    Verse 1
    He swivels 
    his 
    head 

    Tears 
    his 
    eyes 
    from 
    the 
    screen 

    As 
    his 
    past 
    puts 
    him 
    back 
    in 
    Atlantic 
    City 

    There's 
    not 
    even 
    a 

    demon 
    in 
    Heaven 
    or 
    Hell 

    Is 
    it all 
    just 
    human 
    disguise 

    As 
    I 
    walk 
    down 
    the 
    aisle 

    And 
    I'm 
    Verse 2
    gone, 
    gone, 
    gone 
    (gone, 

    gone, gone spinning 
    slack 
    through 
    reality) 

    Now I'm 
    older 
    than 
    movies 
    (dance my way, 

    falling 
    up 
    through the 
    years) 

    Let 
    me 
    dance 
    away 
    (until I swivel 

    back round 
    then I fly, 
    fly, fly) 

    Now 
    I'm 
    wiser 
    than 
    dreams 
    (losing breath 

    underwater 
    well 
    I'm 
    gone, gone, gone) 

    Let 
    me fly, 
    fly, 

    fly 
    (spin slack 
    through 
    reality) 

    While I'm 
    touching 
    to
    morrow 
    (dance my 

    way, falling 
    up 
    through 
    the years) 

    (Until I swivel 
    back 
    round 
    then 
    I fly, 

    fly, fly) 

    And 
    I 
    know 
    who's 
    there 
    (losing breath 

    underwater 
    when 
    I'm gone, gone, gone) 

    When 
    silhouettes 
    fall 

    (spinning slack 
    through 
    reality) 

    Verse 3
    And 
    I'm 
    gone 

    Like 
    I'm 
    dancing 
    on 
    angels 

    And 
    I'm 
    gone 
    through 
    the 

    crack 
    in 
    the pas
    t 

    Verse 4
    Like 
    a dead 
    man 
    walking 

    Like 
    a 
    dead 
    man 
    walking 

    Verse 5

    Three 
    old 
    men 
    dancing 
    under 
    her 
    lamp 
    lights 

    Shaking 
    their 
    sex 
    in 
    the 
    bones 

    And 
    the boys 
    that 
    we 
    were 

    An 
    alien nation 
    in 
    therapy 

    Sliding 
    naked, 
    anew 

    Like 
    a 
    bad 
    tempered 
    child 

    On 
    the rain 
    slicked 
    streets 

    And 
    I'm 
    Verse 6
    gone, 
    gone, 
    gone 
    (gone, 

    gone, gone spinning 
    slack 
    through reality) 

    Now I'm 
    older 
    than 
    movies 
    (dance my 

    way, falling 
    up 
    through the 
    years) 

    Let 
    me 
    dance 
    away 
    (until I swivel 
    back 

    round then 
    I fly, fly, fly) 

    Now I'm 
    wiser 
    than 
    dreams 
    (losing breath underwater 
    well I'm 
    gone, 

    gone, gone) 

    Let 
    me fly, 
    fly, 

    fly 
    (spin slack through 
    reality) 

    While 
    I'm 
    touching 
    to
    morrow 
    (dance my 

    way, falling up 
    through the 
    years) 

    (Until I swivel 
    back round 
    then I 
    fly, 

    fly, fly) 

    And 
    I 
    know 
    who's 
    there 
    (losing breath underwater 
    when 
    I'm gone, 

    gone, gone) 

    When 
    silhouettes 
    fall 

    (spinning slack 
    through 
    reality) 

    Verse 7
    And 
    I'm gone 

    (Gone, 
    gone, gone 
    spinning 
    slack 

    through 
    reality) 

    (Dance my 
    way, 

    falling 
    up 
    through 
    the years) 

    (Until I 
    swivel 
    back 
    round 
    then 
    I 
    fly, 

    fly, fly) 

    (Los
    ing breath 
    underwater 
    well 
    I'm 
    gone, 

    Verse 8
    gone, gone) 

    (Spinning slack 
    through 
    reality) 

    (Dance my 
    way, 

    falling 
    up 
    through

    I'm 
    gone, 

    gone, gone)

    Verse 9
    And 
    I'm 
    gone 

    Like 
    I'm 
    dancing 
    on 
    angels 

    And 
    I'm 
    gone 
    through 

    the crack 
    in the 
    past 

    Like 
    a 
    dead 
    man 
    walking 

    Like 
    a 
    dead 
    man 
    walking

      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 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.
