    • Verse 1
    Dead 
    to 
    the world 
    my 
    body 
    was 
    sleeping 

    On 
    my 
    mind 
    was 
    nothing 
    at 
    all 

    Come 
    a 
    mist 
    an 
    aire so 
    appeal
    ing 

    I'm 
    here 
    a whispering 

    you 
    summoned 
    I 
    called 

    Verse 2
    I 
    formed 
    me a 
    presence 
    whose 

    aspect 
    was 
    changing 

    Oh 
    he 
    would shift 
    he 
    would not shift 
    at 
    all 

    We 
    sat 
    for 
    a while 
    he was 
    very 

    enga
    ging 

    And when he 
    was 
    gone 

    I was 
    gone 
    on a smile 

    With 
    a 
    strange 
    way of 
    walking 
    And 
    a 
    Verse 3

    strange 
    way 
    of breathing 

    More 
    lives 
    than 
    a cat 

    That 
    led 
    me 
    astray 

    All 
    in 
    all 
    he 
    cap
    tured 
    my 
    heart 

    Dead 
    to 
    the 
    world 
    and 
    just 

    Slipped 
    away 

    Verse 4

    I 
    heard 
    me 
    a music 
    that 
    drew me 
    to 
    dancing 

    Lo 
    I 
    turned 
    under 
    his 
    spell 

    I 
    opened 
    my 
    coat 
    but 
    he 

    never 
    came 
    closer 

    I bolted 
    the door 
    and 
    whispered 
    oh 
    well 

    Verse 5
    With 
    a 
    strange 
    way 
    of walking 

    And 
    a 
    strange 
    way 
    of breathing 

    More 
    lives 
    than 
    a cat 

    That 
    let 
    me 
    astray 

    All 
    in 
    all 
    he 
    cap
    tured 
    my 
    heart 

    Dead 
    to 
    the 
    world 
    and 
    just 

    Slipped 
    away 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 6
    I 
    laid 
    in the 
    rushes 
    the 
    air 

    was upon 
    me 

    Wondering 
    well 
    I just 
    couldn't 
    discern 

    Will 
    he come 
    back 
    come 
    back to 
    me 

    Oh 
    I 
    whispered 
    will you 
    ever 
    return 

    I 
    was feeling 
    sensations 
    in 
    no 
    diction
    Verse 7
    ary 

    He 
    was less 
    than 
    a breath 

    of 
    shimmer 
    and 
    smoke 

    The 
    life 
    in his 
    fingers 
    un

    wound my 
    ex
    istence 

    Dead 
    to 
    the world 
    alive 
    I awoke 

    Verse 8
    With 
    a 
    strange 
    way 
    of walking 

    And 
    a 
    strange 
    way 
    of breathing 

    Less 
    than 
    a breath 
    of 
    shimmer 
    and smoke 

    The 
    life 
    in his 
    fingers 
    un

    wound 
    my 
    existence 

    Dead 
    to 
    the 
    world 
    alive 
    I awoke 

    Alive 
    I awoke 

    Alive 
    alive 
    I awoke 

    Alive 
    I awoke 

    Alive 
    I 
    awoke 

    Alive 

    I awoke 

    I awoke 

    Alive I awoke 

    Alive 
    Alive 
    alive-o 

    Alive 
    Alive 
    alive-o

      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.
