    Verse 1
    Some
    body 

    told 
    me 
    that 
    always 
    have 
    to 
    bow 

    If 
    that 
    was true 
    I would have 

    fallen 
    apart 
    by 
    now 

    The more 
    you 
    think, the 

    less 
    you 
    act 
    their 
    ways 

    So 
    can 
    you 
    hear 
    this, 
    the 
    fake 
    sound 
    of pro
    gress 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 2
    Never 
    reason 
    with 
    a fool, 

    but 
    is that 
    unkind, 

    Looks 
    like 
    I lost 
    my mind 
    once 
    again 

    know 
    it 
    all sounds 
    so 
    con
    trived, 

    but 
    its got 
    to 
    me 

    You 
    know 
    I've got 
    to 
    be 
    more 
    than 
    this 

    Verse 3
    Don't 
    frown, 
    don't 
    scorn, 

    cus 
    walk 
    a dif
    ferent 
    street 
    to 
    you 

    You 
    look 
    so 
    worn, 

    bet 
    that 
    life 
    is has 
    got 
    you 
    blown 

    But 
    it will 
    nev
    er 
    get 
    to 
    mee 

    Some
    body 
    told 
    me 
    that 

    always 
    have 
    to 
    bow 

    If 
    Verse 4
    that 
    was true 
    I would have 

    fallen 
    apart 
    by 
    now 

    The 
    more 
    you think, 

    the 
    less 
    you 
    act 
    their 
    ways 

    So 
    can 
    you hear 
    this, 

    the 
    fake 
    sound 
    of pro
    gress 

    And 
    I feel 
    the way 
    you hold

    hold 
    me back 
    from 
    this 

    Verse 5
    Chances 
    that 
    I've missed, 

    now 
    their 
    gone 

    Apathy 
    is 
    all 
    sense, 

    the 
    feelings 
    too 
    intense 

    Sitting 
    on 
    a fence 
    and 
    can't 
    decide 

    Don't 
    frown, 
    don't 
    scorn, 

    cus 
    walk 
    a dif
    ferent 
    street 
    to 
    you 

    Verse 6
    You 
    look 
    so 
    worn, 

    bet 
    that 
    life 
    is has 
    got 
    you 
    blown 

    No body 
    will 
    ever 
    get 
    to 
    me 

    Some
    body 
    told 
    me 
    that 

    always 
    have 
    to 
    bow 

    If 
    that 
    was true 
    I would have 

    fallen 
    apart 
    by 
    now 

    Verse 7
    The 
    more 
    you think, 

    the 
    less 
    you 
    act 
    their 
    ways 

    So 
    can 
    you hear 
    this, 

    the 
    fake 
    sound 
    of progress 


    Verse 8
    All 
    these 
    words that 
    accounted 
    for, 

    never 
    fear 
    an
    other 
    day 

    Always 
    charged 
    but I 
    need 
    more, 

    make 
    me take 
    away 

    Tell 
    me now, 
    can you 
    hear 
    the sound 

    Of 
    all 
    these people 
    falling 
    down 

    Verse 9
    Growing 
    back 
    into 
    the 
    ground 
    let 

    me smile 
    again... 

    Smile 

    Verse 10
    Tell me 
    now 
    can 
    you hear 
    the 
    sound, 

    of the 
    record spinning 

    Round 
    and 
    round, 

    for on and 
    on it sounds 
    like 
    the same 
    old 

    Song that 
    I keep 
    singing, 

    it 
    sounds 
    like 

    Verse 11
    Dah 
    dah 
    dah 
    dah (yeahyeah sounds 

    like) 
    dah dah 
    dah dah 

    (all these words 
    that 
    ac
    coun
    ted 
    for, 

    I'll nev
    er 
    fear 
    an
    other 
    day) 

    Verse 12
    Somebody 
    told 
    me 
    that 

    always have 
    to 
    bow 

    If 
    that 
    was true 
    I would have 

    fallen 
    apart 
    by 
    now 

    The 
    more 
    you think, 

    the 
    less 
    you 
    act 
    their 
    ways 

    So 
    can 
    you hear 
    this, 

    the 
    fake 
    sound 
    of 
    progress 

    Yeah

    • 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.
