  • Verse 1
    Took 
    a high 
    dive 
    arcing 
    out 
    wide 

    Into 
    the 
    crowd, 

    Out 
    to 
    the 
    sound 
    of 
    their wild 
    applause 

    But you've 
    heard 
    it 

    be
    fore 

    And you've 
    seen 
    it 
    all 

    From 
    up 
    there 
    on 
    the diving 

    board 

    Verse 2

    You'd 
    free 
    fall 
    into 
    the 
    eth
    er 

    Above 
    the people 

    Out 
    on 
    a limb 
    fragile 
    and 
    ad
    ored 

    But 
    who 
    below 
    knows 
    that 

    You're 
    still 
    a mystery 

    Way 
    up 
    on 
    the diving 
    board 

    Verse 3

    Sink 
    or swim 

    can't 
    re
    call 

    Who said 
    that 
    to 
    me? 

    When 
    was six
    teen 

    And 
    full 
    of the world 
    and 
    its noise 

    Verse 4

    But 
    you 
    beat 
    the drum 

    You 
    fell 
    in love 
    with it 
    all 

    The planets 
    alight 

    Those 
    dizzy 
    heights 

    And the view, 

    from the 
    diving 
    board 

    Verse 5

    Took 
    the 
    grand 
    prize 
    you 

    and 
    your 
    eyes 

    Butterfly 
    light 

    Escaping 
    the reach 

    Of 
    their 
    fangs 
    and their 
    claws 

    Such 
    a pale 
    little 
    thing 

    In your 
    lily- 
    white 
    skin 

    High 
    up 
    on 
    the diving 
    board. 

    Verse 6

    Sink 
    or swim 

    can't 
    recall 

    Who said 
    that 
    to 
    me? 

    When 
    was six
    teen 

    And 
    full 
    of the world 
    and 
    its noise 

    Verse 7

    But 
    you 
    beat 
    the drum 

    You 
    fell 
    in love 
    with it 
    all 

    The 
    planets 
    aline 

    Those 
    dizzy 
    heights 

    And the 
    view 
    from the 
    diving 
    board 

    Interlude 1





    Verse 8
    Sink 
    or swim 

    can't 
    re
    call 

    Who 
    said 
    that 
    to 
    me? 

    When 
    was six
    teen 

    And 
    full 
    of the world 
    and 
    its noise 

    Verse 9

    But 
    you 
    beat 
    the drum 

    You 
    fell 
    in love 
    with 
    it 
    all 

    The planets 
    aline 

    Those 
    dizzy 
    height

    And the 
    view 
    from the 
    diving 
    board 

    And the 
    view 
    from 
    the 
    diving 
    board

    • 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.
