    Verse 1
    We got 
    married 
    early 

    And 
    just 
    a little 
    bit 
    late 

    Baby 
    came 
    too 
    early 

    But 
    some 
    things 
    just 
    can't 
    wait 

    We 
    were 
    just 
    beginning 

    But 
    it 
    was 
    very 
    clear 

    We 
    grew 
    up 
    little 
    bit 
    that 
    year 

    Verse 2

    caught 
    on 
    as a 
    meter 
    man 

    You 
    were caught 
    at 
    home 

    When 
    I started 
    night 
    school 

    You 
    ended 
    up 
    alone 

    But 
    you 
    had 
    another 
    baby 

    While 
    had 
    my 
    career 

    And 
    we 
    grew 
    up 
    little 
    bit 

    We 
    grew 
    up 
    little 
    bit 

    We 
    grew 
    up 
    little 
    bit 
    that 
    year 

    Verse 3
    They put 
    me 
    in 
    a office 
    job 

    A young 
    man 
    on 
    the move 

    We bought 
    a house 
    in 
    Shaker 
    Heights 

    You 
    supervised 
    the move 

    We 
    were cashing 
    check
    s, 

    you were 
    chan
    ging 
    children 

    While 
    played 
    engineer 

    And 
    we 
    were 
    growing 
    ever 
    faster 

    Every 
    year 

    Verse 4

    got 
    bored 
    of kilowatts 

    You 
    were tired 
    of 
    kids 

    I started 
    staying 
    out 
    at night 

    And 
    soon 
    that's 
    what 
    you 
    did 

    At 
    parties 
    we'd 
    go 
    separately 

    You'd 
    wiggle 
    and 
    I'd 
    leer 

    And 
    we 
    were 
    grow
    ing 
    faster 

    We 
    were 
    growing 
    ever 
    faster 

    We 
    were 
    growing 
    ever 

    faster 
    every 
    year 

    Verse 5
    You 
    learned 
    to 
    live 
    in 
    silence 

    learned 
    to 
    live 
    in 
    lies 

    And 
    we 
    both 
    igored the 
    empty 

    spaces 

    Growing 
    in 
    our 
    eyes 

    Your 
    breath 
    became 

    gin 
    and 
    tonic 

    Mine 
    became 
    beer 

    And 
    we 
    grew 
    up 
    little 
    more 
    last 
    year 

    Verse 6
    Today 
    at 
    work 
    they passed 
    me 
    by 

    And 
    promoted 
    John 
    instead 

    I came 
    home 
    to find 
    you'd 
    wrecked 
    the 
    car 

    I guess 
    lost 
    my 
    head 

    Well, 
    I can't 
    be
    lieve 
    hit 
    you 

    But 
    the rage 
    came 
    on 
    so 
    strong 

    Ah, 
    where 
    did 
    we 
    go 

    wrong? 

    Verse 7

    As 
    you sit 
    there 
    crying 

    wonder 
    who 
    you 
    are 

    The 
    part
    ner-stranger-friend 

    and 
    and 
    and 
    foe 

    Who's 
    come 
    with 
    me 
    this 
    far 

    We 
    stand 
    here 
    in 
    the 
    ashes 

    And 
    I guess 
    it 
    is 
    quite 
    clear 

    We 
    did 
    not 
    really 
    grow 
    too 
    much 

    Each 
    year 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 8
    So 
    you say 
    we're 
    going 
    nowhere 

    Well I 
    know 
    that's 
    where 

    we've 
    been 

    Still 
    can't 
    help 
    wondering 

    Can 
    we 
    begin 
    again? 

    feel 
    so 
    full 
    of 
    questions 

    Curi
    osity 
    and 
    fear 

    But 
    could 
    we 
    grow 
    little 
    bit 

    Could 
    we 
    grow 
    little 
    bit 

    Can 
    we 
    grow 
    a little 
    bit 
    this 
    year?

    • 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.
