  • Intro 1


    There's 
    drum 
    Verse 1

    beat 
    and 
    a verse 

    Flooding 
    my 
    street 

    And 
    the 
    girls 
    they seem 
    ecstatic 

    This 
    time, 
    it's 
    not 
    on 
    them 

    To take 
    the 
    blame 
    for 
    the 
    commotion 

    In 
    the front 
    Verse 2
    seat 
    of 
    the car 

    you 
    left 
    out 
    here 

    I've 
    spent 
    far 
    too 
    many 
    hours, 

    still 
    can't 
    drive 

    Just 
    playing 
    through 
    these 
    tapes 

    'til 
    it 
    gets 
    light 
    out
    side 

    Verse 3

    These 
    are 
    things 
    I should

    n't 
    do 

    Just 
    wish 
    was 
    close 
    to 
    you 

    Instead 
    a block 
    party 
    with 
    neigh
    bours 

    These 
    amplified 
    words 

    And 
    the 
    absence 
    of 
    birds 

    Interlude 1


    Roll 
    down 
    the win
    Verse 4
    dows 

    Not 
    a choice, 
    find 
    the 
    en
    do 

    bet 
    these 
    boys 
    will 
    keep 

    on 
    dancing 
    all 
    night 

    For 
    once 
    they're 
    not 
    the 
    ones 
    being 

    blamed 
    for 
    the 
    commotion 

    Verse 5
    It's 
    like 
    the drum 
    beat, 

    like 
    the noise 

    Loves 
    the con
    crete 

    hope 
    this 
    voice 
    while 
    it 

    still 
    lingers 
    this 
    song 

    Es
    capes 
    the 
    tape 
    to 
    reach 
    your 

    distant 
    ears 
    where 
    it 
    belong

    Verse 6
    These 
    are 
    things 
    I should

    n't 
    say 

    These 
    are 
    things 
    should

    n't 
    do 

    These 
    are 
    things 
    should

    n't 
    say 

    Just 
    wish 
    was 
    close 
    to 
    you 

    Instead 
    this 
    block 
    party 

    with 
    neigh
    bours 

    These 
    amplified 
    words 

    And 
    the 
    absence 
    of 
    birds

    • 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.
