    • Verse 1
    She'd 
    been 
    coughing 
    up 
    blood 
    since 

    the 
    dogwoods 
    bloomed 

    Seventeen 
    that 
    spring 
    and 

    confined 
    to 
    her room 

    At 
    night 
    her 
    heart 
    pounded 

    holes 
    in 
    her 
    chest 

    Death, 
    like 
    a bird 
    was 
    building 
    its 
    nest 

    Verse 2
    And 
    so 
    on 
    the last 
    day 
    of her 
    short 
    life 

    Emily 
    called 
    for 
    her father's 
    penknife 

    She sawed 
    at her 
    head 
    till 

    the floor 
    pooled 
    with 
    hair 

    And 
    braided 
    a watch 
    chain 
    for 

    Father 
    (Mother) to wear 

    Verse 3
    She'd 
    laughed 
    at 
    the graveyard 

    on 
    one 
    sip of 
    wine 

    And 
    kept 
    a 
    pet 
    duck 
    till 

    the cat 
    crushed 
    its spine 

    But, 
    waltzing 
    one 
    night 
    in 

    a red 
    velvet 
    dress 

    She 
    noticed 
    a whistling 
    down 
    in 
    her 
    chest 

    Verse 4
    And 
    so 
    on 
    the last 
    day 
    of her 
    short 
    life 

    Emily 
    called 
    for 
    her father's 
    penknife 

    She 
    sawed 
    at 
    her head 
    till 

    the floor 
    pooled 
    with hair 

    And 
    braided 
    a watch 
    chain 
    for 

    Father 
    (Mother) to 
    wear 

    Verse 5
    Propped 
    up 
    on 
    pillows 
    she 

    watched 
    the snow 
    fall 

    Trying 
    to 
    picture 
    an 
    end 
    to 
    it all 

    By 
    spring 
    there'd 
    be 
    picnics 

    and 
    merry- 
    go- 
    rounds 

    But 
    she'd 
    be 
    nothing, 

    but 
    bones 
    in 
    the ground 

    Verse 6

    And 
    so 
    on 
    the last 
    day 
    of her 
    short 
    life 

    Emily 
    called 
    for 
    her father's 
    penknife 

    She 
    sawed 
    at 
    her 
    head 
    till 

    the floor 
    pooled 
    with hair 

    And 
    braided 
    a watch 
    chain 
    for 

    father 
    (Mother) to 
    wear

      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.
