    • Verse 1
    I 
    thought 
    you 
    were 
    the 
    wind 

    Rattling 
    through 
    this 
    house 
    again 

    I 
    thought 
    you 
    were 
    the 
    moon 

    Light
    ing 
    up 
    these 
    empty 
    room
    s 

    I 
    thought 
    you 
    were 
    the 
    sun

    Shining 
    down 
    on 
    everyone 
    but 
    me 

    I 
    thought 
    you 
    were 
    the 
    night 

    And 
    that's 
    as 
    close 
    as 
    I 

    came 
    to 
    be 
    right 

    I 
    saw 
    you 
    on 
    the 
    ground, 

    every 
    time 
    that 
    I 
    fell 
    down 

    I 
    saw 
    you 
    in 
    the 
    sky, 

    reach
    ing 
    out 
    as 
    I 
    flew 
    by 

    I've 
    heard 
    you 
    on 
    the 
    sea, 

    always 
    calling 
    out 
    to 
    me 

    Yeah, 
    I 
    saw 
    you 
    in 
    the 
    northern 
    light
    s 

    And 
    that's 
    as 
    close 
    as 
    I 

    came 
    to 
    be 
    right 

    I 
    didn't 
    know 
    it 
    could 
    grow 
    so 
    dark 
    I 

    didn't 
    know 
    it 
    could 
    break 
    my 
    heart 

    I 
    thought 
    it 
    bet
    ter 
    not 
    to 

    put 
    up 
    a 
    fight

    And 
    that's 
    as 
    close 
    as 
    I 
    came 
    to 
    being 

    right 


    I 
    thought 
    you 
    were 
    the 
    wind 

    Blowing 
    through 
    my 
    home 
    again 

    I 
    thought 
    you 
    were 
    the 
    moon 

    Now 
    noth
    ing 
    lights 
    these 
    pantaloon
    s 

    Oh, 
    I 
    thought 
    you 
    were 
    the 
    sun 

    Spread
    ing 
    warmth 
    on 
    everyone 
    but 
    me 

    I 
    thought 
    you 
    were 
    the 
    night

      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.
