  • Intro 1
    dedicate 
    this 
    song 
    to 
    recession 

    Depression 
    and 
    unemployment 

    This 
    song's 
    for 
    you 

    Verse 1
    Today's 
    new 
    day, 
    but 
    there 
    is 
    no 
    sunshine 

    Nothing 
    but 
    clouds, 
    and 
    it's 
    dark 
    in 
    my 
    heart 

    And 
    it 
    feels 
    like 
    cold 
    night 

    Today's 
    new 
    day, 

    but 
    where 
    are 
    my 
    blue 
    skies 

    Where 
    is 
    the 
    love 
    and 
    the 
    joy 
    that 

    You 
    promised 
    me 

    Tell 
    me 
    it's 
    alright 

    (I'll 
    be 
    honest 
    with 
    you) 

    Pre-chorus 1
    almost 
    gave 
    up, 
    but 
    power 

    that 
    can't 
    explain 

    Fell 
    from 
    heaven 
    like 
    shower, 
    now 

    (When 
    think 
    how 
    much 
    better 

    I'm 
    gonna 
    be 
    when 
    this 
    is 
    over) 

    Chorus 1
    smile, 
    even 
    though 
    hurt 
    see 
    smile 

    know 
    God 
    is 
    working 
    so 
    smile 

    Even 
    though 
    I've 
    been 
    here 
    for 
    while 

    smile, 
    smile 

    It's 
    so 
    hard 
    to 
    look 
    up 

    when 
    you've 
    been 
    down 

    Sure 
    would 
    hate 
    to 
    see 
    you 
    give 
    up 
    now 

    You 
    look 
    so 
    much 
    better 

    when 
    you 
    smile, 
    so 
    smile 

    Verse 2

    but 
    clouds, 
    and 
    it's 
    dark 
    in 
    my 
    heart 

    And 
    it 
    feels 
    like 
    cold 
    night 

    Today's 
    new 
    day, 

    but 
    where 
    are 
    my 
    blue 
    skies 

    (Where 
    is 
    that 
    love, 
    y'all) 

    Where 
    is 
    the 
    love 
    and 
    the 
    joy 
    that 

    You 
    promised 
    me 

    Tell 
    me 
    it's 
    alright 

    (The 
    truth 
    is) 

    Pre-chorus 2
    almost 
    gave 
    up, 
    but 
    power 

    that 
    can't 
    explain 

    (Holy 
    Ghost 
    power 
    y'all) 

    Fell 
    from 
    heaven 
    like 
    shower, 
    now 

    (Now 
    ain't 
    even 
    hurt 
    y'all 
    but 
    still)

    that) 

    know 
    God 
    is 
    working 
    so 
    smile 

    Even 
    though 
    I've

    here 
    for 
    while 
    (still)

    so 
    hard 
    to 
    look 
    up 

    when 
    you've 
    been 
    down 

    Sure

    see 
    you 
    give 
    up 
    now 

    (cursed

    better 
    when 
    you 
    smile

    • 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.
