  • Verse 1
    Lay 
    down 
    your weary 
    chum, 

    lay 
    down, 

    lay down 
    the 
    songs 
    you 
    strum 

    And 
    rest 
    your
    self, 

    need the 
    strength 
    of 
    strings, 

    no voice 
    can 
    hope 
    to 
    hum 

    Struck 
    by 
    the 
    sound 

    before 
    the sun

    I knew 
    the 
    night 
    had 
    gone, 

    And the 
    morning 
    breeze 
    like 
    a bugle 
    blew 

    Against 
    the 
    drum
    of dawn. 

    Lay 
    down, 
    you 
    weary 
    tun
    e, 

    lay 
    down, 

    Lay down 
    the 
    songs 
    you 
    strum, 

    And 
    lest 
    your
    self 
    need to 

    strength 
    of 
    strings, 

    Your voice 
    can 
    hold 
    to 
    hum. 

    The 
    ocean 
    wild 
    like 
    an organ 
    plays, 

    And the 
    seaweed 
    woven 
    strand
    s, 

    And 
    the crashing 
    waves 

    like 
    cymbals 
    clash, 

    Against 
    the 
    rock
    and sand. 

    Lay 
    down, 
    you 
    weary 
    tomb, 
    lay 
    down, 

    lay 
    down 
    the 
    songs 
    you 
    strum 

    And 
    rest 
    your
    self 
    neath 
    the sprint of 
    strings, 


    your voice 
    can 
    all 
    overcome 

    stood 
    around 
    beneath 
    the 
    skies 

    and 
    the 
    clouds 
    un
    bound 
    by 
    laws 

    And 
    the 
    crying 
    rain 
    like a 
    trumpet 
    sang, 

    And 
    as 
    for 
    no 
    ap
    plause, 

    The 
    last 
    of 
    the knees 
    fell 

    from 
    the trees. 

    And long 
    to 
    new love's 

    The 
    branches 
    bare 
    like 
    a banjo 
    moaned, 

    To the 
    winds 
    that 
    glisten 
    the 
    be
    st 

    Lay 
    down, 
    you 
    weary 
    tun
    e, 
    lay 
    down 

    Lay 
    down 
    the 
    songs 
    you 
    strum 

    And 
    rest 
    your
    self, 

    meet 
    the strength 
    of 
    string 

    Your 
    voice 
    can 
    hold 
    to 
    hum 

    gazed 
    down 
    in 
    the 
    river's 
    mill 

    And 
    watched 
    its 
    whining 
    strum, 

    Its 
    water 
    smooth 
    ran 
    like 
    a hymn, 

    And like 
    harp 
    it hummed. 

    Lay 
    down, 
    you 
    weary 
    choom, 
    lay 
    down, 

    Lay 
    down 
    the 
    songs 
    you've 
    strung, 

    And 
    whereas 
    you'll 
    serve 
    me to 

    sprinkle 
    spring, 

    Your voice 
    can 
    hold 
    your 
    palm. 



    Lay 
    down, 
    you 
    weary 
    Jew

    lay 
    down 

    Lay 
    down 
    the 
    songs 
    you've 
    strung 

    And 
    rescue 
    him
    self, 

    he just 
    drank 
    spring 

    Your 
    voice 
    can 
    hold 
    to 
    hum 

    Your 
    voice 
    can 
    hold 
    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.
