    Verse 1
    Flippin' 
    bottle 
    caps 
    through 
    the 

    ring 
    around 
    the moon 

    All 
    alone 
    on 
    a Saturday 
    night 

    with the 
    stars 
    in bloom 

    I am 
    a vision 
    of 
    my 
    mother's 

    dream 
    come 
    true 

    Built 
    this house 
    out 
    in the 
    hills 

    All 
    by 
    my 
    own 
    will 

    I've got 
    love 
    enough for 
    two 

    But 
    it's just 
    me and 
    this 
    old 
    moon 

    And 
    the sailors 
    on the water
    Verse 2

    They 
    all want 
    the captain's 
    daughter

    They 
    want 
    her beauty 
    and 
    her youth 

    To grace 
    their 
    bow 
    out 
    on the 
    sea 

    Me, 
    I'm 
    getting 
    older 
    and 
    I'm 
    plain 

    As 
    plain 
    can be 

    Got 
    bank 
    full 
    of mother's 
    dreams 

    Maybe 
    mother 
    just 
    didn't 
    see 

    That 
    love 
    would be 
    the 
    only 
    thing 

    Verse 3
    Her daughter 
    would ever 
    need 

    Oh, 

    I am 

    the heart 
    not 
    taken 

    The one 
    thought 
    not 
    worth 
    breakin' 

    I am 
    the late 
    blooming 
    rose 

    With only 
    her mother's 
    dream 
    to hold 

    On 
    this 
    less 
    travelled 
    road 

    Who 
    really 
    knows 

    Maybe 
    the 
    hearts 
    not 
    taken 

    Are 
    truly 
    made 
    of 
    gold 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    I'm gonna 
    flip one 
    more 
    bottle 
    cap 

    up 
    at the 
    moon 

    I've got 
    an early 
    call 
    with so 

    much 
    work to 
    do 

    But, 
    when I 
    go inside 
    I'm gonna let 

    my 
    back 
    door 
    slam 

    Mother, 
    to tell 
    you 
    the truth 

    I would 
    trade 
    your 
    dream 
    away 

    Just to 
    hear 
    some 
    loved one 
    say 

    Interlude 2
    I love you, 
    too 






    Verse 5
    Say 
    good
    night 
    to 
    the moon 

    I'll 
    say 
    love you 
    to 
    the moon 

    And 
    to my 
    mother 
    too 

    'Buenos 
    suenos' to 
    the 
    moon

    • 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.
