    Verse 1
    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    I 
    rode 
    my 
    big 
    wheel 

    Down 
    a big 
    hill 

    No 
    helmet 
    on 

    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    I 
    found 
    a baby 
    bird 

    With 
    no 
    mother 

    I 
    took 
    it 
    in 

    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    Verse 2

    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    Thought 
    I 
    could 
    breakdance 

    In my 
    parachute 
    pant
    s 

    I 
    was 
    so 
    cool 

    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    I 
    had 
    no 
    money 

    Never 
    went 
    hungry 

    Thank 
    you, 
    mom 

    Verse 3
    As 
    we 
    go 
    through 
    the 
    years 

    Somehow 
    those 
    little 
    fears 

    Grow 
    into 
    something 
    else 

    Our 
    older 
    wiser 
    selves 

    So 
    now 
    I play 
    it safe 

    Oh, 
    me 
    of 
    little 
    faith 

    Could 
    learn 
    a 
    thing 
    or two 

    From 
    who 
    I 
    used 
    to 
    be 

    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    Verse 4

    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    I 
    had 
    no 
    regret
    s 

    No 
    big 
    secret
    s 

    Except 
    for one 

    I 
    liked 
    a 
    girl 

    I never 
    told 
    her 

    She 
    was 
    older 
    and 
    popular 

    Verse 5
    As 
    we 
    go 
    through 
    the 
    years 

    Somehow 
    those 
    little 
    fears 

    Grow 
    into 
    something 
    else 

    Our 
    complicated 
    selves 

    So now 
    I play 
    it safe 

    Oh, me 
    of little 
    faith 

    Could 
    learn 
    a thing 
    or two 

    From 
    who 
    I 
    used 
    to 
    be 

    Verse 6
    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    Each 
    night 
    I'd say 
    my 
    prayers 

    And 
    He 
    was 
    there 

    I slept 
    so 
    well 

    Verse 7
    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    When 
    I 
    was 
    young 

    When 
    I 
    was 
    young

      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.
