    • Verse 1

    Standing 
    in 
    the 
    dock 
    at 
    Southampton 

    Trying 
    to 
    get 
    to 
    Holland 
    or 
    France 

    The 
    man 
    in 
    the 
    mac 
    said 

    You've 
    got 
    to 
    go 
    back 

    You 
    know 
    they 
    didn't 
    even 
    give 
    us 
    a 
    chance 

    Chorus 1
    Christ 
    you 
    know 
    it 
    ain't 
    easy 

    You 
    know 
    how 
    hard 
    it 
    can 
    be 

    The 
    way 
    things 
    are 
    going 

    They're 
    going 
    to 
    crucify 
    me 

    Verse 2
    Finally 
    made 
    the 
    plane 
    into 
    Paris 

    Honeymooning 
    down 
    by 
    the 
    Seine 

    Peter 
    Brown 
    call 
    to 
    say 

    You 
    can 
    make 
    it 
    O.K. 

    You 
    can 
    get 
    married 
    in 
    Gibraltar 
    near 
    Spain 

    Chorus 2
    Christ 
    you 
    know 
    it 
    ain't 
    easy 

    You 
    know 
    how 
    hard 
    it 
    can 
    be 

    The 
    way 
    things 
    are 
    going 

    They're 
    going 
    to 
    crucify 
    me 

    Verse 3
    Drove 
    from 
    Paris 
    to 
    the 
    Amsterdam 
    Hilton 

    Talking 
    in 
    our 
    beds 
    for 
    a 
    week 

    The 
    newspapers 
    said 

    Say 
    what're 
    you 
    doing 
    in 
    bed 

    I 
    said 
    we're 
    only 
    trying 
    to 
    get 
    us 
    some 
    peace 

    Chorus 3
    Christ 
    you 
    know 
    it 
    ain't 
    easy 

    You 
    know 
    how 
    hard 
    it 
    can 
    be 

    The 
    way 
    things 
    are 
    going 

    They're 
    going 
    to 
    crucify 
    me 

    Bridge 1
    Saving 
    up 
    your 
    money 
    for 
    a 
    rainy 
    day 

    Giving 
    all 
    your 
    clothes 
    to 
    charity 

    Last 
    night 
    the 
    wife 
    said 

    Oh 
    boy 
    when 
    you're 
    dead 

    You 
    don't 
    take 
    nothing 
    with 
    you 
    but 
    your 
    soul, 

    Verse 4
    think 

    Made 
    a 
    lightning 
    trip 
    to 
    Vienna 

    Eating 
    chocolate 
    cake 
    in 
    a 
    bag 

    The 
    newspapers 
    said 

    She's 
    gone 
    to 
    his 
    head 

    They 
    look 
    just 
    like 
    two 
    gurus 
    in 
    drag 

    Chorus 4
    Christ 
    you 
    know 
    it 
    ain't 
    easy 

    You 
    know 
    how 
    hard 
    it 
    can 
    be 

    The 
    way 
    things 
    are 
    going 

    They're 
    going 
    to 
    crucify 
    me 

    Verse 5
    Caught 
    the 
    early 
    plane 
    back 
    to 
    London 

    Fifty 
    acorns 
    tied 
    in 
    a 
    sack 

    The 
    men 
    from 
    the 
    press 
    said 

    We 
    wish 
    you 
    success 

    It's 
    good 
    to 
    have 
    the 
    both 
    of 
    you 
    back 

    Chorus 5
    Christ 
    you 
    know 
    it 
    ain't 
    easy 

    You 
    know 
    how 
    hard 
    it 
    can 
    be 

    The 
    way 
    things 
    are 
    going 

    They're 
    going 
    to 
    crucify 
    me 

    The 
    way 
    things 
    are 
    going 

    They're 
    going 
    to 
    crucify 
    me

      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.
