  • Verse 1
    Street 
    lights 
    start 
    to come 
    on 

    know 
    that 
    it's 
    time 

    Stop 
    what 
    you're doing 

    Meet 
    those 
    drinking 
    friends 
    of 
    mine 

    First 
    lady 
    call 
    me 
    on 
    the 
    telephone 

    She 
    said 
    'Get 
    out 
    and 
    die 
    young 

    but 
    I'm 
    staying 
    at 
    home' 

    Now 
    believe 
    in 
    love, 

    believe 
    that 
    it's 
    true 

    Know 
    I'm 
    defenceless 

    when 
    look 
    into 
    blue 

    Sleepy 
    eyes 
    down 
    an 
    angel's 
    face 

    Don't 
    worry 
    honey 
    no- 
    one's 

    gonna 
    take 
    your 
    place 

    Verse 2

    The 
    closer 
    you 
    get, 

    the 
    better 
    you 
    look 

    Throw 
    me 
    line 

    'Cause 
    the 
    closer 
    you 
    get, 

    the more 
    that 
    see 

    We'll sure 
    have 
    good 
    time 

    know 
    what 
    you're 
    thinking, 

    well 
    how 
    do 
    feel? 

    We'll 
    there's 
    no 
    rules 
    in 
    my 
    book 

    Except 
    the 
    closer 
    you 
    get, 

    the 
    better 
    you 
    look 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 3
    Keep 
    one 
    foot 
    in 
    the 
    showroom, 

    one 
    out 
    of 
    sight 

    Girl 
    I've 
    had 
    some 
    close 
    ones 

    but 
    I'm 
    doing 
    all 
    right 

    Gold 
    on 
    her 
    fingers 
    don't 
    mean 
    thing 

    He'll 
    do 
    his 
    best 
    to 
    hear 

    that 
    sweet 
    lady 
    sing 

    Now 
    got 
    the 
    time 
    if 
    you 
    got 
    the 
    place 

    We've 
    got 
    the 
    know 
    how 

    and 
    you 
    got 
    the face 

    We 
    got 
    the 
    power, 
    we 
    got 
    no 
    shame 

    Come 
    over 
    baby, 

    I sure 
    do 
    want 
    to 
    light 
    your 
    flame 

    'Cause 
    the 
    closer 
    you 
    get, 

    the 
    better 
    you 
    look 

    Throw 
    me 
    line 

    The 
    closer 
    you 
    get, 
    the more 
    that 
    see 

    We'll 
    sure 
    have 
    good 
    time 

    know 
    what 
    you're 
    thinking, 

    well 
    how 
    do 
    feel? 

    We'll 
    there's 
    no 
    rules 
    in 
    my 
    book 

    Except 
    the 
    closer 
    you 
    get, 

    the 
    better 
    you 
    look

    • 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.
