    Verse 1
    To 
    the east 
    the factories 
    stand 

    Like 
    fire-breathing 
    dragons 

    dragons 
    against 
    the 
    sky 

    And 
    from 
    their 
    throats 
    a scarlet 
    river 

    Burns 
    itself 
    into 
    smoky 
    lullabies 

    Over 
    neon 
    and 
    fluor
    escent 
    skies 

    Verse 2
    Valerie, 
    can 
    you 
    hear 
    those 
    engines 
    drone 

    I 
    wanted 
    to 
    go 
    to 
    Mexico 

    But 
    I'm stranded 
    here 
    alone 

    And 
    once 
    I 
    knew 
    a 
    true 
    love 

    It's 
    been 
    three 
    years 
    since 
    he's 
    gone 

    And 
    if 
    I 
    could 
    get 
    that 
    feeling 
    back 

    I'd 
    give 
    up 
    everything 
    I 
    own 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3
    16 days 
    since 
    I 
    left 
    Corona 

    And 
    I 
    traveled 
    to 
    this 
    carnival 

    town 
    near 
    Alberndeel 

    And I 
    rode 
    the 
    coaster 
    there 

    on 
    the 
    fairground 

    Twisted 
    backbone 
    of 
    a 

    beast 
    that 
    never 
    heals 

    And 
    I 
    left 
    some 
    skin 
    on 

    fortune's 
    wheel 

    Verse 4
    Valerie, 
    can 
    you 
    hear 
    those 
    engines 
    drone 

    I 
    wanted 
    to 
    go 
    to 
    Mexico 

    But 
    I'm stranded 
    here 
    alone 

    And 
    once 
    I 
    knew 
    a 
    true 
    love 

    It's 
    been 
    three 
    years 
    since 
    he's 
    gone 

    And 
    if 
    I 
    could 
    get 
    that 
    feeling 
    back 

    I'd 
    give 
    up 
    everything 
    I 
    own 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 5
    Everything's 
    in 
    slow 
    motion 
    now 

    In 
    this 
    little 
    border 
    town 

    I've 
    come 
    so 
    close 
    from 
    so 
    far 

    Just 
    to 
    hide 
    behind 
    these 
    windows 
    here 

    From 
    the 
    world 
    outside 

    I 
    watch 
    those 
    cars 
    and 
    trucks 

    raise 
    trails 
    of 
    dust 

    Down 
    the 
    road 
    as 
    they 
    pass 
    by 

    Verse 6
    Valerie, 
    can 
    you 
    hear 
    those 
    engines 
    drone 

    I 
    wanted 
    to 
    go 
    to 
    Mexico 

    But 
    I'm stranded 
    here 
    alone 

    And 
    once 
    I 
    knew 
    a 
    true 
    love 

    It's 
    been 
    three 
    years 
    since 
    he's 
    gone 

    And 
    if 
    I 
    could 
    get 
    that 
    feeling 
    back 

    I'd 
    give 
    up 
    everything 
    I 
    own 

    Everything 
    I 
    own 

    Everything I 
    own 

    Outro 1
    Everything 
    I 
    own

      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

      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.
