    Verse 1
    I 
    lose 
    my 
    grip, 

    I 
    drive 
    out 
    far 

    Past 
    fireworks 
    at 
    the 
    old 
    trailer 
    park 

    And 
    folding 
    chairs, 
    Amer
    ican 
    flags 

    Selling 
    tomatoes 
    at 
    five 
    bucks 

    a 
    bag 

    Verse 2

    When she 
    was 
    young, 
    she kept 
    to 
    herself 

    Now she 
    regrets 
    sending 

    me 
    straight 
    to 
    Hell 

    She 
    kissed 
    my 
    cheek, 

    she 
    touched 
    my 
    skin 

    She said 
    "You're 
    just 
    as stupid 

    as 
    I 
    was 
    back 
    then" 

    Verse 3

    If 
    I 
    burn 
    out 
    like 
    a 
    light 
    bulb 

    They'll 
    say 
    "She 
    wasn't 

    meant 
    for 
    that 
    life" 

    They'll put 
    it all 
    in 
    a 
    capsule 
    and 
    save 
    it 
    for 
    a 

    dark 
    night 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    When 
    we 
    were 
    kids, 
    free 
    as 
    the 
    air 

    With 
    a violence 
    craving 
    to 

    turn 
    up 
    somewhere 

    A tap 
    dancer, 
    a 
    memor
    ized 
    number 

    An 
    avalanche 
    of the 
    deep 

    red 
    clay 
    earth 

    Verse 5

    When 
    it got 
    bad, 
    Arkadelphia Road 

    I 
    couldn't 
    cry, 
    I just 
    pick 
    up 
    the load 

    And 
    feign 
    a strength, 
    try 
    to 
    force 
    your 
    hand 

    But 
    you 
    leave 
    a promise 

    wherever 
    it 
    may 
    land 

    Verse 6
    If 
    you 
    get 
    real 
    close 
    to 
    the 
    ending 

    I 
    hope 
    you know 
    I 
    did 
    what 
    I 
    could 

    We try 
    to 
    give 
    it 
    all 
    meaning 

    Glor
    ify 
    the 
    grain 
    of the 
    wood 

    Tell 
    ourselves 
    what's 
    beautiful 

    and 
    good 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 7
    I 
    hold 
    on 
    tight, 
    come 
    in 
    from 
    far 

    I 
    watch 
    the 
    baby 

    run 
    around 
    the yard 

    Get 
    lonely 
    for 
    what 
    I'll 
    never 
    know 

    Losing 
    the thread 
    of 
    a story, 

    overtold 

    Verse 8
    If we 
    luck 
    out, 
    free 
    as 
    the 
    air 

    With 
    an unrest 
    craving 
    to spill 

    everywhere 

    We'll weigh 
    what's 
    good 
    and 
    get 
    real 
    old 

    Keep 
    driving 
    straight 
    searching 

    for 
    a 
    heart 
    of 
    gold 

    Verse 9

    If 
    we 
    make 
    pleasant 
    conver
    sation 

    Hope 
    you 
    can't 
    see 
    what's 

    burning 
    in me 

    To see 
    a slip 
    as 
    a failure 

    A balance 
    I 
    couldn't 
    keep 

    You 
    count 
    the rings 
    for truth 
    you'll 

    Outro 1
    never 
    cheat

      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 🙂

      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.
