    Verse 1
    What 
    if 
    did 
    not 
    love 
    you? 

    Where

    misery 

    Verse 2

    down 
    in 
    the 
    gutter 

    With 
    cheap 
    whiskey 
    on 
    my 
    breath 

    The 
    lonely 
    life 
    of 
    writer 

    Whose 
    words 
    could 
    not 
    pay 
    his 
    debts 

    Verse 3

    alive, 
    oh can't 
    you 
    see?

    blinded 
    completely

    Interlude 1

    Verse 4
    What 
    if 
    we 
    became 
    strangers? 

    Would 
    you 
    no
    tice 
    my 

    face 
    in 
    crowd? 

    And 
    could 
    you 
    hear 
    the 
    sorrow 

    in 
    my 
    voice? 

    Helplessly 
    crying 
    your 

    name 
    out 
    loud 

    Verse 5

    Would 
    be 
    searching 
    for 
    a savior? 

    Burned 
    and 
    burning 
    with 
    regret 

    The 
    lonely 
    life 
    of

    Only 
    if 
    one 
    last 
    desperate 
    request

    • 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.
