    Verse 1
    Mary 
    at home, 
    as 
    always, 

    was 
    ironing 
    a pale 
    shirt 
    of 
    a ghost 

    Trying 
    to straighten 
    out 
    every 
    crease 
    of his being 

    and 
    the emptiness 
    where she 
    was 
    lost 

    Ten 
    minutes 
    before 
    she 
    had 
    her man 

    dry
    ing 
    in 
    the summer's 
    breeze 

    Their 
    love 
    had been 
    helped 
    by 
    little 
    red peg 

    but 
    it was 
    just 
    moment 
    seized 

    Verse 2

    'Cause 
    he flew 
    away 

    On a 
    memory 
    where 
    most 

    People 
    fade 
    away 

    But 
    now she's 
    left 
    with the shirt 

    of 
    ghost 

    Yeah she's 
    left 
    with the 
    shirt 

    of 
    ghost 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3
    Ten 
    minutes 
    before 
    he 
    ran away 
    to 

    a stranger's 
    hands 
    and 
    feet 

    And 
    as 
    it turned 
    she 
    saw 
    them play 
    among the 
    soap, 

    water 
    and 
    heat. 

    Verse 4

    'Cause 
    he flew 
    away 

    On a 
    memory 
    where 
    most 

    Lovers 
    just 
    fade 
    away 

    And she's 
    left 
    with the 
    shirt 

    of 
    ghost 

    Yeah she's 
    left 
    with the 
    shirt 

    of 
    ghost 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 5
    Ten 
    minutes 
    be
    fore 
    the shirt 
    was 

    stained 
    in 
    anger 
    and 
    greed 

    And it 
    smelled 
    of 
    re
    venge 
    from 
    broken 
    heart 

    and the shirt 
    his body 
    no 
    longer 
    did 
    need 

    Verse 6
    'Cause 
    he 
    flew 
    away 

    On a 
    memory 
    where 
    most 

    Bodies 
    just 
    fade 
    away 

    But she's 
    left 
    with the 
    shirt 
    of 

    ghost 

    Yeah she's 
    left 
    with the 
    shirt 

    of a 
    ghost 

    Verse 7

    'Cause 
    he flew 
    away 

    On a 
    memory 
    where 
    most 

    Lovers 
    just 
    fade 
    away 

    But she's 
    left 
    with the 
    shirt 
    of 

    ghost 

    Yeah she's 
    left 
    with the 
    shirt 

    of a 
    ghost 

    She's 
    left 
    with the 
    shirt 
    of a 
    ghost

    • 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.
