    Verse 1
    I'll 
    be 
    your 

    candle 
    on 
    the wa
    ter 

    My 
    love 
    for 
    you 
    will 
    always 
    burn 

    I 
    know 
    your 
    lost 
    and 
    drifting, 

    But 
    the clouds 
    are 
    lifting 

    Don't 
    give 
    up 
    you 
    have 

    somewhere 
    to 
    turn. 

    Verse 2
    I'll 
    be 
    your 
    candle 
    on 
    the water

    Till 
    every 
    wave 
    is 
    warm 
    and 
    bright 

    My soul 
    is 
    there 
    be
    side 
    you, 

    Let 
    this 
    candle 
    guide 
    you 

    Soon 
    you'll 
    see 
    a 
    golden 

    stream 
    of 
    light 

    Verse 3
    A 
    cold 
    and 
    friendless 

    tide 
    has 
    found 
    you 

    Don't 
    let 
    the 
    stormy 

    darkness 
    pull 
    you 
    down 

    I'll 
    paint 
    a 
    ray 
    of 
    hope 

    around 
    you 

    Circ
    ling 
    in 
    the 
    air, 
    lighted 
    by 
    a 
    pray
    er 


    Verse 4
    I'll 
    be 
    your candle 
    on 
    the 
    water

    This 
    flame 
    in
    side 
    of 
    me 
    will 
    grow 

    Keep 
    holding 
    on, 
    you'll 
    make 
    it 

    Here's 
    my 
    hand 
    so 
    take 
    it 

    Look 
    for me 
    reaching 
    out 
    to 
    show 

    As sure 
    as 
    rivers 
    flow, 

    I'll 
    never 
    let 
    you 
    go 

    I'll 
    never 
    let 
    you 
    go 

    I'll 
    nev
    er 
    let 
    you 
    go

      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.
