    • Verse 1
    I meant 
    to do 

    my 
    work 
    today 

    So 
    many 
    plans 
    I 
    had 
    made 

    I'd 
    check 
    the mail, 

    I'd 
    make 
    the call
    s 

    Save 
    the world 
    and sweep 
    the hall 

    Fi
    nally 
    get 
    my 
    ac
    counting 
    done 

    Sort 
    the beans 
    one 
    by 
    one 

    But 
    I 
    got 
    waylaid 
    by 

    the morning 
    sun 

    And I got 
    absolutely 
    nothing 

    done 

    Verse 2
    I thought 
    I'd live 
    a louder 
    life 

    I'd 
    learn 
    a lot 
    and 
    get 
    it 
    right 

    I'd 
    rent 
    a loft 
    I'd drink 
    all night 

    I'd 
    be 
    a living 
    archetype 

    And 
    in a 
    blinding 
    flash 
    of light 

    I'd 
    see 
    that 
    one 
    great 
    insight 

    But silence 
    called 
    me 
    deeper 
    still 

    Like 
    nothing 
    else 
    ever 
    will 

    Verse 3

    I woke 
    to hear 
    an owl 
    nearby 

    Hunting 
    something 
    large 

    enough 
    to 
    cry 

    Nature's 
    always 
    beautiful 

    The 
    change 
    of season 
    always 
    right 

    The 
    moon 
    shines 
    cold 
    and 
    true 
    and bright 

    And 
    sets 
    at dawn 
    without 
    a fight

    And 
    yet 
    I could 
    not 
    find 
    a 
    way 

    To 
    get 
    myself 
    back 
    to sleep 
    last 

    night 

    Verse 4

    I nev
    er 
    knew 
    just 
    what 
    it meant 

    The 
    way 
    you smiled 
    while 

    you 
    dreamt 

    And 
    why my 
    heart 
    can 
    overflow 

    And 
    why 
    mistakes 
    can 
    haunt 
    me so 

    Why 
    nothing 
    ever 
    stops 
    or stays 

    Dust shim
    mers 
    in 
    the morn
    ing 
    rays 

    I did
    n't 
    do 
    the work 
    that 
    I'd had 
    said 

    I just 
    wandered 
    through 
    these 
    thoughts 
    in
    stead

      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.
