  • Verse 1
    Let's say 
    you're in 
    Chicago 

    and you're rattling 
    along 
    on 
    the El 

    And 
    the one 
    who rides 
    beside 

    you is 
    a stranger 
    to 
    her
    self 

    Nobody 
    knows 
    her own 
    heart 

    You might 
    have been 
    introduced 

    but you 
    drifted 
    apart 

    You're 
    long 
    way 
    from 
    where 

    you 
    belong 
    un
    aware 

    Let's say 
    you're 
    in Chicago 
    and you're making 

    out 
    under 
    the 
    El 

    You're trapped 
    in you're 
    head 

    humming 
    a tune 
    to your
    self 

    There's 
    a trapdoor 
    in 
    your 
    heart 

    There's 
    a false 
    bottom 
    line 

    and it's 
    falling 
    apart 

    You're 
    long 
    way 
    from 
    where 

    you 
    belong 
    un
    aware 

    We 
    were on 
    pins 
    and needles 

    You 
    were gearing 
    up to 
    cry 

    was 
    the 
    instigator 
    you 
    were 
    the reason 

    why 

    You're a long way from 
    where 

    you 
    belong 
    unaware 

    Let's say 
    you're in 
    Chicago 

    and you're breaking 
    up 
    all 
    over the 
    El 

    You 
    were so 
    in 
    love 
    but you 
    were only 

    in love 
    with your
    self 

    Nobody 
    knows 
    her own 
    heart 

    Things 
    were coming 
    together 

    now 
    they're falling 
    apart 

    You're a 
    long 
    way 
    from 
    where 

    you 
    belong 
    un
    aware 

    You're 
    a long 
    way 
    from 
    where 
    you 

    be
    long 
    un
    aware

    • 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.
