    • Verse 1
    Once 
    I 
    built 
    a 
    castle 
    in 
    the 
    air, 

    A 
    home for 
    you 
    and I- 

    In 
    a blue, 
    blue sky. 

    We'd 
    leave 
    behind 

    the weight 
    of worldly 
    care, 

    I 
    thought 
    we could 
    fly 

    Verse 2
    We 
    only 
    had to 
    try. 

    Ah, 
    I 
    had 
    to learn 
    fast, 

    (For your 
    own 
    good) 

    I had 
    to learn 
    fast 

    And 
    when 
    I knew 
    at 
    last 

    (You understood) 

    I knew 
    at 
    last 

    Verse 3
    Hell 
    and 
    heaven 
    can 
    be 
    one 
    and the 
    same, 

    If 
    you don't 
    know how 

    You 
    should 
    know by now, 

    Every 
    pleasure 
    always 
    holds 

    an 
    equal 
    amount 
    of pain 

    But 
    it all works 
    out, 

    Interlude 1
    I 
    have 
    no doubt. 




    Verse 4
    Ah, 
    we 
    had 
    to learn 
    fast, 

    (For our 
    own 
    good) 

    We had 
    to barn 
    fast. 

    And 
    when we 
    knew 
    at 
    last 

    (When 
    we understood) 

    We knew 
    at 
    last 

    Verse 5

    Every 
    kite 
    has 
    got 
    to 
    have 
    a string 
    for 
    it to 
    fly 

    Up to 
    who knows 
    where 
    ? 

    Castles 
    in 
    the air. 

    So 
    there 
    are strings 
    attached 

    to 
    you 
    and 
    I 

    Though 
    they 
    hold 
    us tight 

    Outro 1
    We can 
    take 
    flight.

    • 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.”
