  • Verse 1
    Lay 
    down 
    your weary 
    tune, lay 
    down, 

    Lay 
    down the 
    song 
    you 
    strum, 

    And 
    rest yourself 

    'neath the strength of 
    string

    No 
    voice can 
    hope 
    to 
    hum. 

    Struck 
    by the 
    sounds 
    be
    fore the 
    sun, 

    I knew the 
    night had 
    gone. 

    The 
    morning 
    breeze like 
    a bugle 
    blew 

    Against 
    the 
    drum
    of 
    dawn. 

    Lay 
    down your 
    weary 
    tune, lay 
    down, 

    Lay 
    down 
    the 
    song 
    you 
    strum, 

    And rest 
    your
    self 'neath 

    the strength of 
    string

    No 
    voice 
    can 
    hope 
    to hum. 

    The 
    ocean 
    wild 
    Verse 2
    like 
    an organ 
    played, 

    The 
    seaweed's wove 
    its 

    strands. 

    The crashin' 
    waves 

    like cymbals 
    clashed 

    Against 
    the 
    rock
    and 

    sands. 

    I stood unwound 
    beneath the 
    skies 
    Verse 3


    And clouds 
    un
    bound by 
    laws. 

    The crying 
    rain like 
    a trumpet 

    sang 

    And asked for 
    no 
    ap
    plause. 

    Lay 
    down 
    your 
    weary 
    tune, lay 
    down, 
    Lay 
    Verse 4

    down the 
    song you 
    strum, 

    And 
    rest your
    self 

    'neath the strength of 
    strings 

    No 
    voice can 
    hope 
    to 
    hum. 


    Verse 5

    The last 
    of leaves 
    fell from 

    the 
    trees 

    And clung to 
    new love's 

    breast. 

    The branches 
    bare like 
    a banjo 
    played 

    To 
    the winds that 
    listene
    d best. 

    Verse 6
    I gazed 
    down in 
    the 
    river's 

    mirror 

    And watched 
    its 
    winding 
    strum. 

    The water 
    smooth 
    ran like a 
    hymn 

    And like 
    harp 
    did hum. 

    Verse 7
    Lay 
    down your 
    weary 
    tun
    e, lay 
    down, 

    Lay 
    down the 
    song 

    you 

    strum, 

    And 
    rest 
    your
    self 
    'neath the 

    strength 
    of strings 

    No 
    voice 
    can 
    hope 
    to 

    hum.

    • 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.
