    Verse 1
    Got 
    a 
    call 
    from 
    an 
    old 
    friend 

    we'd 
    used 
    to 
    be 
    real 
    close 

    Said 
    he 
    couldn't 
    go 
    on 

    the 
    American 
    way 

    Closed 
    the 
    shop, 
    sold 
    the 
    house, 

    bought 
    a 
    ticket 
    to 
    the 
    west 
    coast 

    Now 
    he 
    gives 
    them 

    Interlude 1
    a 
    stand-up 
    routine 
    in 
    L.A. 





    Chorus 1
    I 
    don't 
    need 
    you 
    to 
    worry 
    for 
    me 

    'cause 
    I'm 
    alright 

    I 
    don't 
    want 
    you 
    to 
    tell 
    me 

    it's 
    time 
    to 
    come 
    home 

    I 
    don't 
    care 
    what 
    you 

    say 
    anymore 
    this 
    is 
    my 
    life 

    Go 
    ahead 
    with 
    your 
    own 
    life 
    leave 
    me 

    Bridge 1
    (a
    lone) 
    I 
    never 
    said 
    you 
    had 
    to 

    offer 
    me 
    a 
    second 
    chance 

    I 
    never 
    said 
    I 
    was 
    a 

    victim 
    of 
    circumstance 

    I 
    still 
    be
    long 

    Don't 
    get 
    me 
    wrong 

    And 
    you 
    can 
    speak 
    your 
    mind 

    But 
    not 
    on 
    my 
    time 

    Verse 2
    They 
    will 
    tell 
    you 
    you 

    can't 
    sleep 
    alone 
    in 
    a 
    strange 
    place 

    Then 
    they'll 
    tell 
    you 
    can't 

    sleep 
    with 
    somebody 
    else 

    Ah, 
    but 
    sooner 
    or 

    later 
    you 
    sleep 
    to 
    your 
    own 
    space 

    Either 
    way 
    it's 
    O.K.

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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 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.

      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.
