    Love

    Here 
    but 
    now 
    they're

    Pre-chorus 3
    Came 
    the 
    last 
    night 
    of 
    sadness 

    And 
    it 
    was 
    clear 
    that 
    she 
    couldn't 

    go 
    on 

    Then 
    the 
    door 
    was 
    o
    pen 

    and 
    the 
    wind 
    appeared 

    The 
    candles 
    blew 
    and 
    then 
    dis
    appeared 

    The 
    curtains 
    flew 
    and 
    then 
    he 
    appeared 

    (Saying 
    don't 
    be 
    afraid) 

    Chorus 3
    Come 
    on, 
    baby 

    (and 
    she 
    had 
    no 
    fear) 

    And 
    she 
    ran 
    to 
    him 

    They 
    looked 
    backward 

    and 
    said 
    goodbye 

    She 
    had 
    taken 
    his 
    hand 

    (she 
    had 
    be
    come 
    like 
    they 
    are) 

    Come 
    on, 
    baby 
    (don't 
    fear 
    the)

    • 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.
