    Verse 1
    He 
    lived 
    alone 
    in 
    town 

    His 
    friends 
    were 
    many 
    and 
    true 

    He 
    drank 
    and 
    took 
    the 
    easy 
    love 

    Of 
    street 
    girls 
    that he 
    knew 

    Verse 2
    And he 
    met 
    a girl 
    one 
    day 

    Said, 
    "Come 
    home 
    with me 
    to
    night" 

    "Oh 
    no!" 
    she 
    cried, 
    "I 
    never 
    will" 

    And she 
    left 
    him 
    there 
    alone 

    Verse 3
    And the 
    days 
    went 
    by, 
    and 
    days 

    Went 
    by 
    and 
    they 
    did 
    long 

    For 
    each 
    other 
    every 
    hour 

    But 
    still 
    she'd 
    not be 
    bound 

    In the 
    Verse 4
    places 
    of 
    young 
    men 

    never 
    will 
    be found 

    But 
    think 
    you 
    not 
    that I 
    don't 
    love 

    For my 
    heart 
    is 
    ripe 
    and 
    full 

    Verse 5
    "How cold 
    you 
    are!" 
    he 
    said 

    guess 
    you 
    must 
    not 
    care 
    for 
    me 

    But 
    tell 
    me, 
    where it 
    is you'd 
    go? 

    For I'd 
    take 
    you 
    anywhere 

    Then 
    come 
    Verse 6
    to a 
    forest 
    green 

    Where 
    may 
    love 
    you 
    free 

    Bey
    ond 
    the confines 
    of 

    your walls 

    And beyond 
    the 
    sweetest 
    words 

    An
    d beyond 
    Verse 7
    the 
    mountains 
    high 

    Bey
    ond 
    the 
    fields 
    of 
    shame 

    And 
    bey
    ond 
    the prettiest 

    wed
    ding 
    ring 

    For I'd 
    never 
    take 
    your 
    name 

    Verse 8
    And 
    wander 
    with me 
    now 

    Or 
    wander 
    all 
    for
    lorn 

    But 
    know 
    I love 
    you, 
    tearful 
    one 

    Much 
    more 
    than 
    can 
    show 

    Verse 9
    He could 
    not 
    under
    stand 

    He 
    thought 
    she 
    could not 
    care 

    "Oh, 
    take 
    me 
    far 
    away," 
    she'd 
    cried 

    And 
    he could 
    not 
    hear 
    her 
    prayer 

    Verse 10
    And 
    he wandered 
    off 
    alone 

    To 
    never 
    know 
    her dream 

    And 
    she 
    still 
    dwells 
    within 
    the forest 

    Longing 
    for 
    his 
    love 

    Verse 11
    So, 
    wander 
    with 
    me 
    now 

    Or 
    wander 
    off 
    alone 

    But know 
    I love 
    you, 
    tearful 
    one 

    Much 
    more 
    than 
    can 
    show

    • 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.
