    [Piano] 


    Verse 1
    I've 
    been 
    so 
    many 
    places 

    in 
    my 
    life 
    and 
    time 

    I've 
    sung 
    lot 
    of 
    songs 

    I've 
    made 
    some 
    bad 
    rhymes 

    I've 
    acted 
    out 
    my 
    life 
    in 
    stages 

    With 
    ten 
    thousand 
    peo
    ple 
    watching 

    But 
    we're 
    alone 
    now 

    And 
    I'm 
    singing 
    this 
    song 
    to 
    you 

    Verse 2
    know 
    your 
    image 
    of 
    me 
    is 

    what 
    hoped 
    to 
    be 

    treated 
    you 
    unkindly 

    But 
    darling, 
    can't 
    you 
    see? 

    There's 
    no 
    one 
    more 
    important 
    to 
    me 

    Baby, 
    can't 
    you 
    see 
    through 
    me? 

    'Cause 
    we're 
    alone 
    now 

    And 
    I'm 
    singing 
    this 
    song 
    to 
    you 

    Bridge 1
    You 
    taught 
    me 
    precious 
    secrets 

    Of 
    true 
    love 
    withholding 
    nothing 

    You 
    came 
    out in 
    front 

    When I 
    was 
    hiding 

    But 
    now 
    I'm 
    so 
    much 
    better 

    And 
    if 
    my 
    words 
    don't 
    come 
    together 

    Listen 
    to 
    the 
    melody 

    'Cause 
    my 
    love 
    is 
    in 
    there 
    hid
    ing 

    [Piano] 


    Verse 3
    love 
    you 
    in 
    place 

    where 
    there's 
    no 
    space 
    or 
    time 

    love 
    you 
    for 
    my 
    life 

    You're 
    friend 
    of 
    mine 

    And 
    when 
    my 
    life is 
    o
    ver 

    Remember 
    when 
    we 
    were 
    together 

    We 
    were 
    alone 

    And 
    was 
    singing 
    this 
    song 
    to 
    you

    • 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.
