    Verse 1
    Rob 

    lived in 
    box 
    by the 
    rails 

    Only thing 
    he 
    knew 
    is you don't 
    fail 

    When 
    you live in 
    box 
    by the 
    rails 

    Don't 
    comb your 
    hair, 

    don't comb 
    your 
    tail 

    Verse 2
    Sweep my 
    mess 
    away 

    Leave my 
    body, 
    leave my 
    bones 

    Leave me 
    whole 
    and leave my 
    soul 

    Leave me 
    nothin' 
    I don't 

    need 
    at all 

    Nothin' 
    I don't 
    need 
    at all 

    Verse 3

    He ate 
    from the 
    bins 
    in the 
    park 

    Stayed 
    out with 
    the 
    rats 
    after 
    dark 

    Never 
    left 
    trail, 
    never made 
    his 
    mark 

    When 
    he ate with the 
    rats 
    after 
    dark 

    Verse 4
    Sweep my 
    mess 
    away 

    Leave my 
    body, 
    leave my 
    bones 

    Leave me 
    whole 
    and leave my 
    soul 

    Leave me 
    nothin' 
    I don't 

    need 
    at all 

    Nothin' 
    I don't 
    need at 
    all 

    Verse 5

    Callin' 
    on his 
    friends 

    never made 
    him 
    sad 

    Didn't 
    want the 
    thing

    he never 
    had 

    It only made 
    them 
    feel so 
    sad 

    For having the 
    things 
    he never 
    had 

    Verse 6
    Sweep my 
    mess 
    away 
    Leave my 

    body, 
    leave my 
    bones 

    Leave me 
    whole 
    and leave my 
    soul 

    Leave me 
    nothin' 
    I don't 

    need 
    at all 

    Nothin' 
    don't 
    need 
    at all 


    Verse 7
    If 
    you stay in that 
    box 
    overnight 

    And 
    don't get 
    out when 

    it gets 
    light 

    There's 
    not much 
    lost 
    of a secret 
    life 

    That's 
    never done 
    wrong 

    and it's never done 
    right 

    Verse 8
    Now some 
    more 
    flowers 
    grow 

    And the 
    corn gets 
    eaten by 

    a few more 
    crows 

    And an old man's 
    box 
    is full of bones 

    Won't see his 
    footprints 

    in the 
    snow 

    Verse 9
    Sweep my 
    mess 
    away 

    Leave my 
    body, 
    leave my 
    bones 

    Leave me 
    whole 
    and leave my 
    soul 

    Leave me 
    nothin' 
    I don't 

    need 
    at 
    all 

    Nothin' 
    I don't 
    need 
    at all 

    Verse 10
    Sweep my 
    mess 
    away 

    Leave my 
    body, 
    leave my 
    bones 

    Leave me 
    whole 
    and leave my 
    soul 

    Leave me 
    nothin' 

    don't need 
    at 
    all 

    Nothin' 
    I don't 
    need at 
    all

      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.
