    Verse 1
    Open 
    up 

    till 
    midnight 

    The 
    butcher 
    waits 

    for someone's 
    desperation 

    That 
    goes 
    bey
    ond 
    con
    trol 


    Speaking 
    is 
    an 
    invitation 

    Verse 2

    Under 
    fluor
    escent 
    lights 

    You 
    can't 
    wash 
    out 
    his 
    de
    sire 

    Where 
    bodies 
    are 
    indecent 

    And 
    they 
    are 
    not 
    in 
    decline 


    From 
    behind 
    the counter 
    he 
    thought 
    you 
    whispered 

    you 
    want 
    more 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3

    Cut 
    out 
    the 
    brights 
    of 
    the 
    oncoming 

    cars 
    on 
    the 
    high
    way 

    Lightness 
    is 
    forced 
    when 
    you 
    cut 

    out 
    the 
    lines 
    in 
    the 
    pa
    per 

    Cut 
    the split 
    seconds 

    The 
    ones 
    over- 
    filled 

    When 
    you 
    thought 
    you 
    were 

    caught 
    with 
    unknowable 
    thrills 

    In
    stead 
    you 
    get 
    absence 

    Soft 
    haze 
    in 
    the 
    face 

    The 
    lines 
    in 
    your 
    head 
    have 
    to 

    all 
    be 
    replaced 

    Verse 4
    Cleave 
    the 
    dry 
    stone 
    to 
    promise 

    That 
    an 
    answer 
    soon 
    will 
    follow 

    Grave 
    attention 
    is 
    still 
    focused 

    On 
    the 
    flashlight 
    and 
    the 
    cold 
    fortune 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 5
    Down 

    the streets 
    on 
    prospect 

    The 
    butcher 
    walks 
    home 

    Orange 
    in 
    the streetlight 

    Even 
    knows 
    it 
    in 
    the 
    dark 


    Proves 
    it 
    with 
    his 
    eyes 
    closed 

    Verse 6
    He 
    puts 
    his 
    red 
    coat 
    downstairs 

    Goes 
    up 
    into 
    his 
    bedroom 

    Undresses 
    and 
    folds 
    his 
    arms 

    As 
    if 
    it could 
    impress 
    you 

    From 
    under 
    the covers 
    he 
    thought 
    you 
    whispered 
    you 
    want 
    more

    • 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.
