    • Verse 1
    Sunday 
    at 
    six 

    when 
    they 
    close 
    both 
    the 
    gates 

    A 
    widowed 
    pair, 

    Still 
    sitting 
    there, 

    Won
    der 
    if 
    they're 
    late 
    for 
    church 

    And 
    it's 
    cold, 

    so 
    they 
    fasten 
    their 
    coats 

    And 
    cross 
    the 
    grass, 

    they're 
    always 
    last. 

    Verse 2
    Passing 
    by 
    the 
    padlocked 
    swings, 

    The 
    round
    about 
    still 
    turning, 

    Ahead 
    they 
    see 
    a 
    small 
    girl 

    On 
    her 
    way 
    home 
    with 
    a 
    pram. 

    Verse 3

    Inside 
    the 
    archway, 

    The priest 
    greets 
    them 

    with 
    a 
    courteous 
    nod. 

    He's 
    close 
    to 
    God. 

    Look
    ing 
    back 
    at 
    days 
    of 
    four 

    instead 
    of 
    two. 

    Years 
    seem 
    so 
    few 

    (four instead 
    of 
    two). 

    Heads 
    bent 
    in 
    prayer 

    For 
    friends 
    not 
    there. 

    Verse 4
    Leaving 
    twopence 
    on 
    the 
    plate, 

    They 
    hurry 
    down 
    the path 

    and through 
    the 
    gate 

    And 
    wait 
    to 
    board 
    the 
    bus 

    That 
    ambles 
    down 
    the 

    Outro 1
    street.

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
