    • Verse 1
    It 





    would simply 
    say 
    everything, 

    If 
    you 
    would, 
    take 
    a pen 
    and 

    Write 
    my 
    name 
    on 
    friend, 

    Who 
    never 
    cared 
    to 
    let 

    me 
    inâ?¦ 

    Verse 2
    Then 
    take 
    a fast 
    ravine, 

    That 
    for 
    three 
    years 
    swimmin' 

    straight 
    up 
    stream, 

    And 
    the wind, 

    The wind 
    will 
    drag 
    me 
    down 
    in 

    the 
    endâ?¦ 

    Verse 3
    You live 
    inside 
    my 
    wall, 
    and 
    I, 

    I reach 
    back 
    and hit 
    you 
    harder 
    than 

    God 
    fallsâ?¦ 

    Christ 
    amen, 
    amen, 

    amenâ?¦ 

    Verse 4
    You're such 
    a 
    line 
    to 
    break, 
    but 
    I'm, 

    I'm 
    so 
    scared 
    to make 

    a fucking 
    mis
    take 

    In 
    the 
    endâ?¦ 

    But I 
    just 
    want 
    to 
    be 
    happy 
    again, 



    Againâ?¦. 

    Verse 5
    Until 
    it 
    all 
    falls 
    down, 

    And 
    where 
    does 
    that 
    leave 
    me? 

    With 
    things, 
    things, 

    I've 
    got 
    so 
    many 
    things 

    to 
    sayâ?¦ 

    And 
    with 
    a broken 
    heart, 

    And 
    a straight 
    face, 

    I'm saying 
    brotherâ?¦ 

    Help meâ?¦ 

    Brother 
    would 
    you 
    help 
    me? 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 6
    It's 
    just 
    a nat
    ural 
    phase 
    that 
    I, 

    I 
    go 
    through, 
    and then it's 
    taken 
    away, 

    And 
    then 
    bam, 
    bam 
    I'm 
    fixed, 

    I'm fixed, 
    I'm 
    fixed, 

    I'm 
    fixedâ?¦ 

    Verse 7
    But 
    I'm in 
    another 
    place 
    to 
    be 
    where 
    I, 

    I can't 
    sleep 
    without 
    the thought 

    Of 
    me 
    being 
    so, 

    So 
    dam
    n 
    sick, 

    But 
    I'm sick, 
    I'm sick, 

    I'm 
    sickâ?¦ 

    So take 
    this 
    song, 
    Verse 8

    take 
    this song 
    awayâ?¦ 

    Until 
    it 
    all 
    falls 
    down, 

    And where 
    does 
    that 
    leave 
    me? 

    With 
    things, 
    things, 

    I've 
    got 
    so 
    many 
    things 
    to 
    sayâ?¦ 

    And 
    with 
    a broken 
    heart, 

    and 
    a 
    straight 
    faceâ?¦ 

    And he 
    always 
    said, 

    Reach 
    for 
    the 
    girl, 
    reach 
    for the 
    girl, 

    And 
    hold 
    her 
    closeâ?¦ 

    Verse 9
    Believe 
    you 
    can 
    shine 

    when 
    you're silver, 

    And I 
    promise 
    you 
    gold, 

    I promise 
    you 
    goldâ?¦ 

    And whenever 
    you're 
    dark 
    inside, 

    Don't 
    let 
    goâ?¦ 

    Remember 
    there's 
    Verse 10
    rain, 

    And there's 
    candy, 

    And 
    Christ
    masy 
    winter 
    snow, 

    The snow, 
    the 
    snowâ?¦ 

    Verse 11
    And remember 
    I 
    love 
    you 
    the same, 

    And I'll 
    strangle 
    your 
    painâ?¦ 

    And he 
    tells 
    me 
    to sing, 

    So I sing, 
    and I sing 
    for 
    my 
    brother, 

    Who 
    keeps 
    me sane, 

    And 
    tells 
    me 
    everything 
    will 
    be, 


    Interlude 2
    Okayâ?¦ 



    Verse 12
    I'm 
    nev
    er 
    alone, 

    No 
    I'm 
    never 
    alone, 

    I'm 
    not 
    alone, 


    Not aloneâ?¦

      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.
