Verse 1
F
What happened here
C
as the New York sunset disappeared?

I found an empty garden

among the flagstones there
F
Who lived here?
He must have been a gardener

that cared a lot
Who weeded out the tears

and grew a good crop
Am
Now it all looks strange
F
It's funny how one in sect
G
C
can damage so much grain

F
And what's it for?
This little empty garden
C
by the brownstone door
G
And in the cracks along the sidewalk,
Am
nothin' grows no more
F
Who lived here?
He must have been a gardener
C
that cared a lot

we're crippled and we're dazed

A gardener like that one,

no one can replace

C
Can't you come out to play?"

And through their tears
Some say he farmed his best
C
in younger years
But he'd have said
G
that roots grow stronger,
Am
if only he could hear
F
Who lived here?
He must have been a gardener
C
that cared a lot
Who weeded out the tears
G
and grew a good crop

Now we pray for rain,
F
and with every drop that falls
G
C
We hear, we hear your name

And I've been knockin',

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!!!”

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.”
