    Verse 1
    The thing 
    about 
    dreams, 

    Is that 
    everything 
    seems, 

    Like you're 
    riding 
    a wave. 

    It's 
    been 
    forming 
    all 
    day 

    in 
    your 
    mind. 

    Verse 2

    The thing 
    about 
    time, 

    It's 
    all 
    in 
    your 
    mind. 

    Days 
    turn 
    to 
    weeks 
    turn 
    to 
    years 

    turn 
    to 
    infinite 
    signs, 

    What 
    you're 
    leavin' 
    behind. 

    Verse 3

    And 
    the hell 
    with 
    the 
    rest, 

    You 
    gave 
    them 
    your 
    best. 

    You 
    talk 
    through 
    your teeth 

    And 
    the black 
    cigarettes 

    And 
    your 
    hand. 

    Verse 4
    I've 
    always 
    believed 

    You 
    were more 
    than 
    impossible, 

    More 
    than 
    you seem 

    And 
    hardly 
    responsible 
    for 
    my 
    life, 

    For 
    my 
    eyes. 

    Let's stay 
    the night. 

    We'll 
    leave 
    with 
    the 
    sun

    rise. 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 5
    The thing 
    about me, 

    Is I wanted 
    to 
    be, 

    More 
    than 
    just 
    friends 

    And 
    hardly 
    acquaintances. 

    I, 
    I wanna 
    know 
    why. 

    Verse 6
    Turn 
    in 
    your sleep, 

    The secrets 
    you 
    keep, 

    The 
    things 
    that 
    you 
    bury 
    so 
    deeply, 

    discreetly 
    in
    side. 

    My, 
    oh 
    my. 

    Verse 7
    And 
    the hell 
    with 
    the words, 

    Or 
    haven't 
    you 
    heard? 

    Nobody 
    says 
    what 
    they 
    mean 

    'Til 
    the second 
    or 
    third 

    Whiskey 
    ride. 

    Verse 8
    I've 
    always 
    believed 

    You 
    were more 
    than 
    impossible, 

    More 
    than 
    you seem 

    And 
    hardly 
    responsible 
    for 
    my 
    life, 

    For 
    my 
    eyes. 

    Let's 
    stay 
    the night. 

    We'll 
    leave 
    with 
    the 
    sunrise. 

    Verse 9

    The thing 
    about 
    love, 

    It's 
    never 
    enough. 

    Circumstance 
    changes 

    And 
    life's 
    always 
    calling 
    your 
    bluff. 

    Enough 
    is 
    enough. 

    Verse 10

    And 
    when 
    you sleep, 

    You're 
    alone. 

    When 
    you dream 
    you're 
    just 
    one 

    Of a 
    million 
    small 
    pieces. 

    My 
    darling 
    I see 
    you, 
    I'm 
    one. 

    Verse 11

    I've 
    always 
    believed 

    We 
    were more 
    than 
    impossible. 

    You're 
    more 
    than 
    you seem 

    And 
    hardly 
    responsible 
    for my 
    life, 

    For my 
    eyes. 

    Verse 12
    And 
    now 
    I've said 
    too 
    much, 

    I'm 
    not 
    givin' 
    up. 

    I 
    can't 
    carry 
    the weight 

    Of 
    this 
    over
    filled 
    cup. 

    I just 
    close 
    my 
    eyes 

    Like 
    you're 
    close 
    to 
    the touch 
    and 
    I'll 
    dream, 

    Verse 13
    dream. 


    You're 
    not 
    what 
    you seem. 

    Outro 1
    You're 
    not 
    what 
    you seem.

      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.
