    • Verse 1
    And these 
    months 
    went 
    by 
    so 
    sweet 

    I 
    met 
    her down 
    by the 

    stream 
    and 
    she 
    was 
    pure 

    Like 
    honey
    comb 
    on 
    the fire, 

    dew 
    in 
    the north 

    And 
    she tugged 
    in 
    my sleeves 
    asking 

    "where 
    you 
    go
    ing?" 

    "I've 
    been 
    baking 
    you cookies 

    you 
    can leave 
    in 
    the 
    morning" 

    I, 
    I 
    want 
    you 
    around 

    Verse 2

    But see 
    I'm 
    drawn 
    to 
    your flames 

    like 
    a moth 
    to 
    the fold 

    In 
    these 
    old 
    pair 
    of jeans 

    unwashed 
    in 
    your 
    wardrobe 

    I'm 
    caught 
    at 
    the seams 

    of 
    who 
    I'll 
    become 

    Can 
    be 
    a man 
    to 
    the sea 
    and 

    Verse 3
    the needs 
    to

    I chose 

    And 
    there's 
    a 
    rust 
    on my

    Is 
    it salt 
    in my 
    palms 
    or have

      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 🙂

      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.
