    • Verse 1
    I'm up 
    on 
    the 
    tight 
    wire 

    One 
    side's 
    ice 
    and one 
    is 
    fire 

    It's 
    a 
    circus 
    game 
    with 

    you 
    and me 

    Verse 2
    I'm up 
    on 
    the 
    tight 
    rope 

    One 
    side's 
    hate 
    and one 
    is 
    hope 

    But 
    the 
    top 
    hat 
    on 
    my 
    head 
    is 
    all you 
    see 

    Verse 3
    And 
    the 
    wire 
    seems 
    to 
    be 

    the only 
    place 
    for 
    me 

    A 
    comedy 
    of errors 
    and I'm 
    falling 

    Like 
    a 
    rubber-neck 
    giraffe, 
    giraf
    fe, 

    you 
    look 
    into 
    my 
    pas
    t 

    Well, 
    baby 
    you're 
    just 
    too 

    blind 
    to 
    see 

    Verse 4
    I'm up 
    in the 
    spotlight 

    Oh, does 
    it 
    feel 
    right 

    Oh, the 
    alti
    tude 
    seems 

    to get 
    to me 

    Verse 5
    I'm up 
    on the 
    tight 
    wire 

    Flanked 
    by 
    life 
    and 
    the funeral 
    pyre 

    Putting 
    on 
    a show 
    for you 
    to 
    see 


    Verse 6

    Like 
    a 
    rubber-neck 
    giraffe, 
    giraf
    fe, 

    you 
    look 
    into 
    my 
    pas
    t 

    Well, 
    baby 
    you're 
    just 
    too 
    blind 
    to 
    see 

    Verse 7
    I'm up 
    in the 
    spotlight 

    Oh, 
    does 
    it 
    feel 
    right 

    Oh, 
    the 
    altitude 
    really 
    gets 
    to 
    me 

    I'm 
    up 
    on the 
    Verse 8
    tight 
    wire 

    Flanked 
    by life 
    and 
    the funeral 
    pyre 

    Putting 
    on 
    a 
    show 
    for 
    you 
    to see

      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.
