  • Verse 1
    Broke 
    in
    to 
    the 
    old 
    a
    partment 

    This 
    is 
    where 
    we 
    used 
    to 
    live 

    Broken 
    glass, 
    broke 
    and 
    hungry 

    Broken 
    hearts 
    and 
    broken 
    bones 

    This 
    is 
    where 
    we 
    used 
    to 
    live 

    Pre-chorus 1
    Why 
    did 
    you 
    paint 
    the 
    walls? 

    Why 
    did 
    you 
    clean 
    the 
    floor? 

    Why 
    did 
    you 
    plaster 
    over 

    the 
    hole 
    punched 
    in 
    the 

    Chorus 1
    (door?) 
    This 
    is 
    where 
    we 
    used 
    to 
    live 

    Why 
    did 
    you 
    keep 
    the 
    mousetrap? 

    Why 
    did 
    you 
    keep 
    the 
    dish 
    rack? 

    These 
    things 
    used 
    to 
    be 
    mine 

    guess 
    they 
    still 
    are, 
    want 
    'em 
    back 

    Verse 2
    Broke 
    in
    to 
    the 
    old 
    a
    partment 

    Forty-
    two 
    steps 
    from 
    the 
    street 

    Crooked 
    landing, 
    crooked 
    landlord 

    Narrow 
    laneway 
    filled 
    with 
    crooks 

    This 
    is 
    where 
    we 
    used 
    to 
    live 

    Pre-chorus 2
    Why 
    did 
    they 
    pave 
    the 
    lawn? 

    Why 
    did 
    they 
    change 
    the 
    locks? 

    Why 
    did 
    have 
    to 
    break 
    in, 

    only 
    came 
    here 
    to 

    Chorus 2
    (talk) 
    This 
    is 
    where 
    we 
    used 
    to 
    live 

    How 
    is 
    the 
    neighbour 
    downstairs? 

    How 
    is 
    her 
    temper 
    this 
    year? 

    turned 
    up 
    your 
    TV 

    And 
    stomped 
    on 
    the 
    floor 
    just 
    for 
    fun 

    Bridge 1
    know 
    we 
    don't 

    live 
    here 
    any
    more 

    We 
    bought 
    an 
    old 
    house 

    on 
    the 
    Danforth 

    She 
    loves 
    me 

    and 
    her 
    body 
    keeps 
    me 
    warm 

    And 
    I'm 
    happy 
    here 

    This 
    is 
    where 
    we 
    used 
    to 
    live 

    Verse 3
    Broke 
    in
    to 
    the 
    old 
    a
    partment 

    Tore 
    the 
    phone 
    out 
    of 
    the 
    wall 

    Only 
    memories, 
    fading 
    memories 

    Blending 
    into 
    dull 
    tab
    leaux 

    want 
    them 
    back 

    Outro 1
    want 
    them 
    back 

    (This 
    is 
    where 
    we 
    used 
    to 
    live) 

    want 
    them

    • 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.
