    Oh, 
    oh, 
    oh 


    Oh, 
    oh, 
    oh 


    Verse 1
    Where 
    do 
    we 
    go 
    from 
    here? 

    The 
    words 
    are 
    coming 
    out 
    all 
    weird 

    Where 
    are 
    you 
    now? 

    When 
    I 
    need 
    you 

    Alone 
    on 
    an 
    airplane 

    Falling 
    asleep 
    against 
    the 
    window

    Interlude 1
    My 
    blood 
    will 
    thicken 


    Verse 2
    I 
    need 
    to 
    wash 
    myself 
    again 

    To 
    hide 
    all 
    the 
    dirt 
    and 
    pain 

    'Cause 
    I'd 
    be 
    scared 

    That 
    there's 
    nothing 
    underneath 

    And 
    who 
    are 
    my 
    real 
    friends 

    Have 
    they 
    all 
    got 
    the 
    bends? 

    Am 
    I 
    really 
    sinking 

    Chorus 1
    This 
    slow 

    My 
    baby's 
    got 
    the 
    bends 

    Oh, 
    no 

    We 
    don't 
    have 
    any 
    real 
    friends 

    No, 
    no, 
    no 

    Just 
    lying 
    in 
    a 
    bar 
    with 
    my 
    drip 
    feed 
    on 

    Talking 
    to 
    my 
    girlfriend, 

    waiting 
    for 
    something 
    to 
    happen 

    And 
    I 
    wish 
    it 
    was 
    the 
    sixties, 

    I 
    wish 
    I

    happy 

    I 
    wish,

    wish

    something 

    would 
    happen 

    Verse 3
    Where 
    do 
    we 
    go 
    from 
    here? 

    The 
    planet 
    is 
    a 
    gunboat 

    in 
    a 
    sea 
    of 
    fear 

    And 
    where 
    are 
    you? 

    They 
    brought 
    in 
    the 
    C.I.A 

    The 
    tanks 
    and 
    the 
    whole 
    marines 

    to 
    blow 
    me 
    a
    way 

    Chorus 2
    To 
    blow 
    me 
    sky-high 

    My 
    baby's 
    got 
    the 
    bends 


    We 
    don't 
    have

      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.

      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.
