    aside 
    her 
    youthful 
    ways 

    Though

    21 

    At

    lecture 
    I 
    ran

    some 
    fun 

    Verse 9
    We 
    walked 
    outside 
    and 

    went 
    to 
    get 
    some 
    air 

    She 
    said 
    to me 
    "Where 
    are 
    you 
    from?" 

    "A 
    coun
    try 
    place 
    you

    River 
    Run." 

    Verse 10
    Then 
    a smile 
    broke 
    across 
    her 
    face 

    She 
    missed 
    the 
    people 
    from 
    her 
    home 

    Two 
    years 
    later 
    I 
    was 
    married 
    to 

    That 
    darling 
    girl 
    from 
    River 
    Run

      "

      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 🙂

      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.
