    Verse 1
    Sunday 
    morning, 

    my 
    Rebbecca sleeping 
    in 
    with 
    me 
    again 

    There's 
    a kid 
    outside 
    the church 

    kicking 
    a can

    When 
    the 
    ce
    dar 
    branches 
    twist 
    she 

    turns 
    her 
    col
    lar 
    to 
    the wind 

    The weather 
    can 
    close 
    the 

    world 
    within 
    its 
    hand 

    Verse 2

    And 
    my 
    mother 
    says 
    Rebbecca is 

    as stub
    born 
    as 
    they 
    come 

    They 
    both 
    call 
    to 
    me 
    with 
    words 

    never 
    knew 

    There's 
    a bug 
    in
    side 
    the 
    thimble, 

    there's 
    a band-aid 
    on 
    on 
    her 
    thumb 

    And 
    a pony 
    in 
    the 
    river 
    turning 
    blue 

    Verse 3

    They 
    say, 
    "Time 
    may 
    give 
    you 
    more 
    than 

    your 
    poor 
    bones 
    could 
    ever 
    take" 

    My 
    Rebbecca says 
    she 

    never 
    wants 
    boy 

    To 
    be 
    barefoot 
    on 
    the 
    drive
    way 
    as 

    they 
    wave 
    and 
    ride 
    away 

    Then 
    to 
    run 
    inside 
    and 

    curse 
    the 
    open 
    door 

    Verse 4

    once 
    gave 
    to 
    my 
    Rebbecca a 

    be
    lated 
    promise 
    ring 

    And 
    she 
    sold 
    it 
    to 
    the wait
    ress 
    on 
    train 

    may 
    find 
    her 
    by 
    the 
    phone 
    but 

    with 
    a fash
    ion 
    magazine 

    She 
    may 
    kiss 
    me 
    when 

    her girlfriends 
    leave 
    again 

    Verse 5

    They 
    say, 
    "Time 
    may 
    give 
    you 
    more 
    than 

    your 
    poor 
    bones 
    could 
    ever 
    take" 

    think 
    could 
    never 
    love 
    another 
    girl 

    To 
    be 
    free 
    atop 
    tree 
    stump 
    and 

    to 
    look 
    the 
    other 
    way 

    While 
    she 
    shines 
    my 
    mother's 
    imitation 

    pearls 

    Interlude 1


    Sunday 
    evening 
    my 
    Verse 6
    Rebbecca's lost 

    a book 
    she 
    never 
    read 

    And 
    the 
    moon 
    already 
    fell 
    into 
    the sea 

    Saw 
    the 
    statues 
    of 
    our 
    fath
    ers 
    in 

    the court
    house 
    flower 
    bed 

    Now 
    they 
    blend 
    with 
    all 
    the 

    light
    ning-tattered 
    trees 

    trees 

    Verse 7

    They 
    say, 
    "Time 
    may 
    give 
    you 
    more 
    than 

    your 
    poor 
    bones 
    could 
    ever 
    take" 

    My 
    Rebbecca said 
    she 
    knew 

    I'd 
    want 
    a boy 

    A dollar 
    for 
    my 
    board
    walk 
    red 
    bal
    loon, 

    to float 
    away 

    She 
    would 
    earn 
    pocket
    ful 
    to 
    buy 
    me 
    more

    • 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.
