    • Verse 1
    There 

    goes 
    another 
    one 

    Another 
    happy 
    couple 
    on 

    the road 
    to 
    empti
    ness 

    I 
    think 
    of 
    my father 
    and 
    mother 

    Can 
    they 
    ima
    gine 
    how two 

    people 
    can 
    get 
    in 
    this mess 

    But 
    the 
    old 
    song
    s say 
    - love's forever 

    And 
    the old 
    song
    s never 
    say 
    die 

    But 
    a song 
    can't 
    keep 

    us to
    gether 

    How can 
    that beauti
    ful song 
    be 
    a lie 

    Me 
    I blame 
    the old 
    songs 

    Filling hearts 
    with 
    rebel

    lion and 
    romance 

    Our book 
    of 
    revela
    tions 

    And all 
    we 
    had to 
    do was 
    dance 

    Play 
    us 
    another 
    one 

    Play us 
    the hopes 
    and dreams 

    of 
    twenty 
    years 
    ago 

    They're all 
    over 
    the 
    bloody 
    radi
    o 

    It's like 
    they're 
    telling 

    us there's 
    nowhere 
    left to 
    go 

    And 
    the 
    old 
    song
    s say 

    - "be my 
    baby" 

    And 
    the 
    old 
    song
    s say 

    - "she loves 
    you" 

    All 
    the song
    s we'll 
    sing 

    come 
    what 
    may be 

    I like 
    those 
    songs 

    But I'd 
    like 
    something 
    new 

    Me 
    I blame 
    the old 
    songs 

    Protect 
    us all 
    against 

    a change 
    of course 

    All 
    our great 
    expecta
    tions 

    Turn 
    to 
    alimony 
    and 
    remorse

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
