    Verse 1

    D

    I'm just driftwood on the
    A

    river floating down the tide

    I don't care where this
    D

    old river carries me
    Dm

    I keep drifting just because
    D
    G

    my heart is broken inside
    A

    And I'm tired of wishing for
    D

    what cannot be

    (I may meet some little
    A

    driftwood lost as same as I

    Share a handshake and
    D

    a tender tear or two)

    But it's always good luck how
    G

    we got to say goodbye
    A

    I must wander on to keep
    D

    my rendezvous
    Verse 2
    D

    Though I drift through town
    A

    and city I can never stay

    For I find no place to call my
    D

    home sweet home
    G

    I don't ask for help or pitty I just go my way
    A

    All I'm praying for is peace to
    D
    G
    A

    dream alone
    D


    (I'm just driftwood on the
    A

    river and I'm drifting on

    Till this weary river meets
    D

    the deep blue sea)

    Where the deep blue sea may help
    A
    G

    me to forget someone
    A
    D

    Yes the careless one who has forgotten me

    In my heart I don't feel bitter
    A

    over what has been
    D
    A
    D

    I feel sorry for the one I must forget

    And instead of being someone
    G

    with the world to win
    A

    I'm just driftwood on the river of regret
    D

    • 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.
