          Lie to me tell me that they're only robins
          Tell me that your love for me will never be dead

                                    Re-intro

                         Today all the rooms in our home feel like strangers
                         I wonder what makes me feel so out of place

                                                                                   Why have you suddenly emptied your closets
                                                                                   And why can't you look me in the face

                               What are those things with big black wings
                               Circling descending from up over head

    Lie to me tell me that they're only robins
    Tell me that your love for me will never be dead

               Re-intro

    You faithfully promised you'd never leave me
    You told me your heart have no room for goodbyes

                                                              But tell me what makes all this distance between us
                                                              And who put that leavin' in your eyes

          What are those things with big black wings
          Circling descending from up over head

                                                                         Lie to me tell me that they're only robins
                                                                         Tell me that your love for me will never be dead

                                                    What are those things with big black wings
                                                    Circling descending from up over head

          Lie to me tell me that they're only robins
          Tell me that your love for me will never be dead

Charlie Louvin - What Are Those Things (With Big Black Wings)

More Than Tabs

Hear every part, read it in the notation you prefer, and practise it at your own tempo

Audio Playback

Play the whole score back, or step through it note by note. Every track is synthesised from its own instrument, so a drum line sounds like drums and a piano part sounds like a piano.

Dual Notation

Switch any track between tablature, standard notation and note names — or show them stacked, aligned bar for bar. The same score, in whichever language you read fastest.

Practice Tools

Slow the tempo until a passage sits under your fingers, set the play range to loop the bar you keep missing, and mute the tracks you want to play yourself.
