  • Verse 1
    How 
    can 
    I go 
    on 
    when 

    every 
    thought 
    hurts 

    I flirt 
    with the 
    notion 
    of 
    no 
    more 
    songs 

    My 
    old 
    familiar 
    foe, 

    self 
    pity, 
    haunts 
    me 

    I'm 
    stuck 

    in 
    some 
    over-the-mountain 
    town 

    town 

    town 

    In 
    a mean
    ingless 
    bar 
    where fat 
    hands 

    Round 
    the 
    steiners 

    And 
    no 
    one 
    cares 
    if 
    it 
    sun

    or 
    pours 

    In 
    an hour 
    between 
    trains 

    Barney 
    puts 
    the 
    record 
    on 

    And 
    the 
    aim
    less 
    rise 
    to 

    dance 

    Embrace 
    me, 
    my 
    sweet 

    embrace
    able you 

    I see 
    you, 
    George, 
    in your 

    Apartment 
    on 
    Riverside 
    Drive 

    Some 
    fifty 
    years 
    ago 

    Your 
    fin
    gers 
    on the 
    keys 

    Looking 
    for 
    the song 

    Looking 
    for 
    that 
    hook 

    Embrace 
    me, 
    you 
    irre
    place

    able 
    you 

    Who 
    were you 
    then? 

    Did 
    you have 
    woman? 

    Were you 
    hard 
    up for 
    cash? 

    Did 
    you 
    ever 
    know 
    you'd be 

    heard 
    in 

    The middle 
    distance 

    In 
    some 
    over-the-mountain 
    town? 

    town? 

    town? 

    Connect
    ing 
    to 
    the 
    muscles 
    of 
    the 
    dancers 

    In 
    this 
    close 
    an

    d smoky 
    room 

    Who 
    Verse 2
    were 
    you 
    then? 

    Were you 
    sure 
    of your 
    tune? 

    Or 
    were your 
    dreams 
    and your 
    courage 
    all 
    broken 
    down 

    like 
    mine? 


    Now 
    there's 
    something 

    that clutches 
    the heart 

    A melody 
    that 

    stays 

    Verse 3

    Year 
    after 
    year 

    love 
    all 
    the 
    many 
    charms 

    about 
    you 

    Above 
    all 
    want 
    my 
    arms 

    around 
    you 

    I'm 
    already 
    late 
    for 
    my 
    train 

    But 
    I don't 
    think 
    about 
    that 

    I think 
    of 
    you, 
    George 

    At 
    your piano, 

    sweat
    ing 
    in the 
    summer 
    heat 

    Verse 4
    By 
    the way, 
    did 
    you 
    get 
    your 
    girl, 

    Did 
    you 
    by 
    your 
    house 
    in the country? 

    Did 
    you wait 
    for 
    something 

    that 
    never 
    came? 

    Did 
    you 
    die 
    still 
    waiting 
    for 

    your 
    train? 

    Don't 
    be 
    a naughty 
    baby, 

    come 
    to mama 

    Come 
    to 
    mama 
    do 

    Verse 5

    Some 
    part 
    of 
    your 
    heart 

    twist
    s and 
    turns 
    in 
    mine 

    Your 
    soul 
    rises 

    There's 
    an an
    gel 
    in 
    charge 

    There's 
    one 
    note 
    that 

    weep
    the truth 

    And 
    makes 
    my 
    life 
    mean 
    something 

    Just 
    for 
    the length 
    of 

    Verse 6

    Embrace 
    me, 
    my 
    sweet 

    embrace
    able you 

    Embrace 
    me, 

    you 
    irre
    placeable 
    you 

    Don't 
    be 
    a naughty 
    baby, 

    come 
    to 
    mama, 

    Come 
    to 
    mama 
    do 


    Verse 7
    will 
    go 
    home, 
    will 
    try 
    again 

    will 
    catch 
    the 
    train 

    Catch 
    another 
    breath 

    Move 
    back 
    to 
    the 
    piano 
    and 

    Let 
    the notes 
    do 
    what they'll

    • 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.
