    Verse 1
    The only 
    time 
    I've 
    seen 

    you 
    was 
    about 
    a 
    year 
    ago 

    I 
    was 
    afraid 
    to 
    hold 
    you 
    but 
    I 

    wanted 
    you 
    to know 

    I touched 
    your 
    tiny 
    per
    fect 

    hand 
    before 
    I 
    went 
    uptown 

    I 
    didn't 
    pick 
    you 
    up 
    because 
    I'd 

    have 
    to 
    put 
    you 
    down 

    Verse 2
    For reasons 
    that 
    don't 
    make 
    much 
    sense 

    and 
    you 
    won't 
    un
    derstand 

    I've stayed 
    away 
    for 
    your 
    first 
    year 

    it's 
    sort 
    of 
    what 
    I 
    planned 

    But I've 
    been 
    in 
    your 
    neigh
    bourhood 

    sometimes 
    just 
    blocks 
    away 

    I 
    didn't 
    come 
    to 
    visit 
    you 
    because 

    I 
    couldn't 
    stay 

    Verse 3
    There 
    was 
    a 
    baby 
    on 
    a 
    plane 

    maybe 
    she 
    was 
    two 

    And 
    she 
    was 
    smiling 
    at 
    me 
    I 

    was not 
    sure 
    what 
    to 
    do 

    I've 
    kept 
    my 
    distance 
    from 
    you 

    a year's 
    much 
    more 
    than a while 

    And 
    so 
    I 
    looked 
    away 
    from 
    her 

    too 
    ashamed 
    to smile 

    Verse 4
    When 
    I saw 
    you 
    last 
    year, 

    I 
    knew 
    that 
    there 
    was 
    no 
    mis
    take 

    Amazing 
    things 
    can 
    hap
    pen 
    why 

    just 
    look 
    what 
    life 
    can 
    make 

    But life 
    can 
    get 
    so 
    hard 
    sometimes 

    some 
    feelings 
    can't 
    be 
    tamed 

    And 
    people 
    get 
    so 
    angry 

    frightene
    d and 
    ashamed 

    Verse 5
    You've 
    been 
    a sort 
    of 
    secret 
    for 
    a 

    year 
    I've 
    told 
    but few 

    Although 
    where 
    you 
    are 
    so 

    many 
    must 
    love 
    you 

    And I've 
    passed 
    by 
    your 
    win
    dow 

    but 
    haven't 
    dared 
    look 
    in 

    Al
    though 
    I 
    know 
    I'd 
    love 
    you 
    too, 

    I'm 
    too 
    scared 
    to 
    be
    gin

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
