    Verse 1
    With 
    the 
    money 
    from 
    her 
    accident 

    She 
    bought 
    herself 
    a 
    mo
    bile 
    home 

    So 
    at 
    least 
    she 
    could 
    get 
    some 
    en
    joyment 

    out 
    of 
    being 
    alone 

    No 
    one 
    could 
    say 
    that 
    she 
    was 
    left 
    up 

    on 
    the 
    shelf 

    It's 
    you 
    and 
    me 
    against 
    the 
    World 
    kid 

    Interlude 1
    she 
    mumbled 
    to 
    herself 



    Chorus 1
    When 
    the 
    world 
    falls 
    apart 

    some 
    things 
    stay 
    in 
    place 

    Levi 
    Stubbs' 
    tears 
    run 
    down 
    his 
    face 

    Verse 2
    She 
    ran 
    a
    way 
    from 
    home 

    in 
    her 
    mother's 
    best 
    coat 

    She 
    was 
    married 
    before 
    she 
    was 
    even 

    entitled 
    to 
    vote 

    And 
    her 
    husband 
    was 
    one 
    of 
    those 
    blokes 

    The 
    sort 
    that 
    only 
    laughs 
    at 
    his 
    own 
    jokes 

    The 
    sort 
    a 
    war 
    takes 
    away 

    And 
    when 
    there 
    wasn't 
    a 
    war 
    he 
    left 
    anyway 

    Interlude 2


    Chorus 2
    When 
    the 
    world 
    falls 
    apart 

    some 
    things 
    stay 
    in 
    place 

    Levi 
    Stubbs' 
    tears 
    run 
    down 
    his 
    face 

    Bridge 1
    Norman 
    Whitfield 
    and 
    Barrett 
    Strong 

    Are 
    here 
    to 
    make 
    right 
    every- 
    thing 

    that's 
    wrong 

    Holland 
    and 
    Holland 
    and 
    Lamont 
    Dozier 
    too 

    Are 
    here 
    to 
    make 
    it 
    all 
    okay 
    with 
    you 

    Verse 3
    And 
    one 
    dark 
    night 
    he 
    came 
    home 

    from 
    the 
    sea 

    And 
    put 
    a 
    hole 
    in 
    her 
    body 

    where 
    no 
    hole 
    should 
    be 

    It 
    hurt 
    her 
    more 
    to 
    see 
    him 

    walking 
    out 
    the 
    door 

    And 
    though 
    they 
    stitched 
    her 
    back 
    together 

    they 
    left 
    her 
    heart 
    in 
    pieces 
    on 
    the 
    floor 

    Chorus 3
    When 
    the 
    world 
    falls 
    apart 

    some 
    things 
    stay 
    in 
    place 

    She 
    takes 
    off 
    the 
    Four 
    Tops 
    tape 

    and 
    puts 
    it 
    back 
    in 
    its 
    case 

    When 
    the 
    world 
    falls 
    apart 

    some 
    things 
    stay 
    in 
    place

    Stubbs' 
    tears

      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.
