    Verse 1
    I see 
    a place 
    where 

    candles 
    burn 
    and 
    lovers 
    rest 
    tonight 

    The hollow 
    sound 
    inside 
    me 
    now 

    keeps 
    telling 
    me 
    to write 

    But songs 
    of 
    love 
    will 
    never 
    leave 

    love's 
    feelings 
    un
    defiled 

    The tide 
    has 
    turned, 
    the waves 
    roll 
    in, 

    the 
    waters 
    fill 
    my 
    eyes 

    Verse 2
    The price 
    of lust 
    has 
    risen 
    till 

    the ceiling 
    will 
    not 
    stand 

    The 
    tears 
    I shed 
    were 
    not 
    in 
    shame, 

    the world 
    was 
    in 
    my 
    hands 

    If 
    trust 
    was 
    just 
    a simple 
    thing 

    then 
    trusting 
    would 
    be 

    But 
    deep 
    within 
    my 
    soul 
    know 

    it's 
    better 
    to be 
    free 

    Verse 3
    The days 
    fly 
    by, 
    the 
    waves 
    roll 
    in, 

    but 
    freedom 
    has 
    not 
    come 

    I fear 
    my 
    faith 
    will 
    soon 
    give 
    out, 

    my 
    senses 
    come 
    undone 

    My 
    role 
    is 
    played, 

    the de
    mon 
    dogs 
    come 
    stealin' 
    o'er 
    land 

    And 
    foolish 
    would 
    climb 
    once 
    more 
    a tree 
    too 
    weak 
    to stand 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    I see 
    a place 
    where 
    candles 

    burn 
    and 
    lovers 
    rest 
    tonight 

    The hollow 
    sound 
    inside 
    me 
    now 

    keeps 
    telling 
    me 
    to write 

    But songs 
    of love 
    should 
    not 
    be sung 

    where staying 
    is 
    not 
    planned 

    And 
    fool
    ish 
    would 
    climb 
    once 
    more 

    a tree 
    too 
    weak 
    to stand 

    And 
    foolish 
    would 
    climb 
    once 

    more 
    a tree 
    too 
    weak 
    to stand

    • 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.
