    Verse 1
    One 
    day 
    I 
    gotta 
    get 
    out 
    of 
    here 

    I 
    gotta 
    make 
    everything 
    clear 

    I 
    gotta 
    see 
    you 

    I 
    know 
    the 
    way 
    that 
    I 
    feel 
    is 
    wrong, 

    so 
    wrong 

    But 
    I 
    gotta 
    carry 
    on, 

    when 
    you 
    ain't 
    a
    round 

    Pre-chorus 1
    I 
    be
    lieve 
    things 
    are 
    going 
    wrong 

    And 
    the 
    night 
    goes 
    on 
    and 
    on 

    All 
    your 
    dreams 
    have 
    flown 
    away 

    And 
    the 
    sun 
    won't 
    shine 
    to
    day 

    Chorus 1
    The 
    lights 
    go 
    down 
    (I 
    want 
    you 
    baby) 

    The 
    lights 
    go 
    down 
    (I 
    need 
    you 
    baby) 

    The 
    lights 
    go 
    down 

    and 
    there's 
    no 
    one 
    a
    round 


    Verse 2
    I 
    know, 
    you're 
    waiting 

    so 
    close 
    to 
    me 

    But 
    how 
    will 
    you 
    e
    ver 
    see 

    as 
    time 
    rolls 
    a
    way 

    Lonely, 
    but 
    tryin' 
    to 
    be 
    so 
    proud 

    And 
    just 
    as 
    I 
    turn 
    around 

    the 
    lights 
    go 
    down 

    Pre-chorus 2
    I 
    be
    lieve 
    things 
    are 
    going 
    wrong 

    And 
    the 
    night 
    goes 
    on 
    and 
    on 

    All 
    your 
    dreams 
    have 
    flown 
    away 

    And 
    the 
    sun 
    won't 
    shine 
    to
    day 

    Chorus 2
    The 
    lights 
    go 
    down 
    (I

    baby) 

    The 
    lights 
    go 
    down 
    (I 
    need 
    you 
    baby) 

    The 
    lights 
    go 
    down 

    and 
    there's 
    no 
    one 
    a

    • 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.”
