  • Chorus 1
    Do 
    the 
    bad 
    thing 

    Take 
    off 
    your 
    wedding 
    ring 

    But 
    it 
    won't 
    make 
    it 

    that 
    much 
    easi
    er 

    It 
    might 
    make 
    it 
    worse 

    Verse 1
    Oh, 
    the 
    night's 
    like 
    whirlwind 

    Somebody's 
    girlfriend's 
    talking 
    to 
    me, 

    but 
    it's 
    alright 

    She's 
    saying 
    that 
    he's 
    not 
    gonna 
    slap 
    me 

    or 
    try 
    to 
    attack 
    me 

    He's 
    not 
    the 
    jealous 
    type 

    And 
    only 
    need 
    to 
    get 
    half 
    an 
    excuse 

    and 
    I'm 
    away 

    But 
    when 
    there's 
    no 
    excuses, 

    that's 
    much 
    easier 
    to 
    say 

    Bridge 1
    I've 
    been 
    before 

    And 
    all 
    these 
    capers 
    make 
    us 
    to 
    look 

    for 
    it 
    to 
    ig
    nore 

    See, 
    she's 
    talking 
    but 

    I'm 
    not 
    entirely 
    sure 
    (ah) 

    Interlude 1


    Chorus 2
    Do 
    the 
    bad 
    thing 

    Take 
    off 
    your 
    wedding 
    ring 

    But 
    it 
    won't 
    make 
    it 

    that 
    much 
    easi
    er 

    It 
    might 
    make 
    it 
    worse 

    Verse 2
    Oh, 
    sudden 
    disheartener 

    Somebody's 
    partner's 
    talking 
    to 
    me, 

    But 
    don't 
    know 
    that 
    is 
    what 
    she 
    isn't 

    She 
    murmurs 
    things 
    to 
    confirm 
    that 

    the 
    tragedy 
    is 
    true 

    And 
    knew, 
    how 
    could 
    she 
    not? 

    She 
    could 
    have 
    anyone 
    she 
    wants 

    And 
    I'm 
    struggling 
    to 
    think 
    of 

    an 
    immediate 
    response 

    Bridge 2
    Like, 
    "I 
    don't 
    mind, 
    it'd 
    be 
    big 
    mistake 

    for 
    you 
    to 
    wait 

    And 
    let 
    me 
    waste 
    your 
    time 

    Really, 
    love, 
    it's 
    fine" 

    Interlude 2
    said, 
    "Really, 
    love, 
    it's 

    (fine") 


    Outro 1
    And 
    then 
    the 
    first 
    time 
    it 
    occurred 

    that 
    there 
    was 
    something 
    to 
    destroy 

    knew 
    before 
    the 
    invitation 

    that 
    there 
    was 
    this 
    ploy 

    Oh, 
    but 
    she 
    carried 
    on 
    suggestin', 

    struggle 
    to 
    refuse 

    She 
    said, 
    "It's 
    the 
    red 
    wine 
    this 
    time" 

    But 
    that 
    is 
    no 
    excuse

    • 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.
