    Verse 1
    was 
    talkin' 
    to Chuck 

    in 
    his 
    Genghis 
    Khan 
    suit 

    And 
    his 
    wiz
    ard's 
    hat 

    He spoke 
    of 
    his 
    movie 
    and 
    how 
    he 
    was 

    makin' 
    a new 
    sound 
    track 

    And 
    then 
    we 
    spoke 
    of 
    kid

    on 
    the coast 

    And 
    dif
    ferent 
    types 
    of 
    organic 
    soap 

    And 
    the way 
    suicides 
    don't 
    leave 
    notes, 

    Then 
    we spoke 
    of 
    Lo
    raine, 

    Verse 2
    always 
    back 
    to 
    Lorraine 


    was speakin' 
    to 
    Bill 
    who 
    was 
    given 

    to 
    pills 
    and small 
    racing 
    cars 

    He 
    had 
    given 
    them 
    up 
    since 
    his 
    last 
    crack-up 

    had 
    had 
    carried 
    him 
    too 
    far 

    Then 
    we 
    spoke 
    of 
    the movies 
    and 
    verse 

    And 
    the 
    way 
    an 
    act
    ress 
    held 
    her 
    purse 

    And 
    the 
    way 
    life 
    at 
    times 
    can 
    get 
    worse, 

    Then 
    we 
    spoke 
    of 
    Lo
    raine, 

    always 
    back 
    to 
    Lorraine 

    Verse 3
    Ah, 
    she's 
    a wild 
    child, 

    and 
    nobody 
    can 
    get 
    at 
    her 

    She's 
    wild 
    child, 
    oh, 

    and 
    nobody 
    can 
    get 
    to her 

    Sleepin' 
    out 
    on 
    the 
    street, 
    Verse 4

    oh, 
    livin' 
    all 
    alone 

    Without 
    house 
    or 
    home 
    and 

    then 
    she 
    asked 
    you, 
    please, 

    Hey, 
    baby, 

    can 
    have 
    some spare 
    change 

    Oh, can 
    break 
    your 
    heart 

    Verse 5
    She's 
    wild 
    child, 

    she's 
    wild 
    child 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 6
    was 
    talkin' 
    to 
    Betty 
    about 
    her 

    auditions, how 
    they 
    made 
    her 
    ill 

    But 
    life 
    in 
    the theater, 
    is 
    certainly 
    fraught 

    With 
    many 
    spills 
    and 
    chills 

    But 
    she'd 
    come 
    down 

    af
    ter 
    some 
    wine 

    Which 
    is 
    what 
    hap
    pens 

    most 
    of 
    the time 

    Then 
    we 
    sat 
    an
    both 
    spoke 
    in 
    rhymes 

    Till 
    we spoke 
    of 
    Loraine, 

    ah, always 
    back 
    to 
    Lorraine 

    Verse 7

    was 
    talking 
    to 
    Ed 
    who'd 
    been 
    re
    ported 

    dead 
    by 
    mu
    tual 
    friends 

    He 
    thought 
    it 
    was 
    funny 
    that 
    had 

    no 
    money 
    to spend 
    on 
    him 

    So 
    we 
    both 
    shared 
    piece 

    of sweet 
    cheese 

    And 
    sang 
    of 
    our 
    lives 
    and 
    our dreams 

    And 
    how 
    thing
    can come 

    apart 
    at 
    the seams 

    And 
    we 
    talk 
    of 
    Lorraine, 

    always 
    back 
    to 
    Lorraine 

    Verse 8

    She's 
    wild 
    child, 
    oh, 

    and 
    nobody 
    can 
    get 
    at 
    her 

    She's 
    wild 
    child, 
    oh, 

    and 
    nobody 
    can 
    get 
    to 
    her 

    Verse 9
    Sleepin' 
    out 
    on 
    the street, 

    oh, 
    livin' 
    all 
    alone 

    Without 
    house 
    or 
    home 
    and 

    then 
    she 
    asked 
    you, 
    please, 

    Oh, 
    baby, 
    can 
    have 
    some spare 
    change 

    Now 
    can 
    break 
    your 
    heart?" 

    Verse 10
    She's 
    wild 
    child, 
    she's 
    wild 
    child

    • 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.
