    Verse 1
    Smoke 
    it 
    flies 
    from 
    whisky 
    mouths 

    Vagabonds 
    walk 
    this 
    suit
    case 
    town 

    Summer 
    left 
    us 
    beckoning 

    The 
    cottonwoods 
    were 
    all 
    worn 
    out 

    Night 
    comes 
    fixing 
    on 
    the 
    day 

    And 
    the 
    universe 
    reigned 
    again 

    While 
    the 
    wheels 
    roll 

    to 
    find 
    flickering 
    light 

    Chorus 1
    While 
    you 
    were 
    sleeping 

    was 
    turning 
    the 
    dials 

    And 
    walled 
    up 
    your 
    kingdom 

    with 
    radio 
    wires 

    And 
    the 
    bells 
    of 
    the 
    choir 

    came 
    in 
    low 
    and 
    rumbling 

    Oh, 
    you 
    should 
    have 
    heard 
    them 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 2
    Living 
    here 
    in 
    this 
    city 
    on 
    fire 

    well 
    I've 
    been 
    fine 

    Just 
    dancing 
    drunk 
    above 
    the 
    street 

    Me 
    the 
    ghost 
    of 
    Caro
    line 

    And 
    that 
    was 
    me, 
    you 
    know, 
    calling 
    up 
    above 

    From 
    the 
    steeples 
    in 
    the 
    church 
    yard 

    Watch 
    the 
    wheels 
    roll 

    to 
    find 
    an
    other 
    place 
    home 

    Chorus 2
    While 
    you 
    were 
    sleeping 

    you 
    bet 
    that 
    might 

    Walk 
    this 
    empty 
    northern 
    hem
    i
    sphere 
    wide 

    And 
    the 
    kingdom 
    it 
    came, 

    well, 
    it 
    all 
    fell 
    down 

    It 
    all 
    fell 
    to 
    dust 

    Bridge 1
    Watch 
    it 
    all 
    fly 
    around 
    us 

    Watch 
    it 
    all 
    fly 
    around 
    us 





    Outro 1
    While 
    you 
    were 
    sleeping 

    was 
    turning 
    the 
    dials 

    And 
    walked 
    this 
    empty 

    northern 
    hem
    i
    sphere 
    wide

    • 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.
