    Why 
    did 
    the 
    Verse 1
    little 
    girls 
    grow crooked 

    While 
    the 
    little 
    boys 
    grow tall 

    The 
    boys 
    were 
    taught 
    to 
    tumble 

    The 
    girls 
    told 
    not 
    to fall 

    The 
    girls 
    answered 
    the 
    telephone 

    The 
    boys 
    answered 
    the call 

    That's why 
    little 
    girls 
    grew 
    crooked 

    While 
    the 
    little 
    boys 
    grew 
    tall 

    Verse 2

    Why 
    did 
    the 
    little 
    girls 
    grow 
    crippled 

    While the 
    little 
    boys 
    grow strong 

    The 
    boys 
    allowed 
    to 
    come 
    of age 

    The 
    girls 
    just 
    came 
    along 

    The 
    girls 
    were 
    told 
    sing 
    harmonies 

    The 
    boys 
    could 
    all 
    sing 
    songs 

    That's 
    why little 
    girls 
    grew 
    crippled 

    While little 
    boys 
    grew strong 

    Verse 3

    Why did 
    the 
    little 
    girls 
    come 
    broken 

    While 
    the 
    little 
    boys 
    came 
    whole 

    The 
    little 
    boys 
    were 
    set aflame 

    The 
    girls 
    told 
    to fan 
    the coals 

    The boys 
    all 
    told 
    to be 
    themselves 

    While the 
    girls 
    were 
    told 

    play 
    the roles 

    That's why 
    little 
    girls 
    came 
    broken 

    While little 
    boys 
    came 
    whole 

    Verse 4

    Why 
    were 
    the 
    little 
    girls 
    all 
    frightened 

    To 
    be 
    just 
    what 
    they 
    are 

    The 
    boys 
    were 
    told 
    to 
    ask 
    themselves 

    How 
    high 
    how 
    far 

    The 
    girls 
    were told 
    to 
    reach 
    the shelves 

    While 
    the 
    boys 
    were 

    reaching 
    stars 

    That's why 
    little 
    girls 
    were 
    frightened 

    To 
    be 
    just 
    what 
    they 
    are 

    Verse 5

    And 
    still 
    they 
    bled 
    for 
    us all 

    As 
    the moon 
    rode 
    the sky 

    They carried 
    our 
    seed 

    When our 
    need 
    ran 
    high 

    They 
    fed 
    all 
    our chil
    dren 

    In 
    the night 
    as 
    they 
    cried 

    Womankind 
    wept 

    As 
    mankind 
    died 

    Interlude 1



    Why 
    were 
    the 
    Verse 6
    little 
    girls 
    left 
    hurtin' 

    When 
    all 
    the 
    boys 
    were 
    done 

    And 
    the girls 
    left 
    in 
    the 
    moonlight 

    When the 
    boys 
    went to 
    meet 
    the sun

    And 
    when 
    the girls 
    were 
    open 

    Why 
    had the 
    little 
    all 
    won? 

    That's 
    why little 
    girls 
    were 
    hurtin' 

    When 
    the 
    little 
    boys 
    were 

    done 

    Verse 7

    Why did 
    the 
    little 
    girls 
    grow 
    crooked 

    While 
    the little 
    boys 
    grew 
    tall 

    It's 
    maybe 
    because 
    the little 
    boys 

    Didn't 
    ever 
    have 
    to 
    grow 
    up 
    at

    • 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.
