  • Verse 1
    Here 
    is a scale, 
    weigh 
    it 
    out 

    And 
    you will 
    find, 
    easily 

    More 
    than 
    sufficient 
    doubt 

    That these 
    col
    ors 
    you 
    see 

    Verse 2
    Were 
    picked 
    in 
    advance 

    By some 
    careful 
    hand 

    With 
    an 
    ab
    solute 
    concept 
    of 
    beauty 

    They 
    are smeared 
    and 
    these 
    blurs 

    Verse 3
    Come 
    in random 
    order 

    And 
    color 
    the 
    eyes 
    of your 
    former 
    lovers 

    Hers 
    were 
    green 
    like 
    July 

    Except 
    when 
    she cried 

    Verse 4
    They were 
    red 

    Now 
    know 
    disease 

    That 
    these 
    doctors 
    can't 
    treat 

    You con
    tract 
    on 
    the day 

    Verse 5
    You 
    accept 
    all 
    you see 

    Is 
    mirror 
    and a 
    mirror 
    is 
    all 
    it can 
    be 

    A re
    flection 
    of something 
    we're 
    missing 

    And 
    language 
    just 
    happened 

    Verse 6
    It was 
    never 
    planned 

    And 
    it's inadequate 
    to 
    describe 
    where 
    am 

    In 
    the room 
    of my 
    house 

    Verse 7
    Where the 
    light 
    has 
    never 
    been 

    Waiting 
    for 
    this 
    day 
    to 
    end 

    And these 
    clock
    s keep 
    unwinding 

    Verse 8
    And com
    pletely 
    ignore 

    Everything 
    that 
    we hate 
    or 
    ad
    ore 

    Once the 
    page 
    of 
    a calendar 

    is 
    turned 
    it's 
    no 
    more 

    So 
    tell 
    me, 
    then, 
    what 
    was 
    it for? 

    Oh, 
    tell 
    me, 
    what 
    was 
    it for?

    • 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.
