  • Verse 1
    It 
    was 
    al

    most 
    time 

    to close 

    Montgomery's 
    book
    store 

    was dust
    ing 
    up 
    the 
    window 
    display 

    When 
    young 
    man 
    in 
    tattered 

    jacket 
    smiled 
    at me 
    and 
    said, 

    You're 
    gonna 
    see 
    my 
    books 

    in here 
    some 
    day. 

    He 
    walked 
    me home, 
    asked 
    him 
    in, 

    we 
    talked 
    till way 
    past 
    three. 

    When 
    the 
    sun 
    came 
    up that 
    morning, 

    he was 
    ly
    ing 
    next 
    to me. 

    He 
    was 
    writer 
    and 
    his first 

    love 
    would 
    always 
    be 
    his 
    pen 

    knew it, 
    but 
    I loved 
    him and 

    I'd 
    do 
    it 
    all 
    again 

    He 
    was 
    writer, 

    there 
    was magic 
    in 
    every 
    word 
    he 
    said 

    And 
    our 
    story 
    was 
    the 

    sweetest 
    ever 
    read 

    At 
    night 
    I'd 
    find 
    him at 
    the 
    kitchen 
    table 

    With 
    papers 
    scattered 
    round 

    him 
    left 
    and 
    right 

    I'd 
    touch 
    his 
    neck while 

    blowing 
    little 
    kisses 
    in 
    his 
    ear 

    Then 
    he 
    wouldn't 
    write 

    another 
    word 
    all 
    night 

    But 
    letter 
    from 
    the 
    man 
    in 

    New 

    York 

    City 
    came 

    and then 
    watched 
    him 
    pack 
    I'm 
    afraid 

    that he'd 
    be com
    ing 
    back 
    again 

    he 
    was 
    a writer 
    and 
    his first 

    love 
    would 
    always 
    be 
    his 
    pet 

    knew 
    it but 
    I loved 
    him and 

    I knew 
    it 
    all 
    again 

    he 
    was 
    writer 
    there 
    was magic 

    in 
    every 
    word 
    he 
    said 

    And 
    our 
    story 
    was 

    the sweetest 
    ever

    time 
    to close 

    Montgomery's 
    book
    store 

    was 
    put
    ting 
    out 
    some 

    new books 
    on 
    dis
    play 

    When 
    that 
    young 
    man 
    in 
    the 
    tattered 

    jacket 
    smiled 
    at 
    me again 

    From 
    the 
    cover 
    of 
    his book 
    that 
    came 
    today 

    All 
    the 
    dedication 
    in 
    my 
    name 

    Was 
    where 
    I prayed 
    that 
    it would 
    be 

    But 

    Lord 
    they're 
    only 
    words 

    need 
    him right 
    here 
    lov
    ing 
    me 

    But 
    he was 
    writer 
    and 
    his 
    first 
    love 

    Would 
    always 
    be 
    his 
    pen 

    knew 
    it 
    but 
    loved 
    him 

    And 
    I'd 
    do 
    it 
    all 
    again 

    He 
    was 
    writer 
    that 
    was 
    magic 

    in 
    every 
    word 
    he 
    said 

    And 
    our 
    story 
    was 
    the 
    sweetest 
    ever 
    read 

    Oh, 
    he 
    was 
    writer, 

    and 
    his 
    first 
    love 
    would 
    always 
    be 
    despair 

    knew 
    it, 
    but 
    loved 
    him, 

    and 
    I'd 
    do 
    it 
    all 
    again 

    He 
    was 
    writer 
    that 
    was 
    magic...

    • 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.
