    • Verse 1
    All 
    your 
    bitterness 
    and lies 

    Sting 
    like 
    tears 
    in 
    my 
    eyes 

    And a thou
    sand 
    love-sick 
    tunes 

    tunes 

    Won't 
    wash 
    away the 
    wounds 

    from my 
    mind 

    You've been 
    seen around, 

    you're 
    a 
    new 
    sensation 

    You 
    got a 
    better deal, 

    and 
    you 
    took his 
    invitation 

    You've been sitting 
    on 
    his lap 

    and 
    taking 
    his 
    dictation 

    Oh but 
    Verse 2
    mercy, 

    we 
    used to 
    love all 
    day 
    and 
    drive 
    all night 

    Oh 
    mercy, 
    jealousy 
    used 

    to whet 
    your 
    appet
    ite 

    Oh mercy, 
    we were 
    low 
    as dogs 

    and 
    high 
    as kites 

    Why 
    must I 
    plead 
    with 
    you darling 

    Why 
    must 
    I plead 
    with 
    you darling 

    Why 
    must 
    I 
    plead 
    with you 
    darling 

    For what's 
    already 
    mine 

    Verse 3

    Well my 
    friends 
    are 
    indiscreet 

    And 
    I sing 
    myself 
    to 
    sleep 

    I don't 
    mind 
    the 
    red 
    wine 

    Or the 
    pick-up line 
    line 
    as long 

    as it's 
    cheap 

    Oh I 
    ask you 
    what's 
    what 

    and you 
    say 
    I'm all 
    yours 

    I 
    ask 
    who your friend 
    is 
    and you 

    say it's 
    Santa 
    Claus 

    I ask 
    you to 
    come home, 

    You say you're 
    tired 
    of 
    being 
    indoors 

    Verse 4
    Oh 
    but mer
    cy, 
    you 
    know you 

    signed 
    on that 
    dotted 
    line 

    Oh mer
    cy, 
    you signed 

    yours 
    and I 
    signed 
    mine 

    Oh mercy, 

    you 
    said forever 
    till 
    the end 
    of time 

    Oh 
    why must 
    I plead 

    with you 
    darling 

    Why 
    must I 
    plead 
    with you 
    darling 

    Oh why 
    must 
    I plead 
    with you darling 

    For 
    what's already 
    mine 

    I 
    said why 
    must 
    I plead 
    with you darling 

    For 
    what's 
    already 
    mine

    • 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.”
