Verse 1
Em

Why burn poor and lonely?

Under a bowl
D

Or under a lamp shade
Em

Or on the shelf beside the bed

Where at night you lay turning

Like a door on its hinges

First on your left side
G
D

Then on your right side
Em

Then on your left side again
Verse 2
Em


Why burn poor and lonely?

Tell all the stones

We're gonna make a building
G
D

They'll be cut into shape

And set into place
Em

Or if you'd rather be a window

I'll gladly be the frame

Reflecting any kind words
G

We'll let in all the blame
D
Em

And ru in our reputation all the same
E
Em

So never mind our plan making

We'll start living

Anyway
G

Aren't you unbearably sad?
D
Em

Then why burn so poor and lonely?
Verse 3
Em

We'll be like torches

We'll be like torches
G

We'll be like torches
D

We'll be torches together
Em

Torches together
Verse 4
Em

We'll be like torches

We'll be like torches

With whatever respect
G

Our tattered dignity demands
D

Torches together

Verse 5
Em

Why pluck one string?
G

What good is just one note?
D
Em

Oh one string sounds fine I guess

But we were once one note

We weren't lonely wheat
G

Quietly ground into grain
D

One light and momentary pain
Em

So why the safe distance?

This curious look

Why tear out single pages,
G

When you can throw away the book?
D

Why pluck one string when you can
Em

Strum the guitar?

Strum the guitar

Strum the guitar

Strum the guitar

With no beginning
G

With no end
D

Take down the guitar

And strum the guitar
E
A
E

Strum the guitar if you're afraid

And I'm afraid
Em

And everyone's afraid

And everyone knows it
G
D

But we don't have to be afraid

  • 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.
