    Verse 1
    Your 

    mailbox 
    is 
    always 
    empty 

    And 
    your 
    landlord 
    always 
    complains 

    And 
    you try 
    to 
    forget 
    your 
    past 

    But 
    it's 
    just 
    adding 
    to 
    your pain 

    And 
    it's 
    time 
    for one 
    more 
    ci

    garette 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 2
    Yes, 
    I 
    slept 
    on 
    your 
    satin 

    pillows 

    They felt 
    like 
    a second 
    skin 

    You 
    needn't 
    have looked 
    so 
    helpless 
    there 

    I 
    was 
    the moth 
    stuck 
    on 

    Interlude 2
    your 
    pin 


    Verse 3
    Sleeping, 
    I 
    am 
    the sleeper

    Sleeping, 
    I 
    am 
    the sleeper

    Verse 4

    Oh 
    it 
    used 
    to feel 
    so 
    right 

    Everything 
    seemed 
    new 

    I 
    haven't 
    changed 

    It 
    isn't 
    me 
    that's 
    what's 
    wrong 
    with 

    Interlude 3
    you 



    Verse 5
    Sleep
    ing, 
    I am 
    the sleep
    er 

    Interlude 4


    Verse 6
    The sun 
    came 
    up 
    and you'd 
    come 
    back 

    The door 
    was 
    open 
    wide 

    I 
    should 
    have slammed 
    it 

    in 
    your face 

    I should have 
    shot 
    you 
    in the back 

    That's 
    what Je
    sus 

    would 
    have 
    done 

    If Satan 
    had come 

    And 
    looked 
    him 
    in 
    the eye 
    and said 

    "You're 
    my 
    kind 
    of guy, 

    why don't 
    you come 
    away 
    with 
    me? 

    Come away 
    with 
    me" 

    Cause 
    I love 
    you, 
    I love 
    ya, 

    I 
    love 
    ya 
    - that's 
    what she 
    said 

    I 
    love 
    ya, 
    love 
    ya 

    I'd 
    rather 
    speak 
    to 
    Satan 
    himself 

    Verse 7

    I 
    love 
    you, 
    I 
    love 
    you, 
    I 
    love 
    you 

    I 
    love 
    you, 
    I'm 
    the sleeper

      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.
