    Verse 1
    I 
    was 
    just 
    a poor 
    young 

    little 
    ugly 
    thing 

    Momma 
    kicked 
    me 
    out, 
    just 
    shy 
    of 
    17 

    I 
    was 
    lookin' 
    for 
    love, 

    in 
    the fire, 
    in 
    the 
    flames 

    But 
    the 
    only 
    way 
    to love, 

    is to 
    get 
    yourself 
    burned 

    That's 
    how 
    I 
    became 
    the runaway 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 2
    I gave 
    my 
    hand 
    to 
    a man, 

    he 
    put 
    the 
    ring 
    on 
    me 

    He 
    couldn't 
    understand 
    why 
    he 
    was

    n't 
    just 
    like 
    me 

    I should've 
    known 
    by 

    the 
    look 
    in 
    his 
    eyes 

    We 
    looked 
    at 
    the same 
    guys 

    That's 
    when 
    I 
    realized 

    Verse 3
    No 
    hands 
    will 
    hold 
    me 

    I'll 
    always 
    be 
    lonely 

    Is there 
    someone 
    out 

    there 
    who 
    can 
    break 

    This 
    habit 
    of 
    going 

    There's 
    no 
    way 
    of 
    knowing 

    I 
    promise 
    I'll 
    always 
    be 
    a 

    little 
    runaway 

    Your 
    little 
    runaway 

    Verse 4

    If 
    you're 
    not 
    careful, 

    you'll 
    get 
    your 
    heart 
    broken 

    Take 
    me 
    as 
    an 
    example, 
    I'll 
    be 
    a token 

    I 
    used 
    to fall 
    head 
    over 
    feet 

    But 
    everyone 
    I 
    loved 
    deceived 
    me 

    So, 
    what 
    choice 
    does 
    that 
    leave 

    A 
    runaway 

    Verse 5

    You could 
    say 
    my 
    shadow 
    is 

    the 
    only 
    friend 
    of mine 

    But 
    it 
    gets 
    pretty 
    lonely 
    in 

    the night
    time 

    My shadow 
    is 
    almost 
    as 
    hard 
    to 
    see, 

    oh 

    Almost 
    as 
    hard 
    as 
    it 
    is 
    to 
    love 
    me 

    Verse 6
    A 
    runaway 

    No 
    hands 
    will 
    hold 
    me 

    I'll 
    always 
    be 
    lonely 

    Is there 
    someone 
    out 

    there 
    who 
    can 
    break 

    This 
    habit 
    of 
    going 

    There's 
    no 
    way 
    of 
    knowing 

    I 
    promise 
    I'll 
    always 
    be 
    a 

    little 
    runaway 

    I'll 
    be 
    a 
    runaway

      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.
