    • Verse 1
    Will 
    I 
    have 
    learned 
    so 
    very 
    little 

    When 
    these 
    bones 
    are 
    old 
    and 
    brittle? 

    I 
    wait 
    to 
    talk 
    when 
    I 
    should 
    listen 

    And 
    cloud 
    mistakes 
    with 
    false 
    revisions 

    Verse 2
    All 
    my 
    friends 
    are 
    forward-thinking 

    Getting 
    Getting 
    hitched 

    and 
    quitting 
    drinking 

    An
    d I 
    can 
    feel 
    them 
    pulling 
    away 

    As 
    I'm 
    resigned 
    to stay 
    the same 

    Verse 3
    And 
    you 
    can't 
    even 
    begin 

    to 
    know 

    How 
    many 
    times 
    I've 
    told 
    my

    self 
    "I 
    told 
    you 
    so" 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 4
    I 
    was 
    once 
    a 
    loyal 
    lover 

    Whose 
    lips 
    did 
    never 
    seek 
    another's 

    But 
    now 
    each 
    love's 
    more 
    like 
    a 
    match 

    A 
    blinding 
    spark 
    that 
    burns 
    out 
    fast 

    And they 
    all 
    Verse 5
    conclude 
    with 
    the 

    same 
    sentence: 

    "I've never 
    met 
    someone 

    more 
    self-centered 

    Who 
    Who 
    thinks 
    that 
    life 
    with 

    a 
    nice 
    girl's 
    like 

    Waiting 
    for 
    a 
    bus 
    to 
    work" 

    Verse 6
    An
    d you 
    can't 
    even 

    begin 
    to 
    know 

    How 
    many

    I've 
    told 
    my

    self 
    "I 
    told 
    you 
    so" 

    And 
    you 
    can't 
    even 
    begin 
    to 
    believe 

    There's so 
    many 
    bridges 
    en
    gulfed 
    in 

    flames 
    be
    hind 
    me 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 7
    If 
    you 
    deem 
    it 
    so 

    Just 
    cut 
    the 
    cord 
    and 
    go 

    You'll 
    be 
    fine 

    There's 
    plenty 
    of 
    hills 
    to climb 

    Interlude 3

    so" 

    And

    believe 

    There's so 
    many 
    bridges 
    engulfed 

    in 
    flames 
    behind 
    me

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
