    Verse 1
    This town 

    was a 
    lovers 
    stage 

    But now 
    you 
    can't 
    recog
    nize 

    The 
    streetlights 
    that are 

    daggers 
    to 
    your 
    eye

    You can't 
    find 
    your bear
    ings 

    You're slip
    ping 
    into 
    the 
    ground 

    The 
    scene 
    has 
    no 
    color 
    and no 
    sound 

    Verse 2
    You still 
    be
    lieve 
    in me 

    Af
    ter 
    the 
    things 
    I've done 

    You 
    fear 
    for 
    what 
    we have 
    be
    come 

    The ground 
    is 
    un
    even 

    We stumble 
    from 
    day 
    to day 

    You shelter 
    where 
    it's easy 

    Although your 
    feet 
    are like 
    lead 

    But you 
    gotta 
    get 
    under
    way 

    Drag 
    your 
    heart 
    up 
    to 
    the starting 
    Verse 3
    line 

    Forget 
    the ghosts 
    that 
    make 

    you old 
    before 
    your 
    time 

    It's 
    too 
    easy 
    to get 
    left 
    be
    hind 

    know you've 
    been 
    kicked 
    around 

    But 
    tie 
    up your 
    thoughts 
    and lay 
    them 
    down 

    on 
    me 

    Verse 4

    Each heart 
    is 
    paper 
    kite 
    blown 

    around 
    by 
    the breeze 

    Love won't 
    rest 
    'til it 
    brings 

    you to 
    your knees 

    Some 
    find 
    it 
    easy, 

    some 
    will never 
    even 
    know 

    You 
    think 
    you've done 

    your jour
    ney 

    Then you 
    stumble 
    and 
    find 
    that there's 

    such 
    a long 
    way 
    to go 

    Drag 
    your heart 
    up 
    to 
    the starting 
    Verse 5
    line 

    Forget 
    the ghosts 
    that 
    make 

    you old 
    before 
    your 
    time 

    It's 
    too 
    easy 
    to get 
    left 
    be
    hind 

    know you've 
    been 
    kicked 
    around 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    lost 
    and not 
    be 
    found 

    But 
    let's 
    take the 
    back 
    way 
    into 
    town 

    Drink to 
    the 
    bad 
    times 

    Lay 
    them down 
    on 
    me 


    Verse 6
    Girl, 
    still 
    be
    lieve 
    in you 

    You're 
    too 
    good to 
    fall 
    so 
    low 

    We're 
    gonna 
    find 
    better 
    life 
    I know 

    Things 
    will be 
    clear
    er 

    As soon 
    as we 
    make 
    a start 

    We'll be 
    that much 
    near
    er 

    We're too 
    old 
    to 
    just 
    stand 

    here 
    waiting 
    to 
    break 
    apart 

    Drag 
    your 
    heart 
    up 
    to 
    the starting 
    Verse 7
    line 

    Forget 
    the ghosts 
    that 
    make 
    you 

    old 
    before 
    your 
    time 

    It's 
    too 
    easy 
    to get 
    left 
    be
    hind 

    know you've 
    been 
    kicked 
    around 

    But 
    tie 
    up your 
    thoughts 
    and lay 

    them 
    down 
    on 
    me 

    On 
    me, 
    on 
    me

    • 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.
