    Verse 1

    You gotta 
    think 
    about 
    it 

    You 
    gotta 
    make 
    a wish 

    and count 
    to ten 

    There's 
    just 
    a sense 
    of wonder 

    I feel 
    new 
    direction 
    looking 
    down 
    the lens 

    Jump 
    started 
    the 
    action 

    Heard 
    song 
    in my head 

    and wrote 
    it down 

    It came 
    out of nowhere 

    Felt 
    new sensation 
    driving 

    you 
    through 
    town 

    Verse 2
    You're 
    an open 
    chord 
    I wanna 
    play 
    all day 

    new 
    broom 
    sweeping 
    up 
    the 

    sins 
    no longer 
    play 

    Cleaning 
    out the 
    corners 

    Clipping 
    off 
    the 
    horns 

    That 
    the 
    Devil 
    used to 
    make 

    me 
    wear 
    all 
    day 

    You're an 
    open 
    chord 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    play 

    Interlude 1
    all day 


    Verse 3
    You're gonna 
    see some 
    changes 

    Gotta 
    pinch myself 
    just to 

    believe 

    Everybody's 
    having 
    something 

    But 
    I can 
    tell 
    you've got 
    some 

    ma
    gic 
    up 
    your sleeve 

    Some 
    deep protection 

    When 
    feeling 
    follows 
    you 
    around 

    always 
    need 
    the silence 

    Or the 
    lightning 
    you bring 

    like 
    new good 
    sound 

    Verse 4
    You're 
    an open 
    chord 

    I wanna 
    play 
    all day 

    new 
    broom 
    sweeping 
    up 

    the sins 
    I no 
    longer 
    play 

    Cleaning 
    out the 
    corners 

    Clipping 
    off 
    the 
    horns 

    That 
    the 
    Devil 
    used 
    to 
    make 

    me 
    wear 
    all 
    day 

    You're 
    an 
    open 
    chord 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    play 
    all day 

    Interlude 2



    Verse 5
    Sat 
    around 
    and waited 
    for a 
    spark 

    And it 
    brightened 
    up the 
    night 

    Before 
    I get 
    much 
    older 

    I want the 
    pleasure 
    of seeing 
    you 
    up in 
    lights 

    I could 
    then 
    beside 
    you 

    Hand 
    over 
    my heart 

    and say 
    a prayer 

    Love's 
    not 
    for quitters 

    It's 
    satisfaction 

    Knowing 
    that 
    you're 
    there 

    Verse 6
    You're 
    an open 
    chord 
    I wanna 
    play 
    all day 

    new 
    broom 
    sweeping 
    up 
    the sins 

    no 
    longer 
    play 

    Cleaning 
    out the 
    corners 

    Clipping 
    out the 
    horrors 

    That the 
    Devil 
    used 
    to 
    make 

    me 
    wear 
    all 
    day 

    You're 
    an open 
    chord 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    play 
    all 
    day 

    Cleaning 
    out 
    the corners 

    Clipping 
    out the 
    horrors 

    That 
    the 
    Devil 
    used 
    to 
    make 

    me 
    wear 
    all 
    day 

    You're 
    an 
    open 
    chord 
    I'm 

    gonna 
    play 
    all day 

    You're an 
    open 
    chord 
    I'm gon

    na

    • 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.
