  • Verse 1

    crossed 
    on 
    the 
    river 

    There'll 
    be 
    no 
    returning 

    crossed 
    all 
    the 
    bridges 

    watched 
    them 
    all 
    burning 

    Verse 2
    And 
    now 
    I'm 
    a stranger 

    To 
    strange 
    land 
    I'm driven 

    Where 
    all 
    is 
    forgotten 

    And 
    nothing's 
    forgiven 

    Verse 3

    But 
    cried 
    river, 
    river 
    for 
    him 

    That's 
    deeper 
    and wider 

    than 
    I'll 
    ever 
    swim 

    The heart 
    it 
    will 
    harden, 
    the sorrow 
    will 
    dim 

    But 
    cried a 
    river, 
    river 
    for 
    him 

    Verse 4

    think 
    of 
    him 
    now 
    on the 
    road 
    am 
    taking 

    And 
    wonder 
    how 
    long 
    his 

    heart 
    will 
    be 
    breaking 

    But 
    he'll 
    never 
    hear 
    when 

    the 
    teardrops 
    are 
    falling 

    Or 
    the 
    sound 
    of my 
    voice 
    and 

    the 
    name 
    I'm 
    calling 

    Verse 5
    But 
    cried 
    a river, 
    river 
    for 
    him 

    That's 
    deeper 
    and 
    wider 

    than 
    I'll 
    ever 
    swim 

    The 
    heart 
    it 
    will 
    harden, 
    the sorrow 
    will dim 

    But 
    cried 
    river, 
    river 
    for 
    him 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 6
    So 
    weep 
    for 
    the sons 
    and 
    the 

    dear 
    darling 
    daughters 

    For 
    the 
    passing 
    of 
    time 

    and the 
    parting 
    of 
    waters 

    For 
    all who 
    have 
    passed 

    through 
    this 
    world 
    long 
    before 
    me 

    To 
    far 
    distant 
    shore 
    where 

    no 
    one 
    waits 
    for 
    me 

    Verse 7
    But 
    cried 
    river, 
    river 
    for 
    him 

    That's 
    deeper 
    and 
    wider 

    than 
    I'll 
    ever 
    swim 

    The heart 
    it 
    will 
    harden, 
    the sorrow 
    will 
    dim 

    But 
    cried 
    a river, 
    river 
    for 
    him

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      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

      Rose the Black Cat

      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

      Tuliketsune

      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 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      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!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      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.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
