    any man.

    Then she came and sat down at my table,
    D

    And as she placed her
    A

    soft hands in mine,
    D
    G

    I found myself wanting

    to kiss her

    The reflection of my wedding band.

    Verse 4
    E

    Last night all alone in a barroom
    A

    Met a guy with a drink in his hand.

    He had bay blue eyes, coal black hair

    And a smile that a girl understands.

    E

    Then he came and sat down at my table,


    And as he placed his hands over mine,

    I found my self wanting to kiss

    him

    For temptation was flowing
    B

    like wine.
    Verse 5

    And I was almost persuaded to strip myself of my pride.

    my conscience aside.

    Then we danced and he whispered, "I

    need you!"

    "Let me take you away and

    be your man."

    Then I looked into

    his eyes and I saw it:
    Verse 6
    A

    The reflection of my wedding band.

    And I was almost persuaded

    to let strange lips lead me on.
    E

    Almost persuaded but your sweet
    B
    E

    love made me stop and go home.

    • 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.”
