    Verse 1
    The 
    cool 
    night 
    soothes 

    my 
    tired 
    face 
    with 
    a 
    heal
    ing 
    hand 

    Is 
    there 
    a 
    bless
    ing 
    or 
    a 
    curse 
    that 

    carries 
    the 
    weight 
    of 
    man? 

    The 
    heartache 
    of 
    a 
    sleeping 
    world 

    Dis
    torted 
    by 
    all 
    the 
    noise 
    of 
    time 

    Oh, 
    in 
    this 
    complicated 
    life 
    of 
    mine 

    I 
    always 
    feel 
    I'm 
    in 
    decline 

    Coin
    cidence, 
    a 
    dream, 

    that's 
    a 
    mystery 

    So 
    I 
    plumb 
    myself 
    beneath 
    a 
    tree 

    I 
    watched 
    the 
    ocean 
    peel 

    away 
    my 
    dreams 

    But 
    the 
    killing 
    me 

    Is 
    not 
    what 
    I 
    thought 
    life 

    would 
    turn 
    out 
    to 
    be 

    Oh, 
    when 
    I 
    was 
    seven
    teen 

    I 
    was 
    living 
    the 
    dream 

    An
    d 
    not 
    what 
    I 
    thought 
    life 
    was 

    gonna 
    be 

    Oh, 
    there's 
    no 
    con
    flict, 

    character, 
    no 
    point 

    No 
    dramas, 
    only 
    dust 
    and 
    joy 

    The 
    pilgrims 
    only 
    progress 

    Cause 
    they 
    were 
    ahead 
    of 
    the 
    tide 

    All 
    this 
    troubled 
    summer, 
    I 
    shall 
    try 

    To 
    catch 
    the 
    moonbeams 

    while 
    I'm 
    riding 
    high 

    Oh, 
    so 
    I 
    try 
    to 
    hold 
    a 
    conversation 

    With 
    a 
    memory 
    occupied 

    by 
    visions 
    of 
    riverbanks 

    I 
    give 
    it 
    back 
    for 
    history 

    I'm 
    not 
    walking 
    with 
    my 

    head 
    in 
    my 
    hands 

    It's 
    just 
    that 
    all 
    the 
    better 

    luck 
    I'll 
    be 
    stealing 

    Dreams, 
    oh, 
    they 
    trouble 
    me 

    That's 
    not 
    what 
    I 
    thought 

    life 
    would 
    turn 
    out 
    to 
    be 

    Oh, 
    when 
    I 
    was 
    sev
    en
    teen 

    I 
    was 
    living 
    in 
    a 
    dream 

    That's 
    not 
    what 
    I 
    thought 
    my 
    life 
    would 
    turn 
    out 
    to 
    be 



    Oh, 
    I'm 
    living 
    the 
    dream, 

    and 
    it's 
    killing 
    me 

    It's 
    not 
    what 
    I 
    thought 
    life 

    would 
    turn 
    out 
    to 
    be 

    Oh, 
    now 
    I'm 
    living 
    the 
    dream, 

    and what 
    you're 
    doing 
    with 
    me 

    It's 
    not 
    how 
    I 
    thought 

    life 
    was 
    gonna 
    be 

    Oh, 
    and 
    this 
    complicated 
    life 
    of 
    mine 

    I'll 
    al
    ways 
    feel

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
