    • Verse 1
    Soft 
    clouds 
    all 
    drift 
    away 

    Bright 
    sun
    shine 
    never 
    stays 

    Warm 
    afternoons 
    turn 
    rainy 

    Dark 
    and 
    cruel 

    Verse 2

    A candle's 
    glow
    ing 
    light 
    will 
    die 

    The 
    purest 
    voices 
    often 
    lie 

    And 
    with 
    love 
    I've 
    found 

    That 
    all 
    the same 
    is 
    true 

    Verse 3

    Even 
    though 
    I 
    should 
    know 
    better 

    I 
    guess 
    we 
    could 
    maybe 
    try 

    There 
    is 
    the 
    risk 

    Of 
    looking 
    like 
    a fool 

    Verse 4

    But 
    I've 
    got 
    a lucky 
    feel
    ing 

    Just 
    a 
    hunch, 
    don't 
    ask 
    me 
    why 

    You 
    might 
    be 
    an 
    exception 

    To 
    the 
    rule 

    Verse 5

    Sweet 
    dreams 
    can't 
    be 
    re
    called 

    High 
    hopes 
    collapse 
    and 
    fall 

    As 
    the sky 
    keeps 
    turning 

    Sadder 
    shades 
    of 
    blue 

    Verse 6

    The strongest 
    prom
    ise, 
    finally 
    breaks 

    And 
    only 
    lead
    s 
    to 
    bigger 
    aches 

    Are 
    lessons 
    that 
    I 
    learned 

    At 
    sorrow's 
    school 

    Verse 7

    Even 
    though 
    I 
    should 
    know 
    better 

    I 
    guess 
    we 
    could 
    may
    be

    There 
    is 
    the 
    risk

      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

      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.
