 
    at 
    it 

    If 
    they could 
    pick 
    up my 
    broken 

    heart 

    Warm 
    wet 
    Verse 6
    circles 
    Outro 1

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
