    • Intro 1


    I 
    walk 
    slowly 
    Verse 1

    through 
    the 
    tall 
    grass 

    And 
    the 
    bramble 
    sharp 
    as 
    cut 
    glass 

    Sit 
    beneath 
    a 
    willow 
    watching 

    blackbirds 
    over 
    hill
    s 
    go 

    Evening 
    finds 
    me 
    in 
    a 
    dusky 
    room, 

    win
    dows 
    open 
    to 
    the 
    moon 

    The 
    night 
    is 
    full 
    and 
    empty 
    in 
    the kitchen, 

    dark 
    and 
    lonely 

    And 
    oh, 
    should 
    I 
    go 
    or 
    should 
    I 
    stay? 

    Home 
    was
    n't 
    built 
    in 
    a 

    day 

    I 
    sit 
    outside 
    and 
    I try 
    to find 

    Reason 
    to 
    be here 
    in time 

    like 
    beetles 
    in 
    a beelow 
    glade, 
    swirl 
    like 
    plans 
    best 
    laid, 

    and I 
    remember 
    every 
    brick, 

    every 
    stone 
    and 
    every 
    stick, 
    every 
    dead 
    end 
    that 
    we traveled, 

    hardest 
    slate 
    and 
    loosest 
    gravel, 
    an
    d 

    Every 
    detour 
    along 
    the 
    way 

    And 
    a 
    home 
    wasn't 
    built 
    in 
    a day 






    Now 
    tears 
    flow 
    through 
    the 
    water 
    pipes, 

    rain 
    sneaks 
    through 
    the 
    roof 
    at 
    night, 
    black 
    smoke 

    from 
    the chimney 
    leak, 
    run 
    away 
    and 
    never 
    speak, 

    and 
    every 
    rock 
    pulled 
    from 
    the 
    mud 

    It's 
    held 
    together 
    with 
    our 
    blood 

    Like 
    wind 
    caught 
    in 
    tangled 
    trees 

    The 
    night 
    hold
    s you close 
    to me 

    And 
    oh, 
    what 
    a price 
    you 
    got 
    to pay 

    Cause 
    home 
    was
    n't 
    built 
    in 
    a day 

    That 
    morning 
    is 
    the 
    worst 
    time 

    Each 
    day 
    like 
    the first 
    time 

    I 
    wake 
    only 
    to 
    find 

    More 
    trouble 
    in 
    my 
    mind 

    It was 
    all 
    too 
    much, 
    it was 
    too 
    much 

    What 
    were 
    we thinking? 

    The 
    weight 
    of these 
    things 
    is 
    staggering 

    And 
    now 
    I'm 
    slowly 
    sinking 

    Come 
    the morning, 
    come 
    what 
    may, 

    Home 
    wasn't 
    built 
    in 
    a 
    day. 






    I'm

      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

      "

      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.
