    Bright 
    night 
    girl, 

    you 
    make it 
    very 
    hard 
    for me 
    to 

    write 
    this 
    song 

    Bright 
    night girl, 
    what 
    am I gonna 
    do 

    now 
    you've 
    come 
    along 

    I've 
    been 
    through 
    all 
    me notebooks 

    and 
    all I 
    can 
    find 
    are 
    variations 

    on 
    a 
    theme 

    Of 
    my baby, 

    she done 
    me wrong 

    It 
    has 
    to be 
    said 
    that I 

    love 
    a 
    spot of 
    art, 

    don't 
    we all, 
    my 
    dear? 

    You 
    know they 
    say you 

    have to 
    suffer 
    for 
    your 
    art, 

    well, 
    you 
    could say 
    that 
    about 
    beer. 

    It's 
    like 
    I always 
    say 

    about 
    our Vinnie, 

    that's 
    Van Gogh 
    to you, 
    pet. 

    I 
    wish 
    he had 
    a happy 
    little 
    life, 

    we could 
    live without 
    the paintings. 

    And 
    that 
    poor 
    lad 
    should have 
    kept 
    his ear. 




    Yeah, 
    God 
    gave 
    me crit
    ical 

    The 
    tyranny 
    of memory 
    had lied 
    to 
    me 

    Said 
    that 
    I 
    had 
    no 
    wings 

    Stuck 
    together 
    with 
    sticky 
    tape 

    Bits 
    of 
    string 
    and 
    city 
    pins 

    How 
    am 
    I supposed 
    to write 
    a 
    song 

    When 
    you 
    won't 
    give me 

    the blues? 

    Brown 
    -eyed 
    girl, 

    you 
    make it 
    very 
    hard 
    for me 
    to 
    write 
    a 
    song 

    Brown 
    -eyed girl, 

    what am 
    I gonna 
    do 

    now 
    you've 
    come 
    along 

    I've 
    been 
    through 

    all me 
    notebooks, 
    honey, 

    and 
    all I 
    can 
    find 
    is variations 
    on 
    a theme 

    Of 
    my 
    baby, 

    she 
    done 
    me wrong 

    You 
    know 
    what I want 
    for my 
    birthday? 

    Yep, 
    you're 
    absolutely 
    right. 

    But 
    don't 
    bother to 
    wrap 
    it up. 


    How 
    am 
    I supposed 
    to write 
    a 
    song 

    When 
    you 
    won't 
    give me 

    the blues 

    You're 
    good 
    to me 
    and 
    I want you 

    You 
    scared 
    away 
    the 
    mule 

    I 
    was 
    ready 
    to fall 
    in 

    love, I 
    turned 
    around 

    An
    d 
    there 
    you were 

    On 
    the 
    squirt 
    and talking 
    dirt 

    Yeah, 
    gagging 
    me 
    critica 

    The 
    tyranny 
    of memory 
    had 
    lied 
    to me, 

    it's 
    sad 
    that 
    I 
    had 
    no 
    wing 

    I 
    was stuck 
    together 
    with 
    bits of 
    string 

    and 
    sticky 
    tape 
    and 
    a 
    safety 
    pin 

    How 
    am 
    I supposed 
    to 
    write 
    a song 

    when you 
    won't 
    give me 

    the blues? 

    You're 
    good 
    to 
    me 
    and I 
    want 
    you, 

    but you 
    scared 
    away 
    the 
    mule 

    I 
    was 
    inside 
    out 
    and 
    back to 
    front, 

    I 
    was 
    upside 
    down 

    I 
    was 
    tubed 
    after 
    Lafayette, 

    I was 
    up
    side 
    down 

    I've 
    known 
    love 
    before, 

    love 
    like the 
    love 
    of a 
    cop 
    or 
    a 
    thief 

    Ducking 
    and 
    diving, 

    getting away 
    just 
    by 

    the skin 
    of 
    your 
    teeth 

    Baby, 
    baby, 
    baby, 
    baby, 
    baby, 

    there's 
    a rainbow...

      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.
