That's the title of the song
D

We get away from this town

Where the pavement's stained is the

That's clogging up your vein
F#m

s when the rain falls down
A

Or the rain falls hard,
F#m
A

a long tale might talk from a well so dark

And the sewer crawls into the streets

With the love, with the joy, and the ecstasy
A

Ah, the profoundness

Oh that time we took the

But I shivered, I panicked
F#m

for the present day

The silver that glistened every holiday

The sand mirrored the water

and I watered

the sand
A

The sea walls in the distance

are camber sands

Where lonely hearts fail,

With a love, with a joy, and the ecstasy
G

Oh, the profoundness of your

Had some holiday that you turned out to be

You disappeared in the pastures

Where my fortress awaits

to see and breathe

The roads will explain the lonely music

C#m
B

Of the resolute, of the half -blind
Bm

From the saddest tunes,

well I turn my face towards the city

My heart filled with stories

like relics from the past

Did I drown, did I choke,
C#m

did I get in your way?

  • 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.
