    Verse 1
    A little 
    girl 
    puts 
    on 
    her skates 

    Sit
    down 
    on 
    the porch 

    and 
    waits 

    And 
    hopes 
    her 
    daddy 
    won't 

    be 
    long 

    One 
    more 
    call, 

    one 
    more 
    meet
    in' 

    Afternoon 
    turns 
    into 
    evenin' 

    Still 
    he ain't 
    made 

    it 
    home 

    Verse 2

    Thing
    that 
    matter 

    And 
    things 
    that 
    don't 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 3
    Another 
    place 
    someone 
    slams 
    door 

    Says, 
    "I 
    don't 
    love 
    you 

    anymore" 

    Looks 
    like 
    an
    other 
    sleepless 

    night 

    Tossin' 
    turnin' 
    on 
    the couch 

    He 
    wonders 
    if 
    they'll 
    work 
    it out 

    It's all 
    about bein' 
    happy 

    or bein' 
    right 

    Verse 4
    The thing
    that matter 


    And things 
    that don't 

    Verse 5

    We only 
    get 
    so 
    many 
    trips 

    around 
    the sun

    Some 
    things 
    matter, 

    some 
    things 
    don't 

    It's up 
    to you 
    to choose 
    which 
    ones 

    Interlude 2

    things 
    matter 
    some 
    things 
    don't

    up 
    to you 
    to choose 
    which ones 

    Verse 7
    So, 
    to
    night 
    as 
    I close 
    my 
    eyes 

    I pray, 
    "Lord 
    help me 
    realize" 

    Something 

    already 
    know

    There's 
    thing
    that matter 

    And 
    things 
    that don't

    A little girl 
    puts 
    on her 
    skates, 

    Sit
    s down 
    on 
    the porch 

    and waits 

    And hopes 
    her 
    daddy 
    won't 
    be 
    long

    • 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.
