    Verse 1
    You 
    can 
    hold 
    her 
    hand 

    And 
    show 
    her 
    how 
    you 
    cry 

    Ex
    plain 
    to 
    her 
    your 
    weakness 

    so 
    she 
    understands 

    And 
    then 
    roll 
    o
    ver 
    and 
    die 

    You 
    can 
    brave 
    decisions 

    Before 
    you 
    crumble 
    up  
    in
    side 

    Spend 
    your 
    time 
    asking 

    everyone 
    else's 
    permission 

    Then 
    run 
    a
    way 
    and 
    hide 

    Pre-chorus 1
    Or 
    you 
    can 
    sit 
    on 
    chimneys 

    With 
    some 
    fire 
    up 
    your 
    ass 

    No 
    need 
    to 
    know 
    what 
    you're 
    doing 

    or 
    waiting 
    for 

    But 
    if 
    any
    one 
    should 
    ask 

    Chorus 1
    Tell 
    them 
    I've 
    been 
    licking 
    coconut 
    skins 

    And 
    we've 
    been 
    hanging 
    out 

    Tell 
    them 
    God 
    just 
    dropped 
    by 

    to 
    forgive 
    our 
    sins 

    And 
    relieve 
    us 
    our 
    doubt 

    Larala,

    Verse 2
    Oh, 
    you 
    can 
    hold 
    her 
    eggs 

    But 
    your 
    basket 
    has 
    hole 

    Or 
    you 
    can 
    lie 
    be
    tween 
    her 
    legs 

    and 
    go 
    looking 
    for 

    Tell 
    her 
    you're 
    searching 
    for 
    her 
    soul 

    You 
    can 
    wait 
    for 
    ages 

    Watch 
    your 
    compost 
    turn 
    to 
    coal 

    But 
    time 
    is  
    con
    tagious 

    And 
    everybody's 
    getting 
    old 

    Pre-chorus 2
    So 
    you 
    can 
    sit 
    on 
    chimneys 

    With 
    some 
    fire 
    up 
    your 
    ass 

    No

      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.
