    Verse 1
    I knew 
    guy, 

    I thought 
    he was 
    my first 
    love 

    But 
    he 
    had 
    to decide 
    between 

    me 
    and 
    the one 
    before 

    And 
    she stacked 
    it 
    all 
    up, 

    like 
    a house 
    of 
    cards 

    Said 
    if 
    he 
    didn't 
    come back, 

    he'd find 
    her flattened 
    on 
    the 
    floor 

    And 
    though 
    I went 
    Verse 2
    and lived 

    in 
    my 
    own 
    hell 

    Thought 
    that I 
    could 
    die 
    as 
    well 

    let him 
    go 
    where he 
    thought 

    he had 
    to go 

    Verse 3
    'Cause 
    I never 
    took 
    heavy 

    words 
    for granted 

    And 
    I never 
    took 
    undeserved 
    advantage 

    No, 
    I nev
    er 
    took 
    the easy 
    way 

    So 
    why don't 
    you 
    take 
    it 

    a little 
    easy 
    on 
    me now? 


    Verse 4
    Out 
    on the road, 
    had 
    so many 
    questions 

    thought 
    would explode 

    just 
    for some 
    attention 

    Like 
    an acolyte, 

    saw 
    the flames 
    of towering 
    tapers 

    Almost 
    proselytized by 

    those gleam
    ing piles 
    of paper 

    Yeah, 
    watched 
    Verse 5
    the 
    power 
    huddles 

    And 
    their 
    coat
    draped 
    over 
    puddles 

    And 
    their 
    trust 
    me, 
    baby, 

    I'm 
    the 
    one you 
    need 

    Verse 6
    But 
    I never 
    took 
    heavy 
    words 
    for granted 

    And 
    I never 
    took 
    undeserved 
    advantage 

    No, I 
    nev
    er 
    took 
    the 
    easy 
    way 

    So 
    why don't 
    you 
    take 
    it 
    a little 

    easy 
    on 
    me now? 

    Verse 7

    'Cause 
    we don't 
    want 
    to be 
    the 
    ones 

    To lie 
    and 
    cheat 
    and 
    slander

    So 
    we 
    hold 
    each 
    other 
    up 
    to 

    the higher 
    stand
    ard 

    But I'll 
    tell 
    you 
    what, 

    I'll 
    never 
    try 
    to 
    make 
    it hard 

    ?Cause when you're 
    hard 

    just 
    to be 
    hard 

    The only 
    thing 
    that's hard 
    is 
    you 

    Verse 8
    So 
    here's 
    what I took, 

    I kept 
    the wine 
    and laughter 

    Until 
    every 
    path 
    just 
    grew 

    up 
    and ever 
    after 

    Through 
    the peak
    s and twisty 
    canyons 

    made many 
    great 
    companions 

    Best 
    of 
    all 
    is the 
    one 
    who loves 

    me 
    like 
    you do 

    Verse 9
    'Cause 
    I never 
    took 
    heavy 

    words 
    for granted 

    And 
    I never 
    took 
    undeserved 
    advantage 

    No, 
    I nev
    er 
    took 
    the 
    easy 
    way 

    So 
    why don't 
    you 
    take 
    it 
    a little 

    easy 
    on 
    me now? 

    Verse 10
    'Cause 
    I never 
    took 
    heavy 

    words 
    for granted 

    And 
    it's much 
    too 
    late 
    to 
    even 

    want 
    the shortcut 

    Yeah, I 
    nev
    er 
    took 
    the easy 
    way 

    So 
    you can 
    take 
    it 
    a little 

    easy 
    on 
    me now 

    'Cause 
    we know that 
    easy's 

    never 
    easy 
    any
    how

    • 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.
