Intro 1
C


Verse 1
C

Now is the glimmering

spinning beginning
Cm

Of something I've prayed for

and counted the minutes
G
Dsus4
G

To be in the shadows
Dsus4
G

of sheltering meadows

Of night, here with you in
C
Em

my arms.
C
Verse 2


This is the moment that pauses to hold us
Cm

As you and I move in a

background of wonder,
Dsus4

Sur rounded by countless

enclosures
G
C

Of nocturnal unspoken music of joy.
Verse 3
C


Counting times you have stood at the
Cm

foot of my ivory tower

And waited, and called out
Dsus4

my name by the hour,

And counted on the wings

of my heartstrings
G

To carry the sound,

I have counted on pleading,
C

You see how I need you, come down.
Verse 4
C


And now between twilight and

midnight I come to you,
Cm

Down in my gown of soft

moonbeams and starlight,
Dsus4

Bright is the evening,

the breezes have fenced us
G

And nestled against us
Verse 5
C

You're here
Cm

And warm.
Verse 6
Dsus4

And mine till the time
G

When the dawn will awake you,

The morning will shake you,

The highway will take you.
Verse 7
C

But now all the rays of the moon

making bouquets
Cm

Will swim through the luster of

lingering street lights
Dsus4

We count on the night to

hold everything even,
G

And count on forgetting that

you will be leaving,

And destinies folded and then in

the dawn you'll be gone.
C
Verse 8


But now as the gardens of

softening night time
Cm

Are blossoming slowly around

where we are,
G
Dsus4

You and I come together
G
C

And walk through the dreams of the stars.
Verse 9
C

So here while the song

of the deepening evening
Cm

Is singing to me from the

light in your eyes,
C
G

We can count on each other to move
Dsus4
G

to the beach of tomorrow
C

And know where we've been.

  • 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.
