  • Verse 1
    You fell 
    in love 

    or threw 
    it away 

    You're 
    looking for the 
    perfect 

    thing 
    to 
    say 

    You're no good 
    with 
    words, 

    well, 
    that's okay 

    That's 
    why 
    write 
    songs 

    Verse 2
    Might make 
    you laugh 

    or make 
    you cry 

    Might help 
    you 
    make 
    it through 
    bad 

    goodbye 

    'Cause you've been 
    through it 

    and so 
    have I 

    That's 
    why 
    write 
    songs 

    Verse 3

    I remember 
    all 
    the 
    times 
    felt 

    Like 
    somebody 
    knows 
    me 
    all 

    too 
    well 

    'Cause it was 
    my 
    life 
    story 
    I was 

    listen
    ing 
    to 

    I don't know 
    about 
    you 

    Verse 4
    But 
    I've buried 
    loved ones and 

    few good 
    friends 

    I've held 
    brand 
    new 
    baby 

    in 
    my 
    hands 

    It ain't 
    just what 
    I do, 
    it's 
    who I 
    am 

    And 
    that's 
    why 
    write 
    songs 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 5
    I remember 
    how it 
    blew 
    my 
    mind 

    When 
    I played my 
    song 
    and 

    watched 
    a grown 
    man 
    cry 

    And 
    it was 
    at 
    that 
    mo
    ment 

    I just 
    knew 

    What I was 
    born 
    to do 

    Verse 6

    Most 
    songwriter
    s never get 

    the fame 

    Some folks 
    wouldn't 
    recognize 

    their names 

    But chances 
    are 
    you 
    probably 

    sang 
    along 


    Verse 7
    To 
    Harlan 
    Howard 
    or 

    Bob 
    McDill 

    Whitey 
    Shafer 
    or 

    Whispering 
    Bill 

    All the times 
    they 
    ever gave 
    me 
    chills 

    That's 
    why 
    I write 
    songs

    • 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.
