    Verse 1
    My 
    life 
    is 
    measured 
    by 
    this 
    glasse, 

    this glasse 

    By 
    all 
    those 
    little 
    Sands 

    that 
    through 
    passe 

    And 
    see 
    how 
    they 
    press, 

    see 
    how 
    they 
    strive, 
    which 
    shall 

    With 
    greatest 
    speed 
    and 
    greatest 

    quick
    ness 
    fall 

    And see 
    how 
    they 
    raise 
    little 
    Moun
    t, 

    and 
    then 

    With 
    their 
    own 
    weight 
    do 

    level 
    it 
    again 

    But 
    when 
    they 
    have 
    all 
    got 
    thorough, 

    they 
    give 
    over 

    Their 
    nimble 
    sliding 
    downe, 

    and 
    move 
    no 
    more 

    Just 
    such 
    is 
    man 
    whose 
    houres 

    still 
    forward 
    run 

    Being 
    almost 
    fin
    ished 
    'ere 

    they 
    are 
    begun; 

    So 
    perfect 
    nothings, 
    such 
    light 
    blasts 
    are we 

    That 
    ere 
    we 
    are, 
    ought 
    at 
    all, 

    we 
    cease 
    to 
    be 

    Do 
    what 
    we 
    will, 

    our 
    hasty 
    minutes 
    fly 

    And 
    while 
    we sleep

    what 
    do 
    we 
    else 
    but 
    die? 

    How 
    transient 
    are 
    our 
    Joys, 

    and 
    how 
    short 
    their 
    day! 

    They 
    creep 
    on 
    to
    wards 
    us, 

    but 
    fly 
    away 

    How 
    stinging 
    are 
    our 
    sorrows! 

    Where 
    they 
    gain 

    But 
    the 
    least 
    foot
    ing, 

    there 
    they 
    will 
    re
    main 

    And how 
    ground
    less 
    are 
    our 
    hopes, 

    how 
    they 
    deceive 

    Our 
    childish 
    thoughts, 

    and 
    only 
    sor
    row 
    leave! 

    and 
    how 
    real 
    are 
    our 
    fears! 

    They 
    blast 
    us 
    still 

    Still 
    rend 
    us, 

    still 
    with 
    gnaw
    ing 
    passions 
    fill; 

    How 
    senseless 
    are 
    our 
    wishes, 

    yet 
    how 
    great! 

    With 
    what 
    toil 
    we 
    pursue 
    them, 

    and 
    with 
    what 
    sweat! 

    Yet 
    most 
    times 
    for 
    our 
    hurts, 

    so 
    small 
    we 
    seem 

    Like 
    Children 
    crying 
    for 
    some 
    Mercury 

    And 
    this 
    gapes 
    for 
    Mar
    riage, 

    yet 
    his 
    fickle 
    head 

    Knows 
    not 
    what 
    cares 
    wait 
    on 
    the Mar

    riage 
    bed 

    And 
    this 
    vowes Vir
    ginity, 

    yet 
    knows 
    not 
    what 

    Loneness, 
    grief, 
    and 
    discon
    tent 

    attends 
    that 
    state 

    Desires 
    of 
    wealth 
    anothers 

    wishes 
    hold 

    And 
    yet 
    how 
    many 
    have 
    been 

    choked 
    with 
    Gold? 

    This 
    only 
    hunt
    s for 
    honour, 

    yet 
    who 
    shall 

    Ascend 
    the 
    higher

    shall 
    more 
    wretched 
    fall? 

    This 
    thirsts 
    for 
    know
    ledge, 

    yet 
    how 
    is it 
    bought? 

    With 
    many 
    sleepless 
    night 
    and 

    racking 
    thought 

    This 
    needs 
    will 
    travel, 

    yet 
    how 
    dangers 
    lay 

    Most 
    secret 
    Am

    buscados in 
    the 
    way 

    These 
    triumph 
    in their 
    Beauty, 

    though 
    it 
    shall 

    Like 
    pluck't Rose 
    or 
    fading 
    Lilly 
    fall 

    Another 
    boasts 
    strong 
    armes, 

    alas 
    Gi
    ants 
    have 

    By 
    silly 
    Dwarfes been 
    dragged 

    un
    to 
    their 
    grave 

    These 
    ruffle 
    in 
    rich 
    silk, 

    though 
    ne're 
    so 
    gay 

    well 
    plume'd Peacock 
    is 

    more 
    gay 
    than 
    they 

    Poore 
    man, 
    what 
    Art! 
    A Tennis 
    ball 

    of 
    Errour! 

    A ship 
    of 
    Glasse, 

    toss'd 
    in 
    a Sea 
    of 
    terrour! 

    Issuing 
    in 
    blood 
    and 
    sorrow 
    from 

    the 
    womb 

    Crawling 
    in 
    tears 
    and 
    mourning 

    to 
    the 
    tomb! 

    How 
    slippery 
    are 
    thy 
    paths, 

    and 
    how 
    sure 
    thy 
    fall 

    How 
    art 
    thou 
    Nothing 
    when 
    thou 
    art 
    most 
    of 
    all?!?

    • 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.
