Key: C# minor•BPM: 92
Verse 1
Am
F
It's true there were all the men
C
you knew were demons
Who said they were through
G
with dealing
Am
every time they gave you shelter
G
I know that I'm kind of mad
Am
it's hard to hold the hand of anyone
G
Who reaching for the sky just to surrender
Am
G
Who is reaching for the sky
Am
just to surrender
F
And then sweeping out the jokers
C
that he left behind
G
You find he did not leave you very much,
Am
not even laughter
G
Like any dealer,
Am
he was watching for the card
G
that is so high and wild,
Am
could ever need to deal another
G
He was just some Joseph
Am
looking for a ma jor
G
He was just some Joseph
Am
looking for a ma jor

Verse 2
G
Am
I told you when I came, was a stranger
G
Am
I told you when I came, I was a stranger
F
C
But now another stranger seems to want
you to ignore his dreams
G
as though they were the
Am
burden of some other
G
We've seen that man before,
Am
his golden heart, his magic cards,
G
but now it's rusted from
Am
the elbow to the finger.
G
And he wants to trade the game,
Am
he plays for shelter.
G
Yes, he wants to trade the game,
Am
he knows the shelter.
F
C
You hate to watch another tired man
lay out his hand
G
like he was giving up the
Am
only thing for her
G
And while he talks with
dreams to sleep,
Am
notices there's a highway
G
that is curling up like smoke
Am
above his shoulder
G
It's curling just like smoke
Am
above his shoulder
F
You turn around,
I can't sit down,
C
but something makes you turn around
G
The door is open,
Am
you can't close your shutter
G
Am
You try to handle it, the road, it opens,
but you can't be afraid
G
It's you, my love,
Am
you who are the stranger
G
It's you, my love,
Am
F
C
you who are the stranger
G
I think it's time to board
Am
another
G
Please un derstand I never
Am
had a secret chart
G
To get me to the heart of this
Am
or any other matter
G
When he talks like this
Am
you don't know what he's after
G
You speak like this,
Am
you don't know what he's after
F
But it's me tomorrow
C
if you choose to fall ashore
Beneath the fridge that
G
they are building on
Am
Some endless river
G
Honey leaves the platform
Am
called a sleeping car
That's formed, you realize
G
he's only advertising
Am
One more shelter
G
And it comes to you,
never was a stranger
Am
G
And you say okay,
Am
regret you some place later
F
And then sweeping up the jokers
C
that he left behind
G
You cry, and he did not leave you very much
Am
I even laughed at him
G
Like any dealer,
Am
he was watching for the card
G
But it's so high, why?
Am
We'll never meet a deal, never
G
He was just some Joseph
Am
looking for a feature
G
He was just some Joseph
Am
looking for a feature
F
That meeting on your windowsill
C
And they'll say, they'll say one day
G
you caused his will to weaken
Am
With your love and warmth and shelter
G
And they're taking from his wallet
Am
an old schedule of trains
They'll say
G
I told you when I came
Am
I was a stranger
G
I told you when I came
Am
I was a stranger
G
I told you when I came
Am
Am
I was a stranger
You

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
