    Verse 1
    Emma 
    tried 
    to 
    run 
    away, 

    I fol
    lowed 
    her 
    across 
    the 
    city, 

    She 
    went 
    out 
    to 
    the Easter 
    house, 

    Because 
    she 
    liked 
    the sound 
    of it. 

    Verse 2
    She 
    didn't 
    have 
    a single 
    penny, 

    She stuck 
    a finger 
    in 
    the 
    air, 

    She 
    tried 
    to flag 
    down 
    an 
    air
    plane, 

    I 
    sup
    pose 
    she needs 
    a holiday. 

    Verse 3
    I 
    put 
    my 
    arm 
    around 
    her 
    waist, 

    She put 
    me 
    on 
    the ground 
    with 
    Judo, 

    She 
    didn't 
    recognize 
    my 
    face, 

    She 
    wasn't 
    even 
    looking. 

    Verse 4
    Laura's 
    feeling 
    just 
    ideal, 

    Her 
    horoscope 
    was 
    nearly 
    perfect, 

    She's 
    thinking 
    of 
    something 
    to 
    do, 

    Because 
    she 
    is 
    The Birthday 
    Girl. 

    Verse 5
    She 
    walked 
    out 
    to 
    the 
    edge 
    of 
    town, 

    She saw 
    me lying 
    in 
    the 
    park, 

    She 
    took 
    Emma 
    by 
    the 
    hand, 

    They've 
    got 
    a 
    lot 
    in common. 

    Verse 6
    I'll 
    leave 
    them 
    to 
    do 
    what 
    they 
    want, 

    I'll 
    leave 
    them 
    to 
    do 
    what 
    they 
    need 
    to, 

    I'll 
    go 
    and 
    play 
    with 
    words 
    and 
    pictures, 

    I'll 
    admit 
    I'm 
    feeling 
    strange. 

    Interlude 1






    Verse 7
    I'm 
    not 
    as sad 
    as 
    Dostoevsky, 

    I'm 
    not 
    as 
    clever 
    as 
    Mark 
    Twain, 

    I'll 
    only 
    buy 
    a 
    book 
    for 
    the way 
    it looks, 

    And 
    then I 
    stick 
    it 
    on 
    the shelf 
    again. 

    Verse 8
    Now 
    I 
    could 
    tell 
    you 
    what 
    I'm 
    thinking, 

    But it 
    never 
    seems 
    to 
    do 
    you 
    good, 

    It's 
    beyond 
    me 
    what 
    a girl 
    can 
    see, 

    I'm 
    only 
    lu
    cid 
    when 
    I'm 
    writing 
    songs. 

    Verse 9
    This 
    is 
    just 
    a 
    modern 
    rock 
    song, 

    This 
    is 
    just 
    a sorry 
    lament, 

    We're 
    four 
    boys 
    in 
    corduroys, 

    We're not 
    ter
    rific 
    but 

    we're 
    competent. 

    Verse 10
    Stevie's 
    full 
    of 
    good 
    intentions, 

    Richards 
    into 
    rock 
    'n' 
    roll, 

    Stuart's 
    staying 
    in 
    and 

    he 
    thinks 
    it's 
    a sin, 

    That 
    he 
    has 
    to 
    leave 
    the 
    house 
    at 
    all. 

    Interlude 2




    Verse 11

    This 
    is 
    just 
    a 
    modern 
    rock 
    song, 

    This 
    is 
    just 
    a tender 
    affair, 

    I 
    count 
    "three, 

    four" 
    and 
    then 
    we start 
    to slow, 

    Because 
    a song 
    has 
    got to 
    stop 
    somewhere.

      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.
