    Verse 1
    The 
    years 
    creep 
    slowly 
    by, 

    lorena 

    The 
    snow 
    is 
    on 
    the 
    grass 
    again 

    The 
    sun's 
    low 
    down 
    the 
    sky, lorena 

    The 
    frost 
    gleams 
    where 

    the 
    flowers 
    have 
    been 

    But 
    my 
    heart beats 
    on as warmly 
    now 

    As when 
    the summer 
    days were nigh 

    The 
    sun can 
    never dip 
    so 
    low 

    Or 
    down 
    affections cloudless 
    sky 

    A hundred 
    months 

    have 
    passed, lorena 

    Since 
    last 
    held 
    that 
    hand in 
    mine 

    And 
    felt 
    the 
    pulse 
    beat fast, 

    lorena 

    Though mine beat 
    faster far 
    than thine 

    hundred 
    months, 

    'twas flowery 
    may 

    When up 
    the hilly 
    slope 
    we 
    climbed 

    To 
    watch 
    the dying 
    of 
    the day 

    And hear the 
    distant 
    church 

    bells chime 

    We loved 
    each 
    other then, lorena 

    More 
    than 
    we ever 
    dared 
    to tell 

    And 
    what we 
    might have 
    been, lorena 

    Had 
    but 
    our 
    lovings prospered 

    well 

    But then, 'tis 
    past, the 
    years 
    are 
    gone 

    I'll not 
    call 
    up 
    their shadow
    y forms 

    I'll say 
    to 
    them, 
    "lost years, 
    sleep 
    on! 

    Sleep 
    on! 
    nor 
    heed 
    life's 

    pelting 
    storms 

    The story 
    of that 
    past, lorena 

    Alas! I care 
    not to repeat 

    The hopes 
    that could not 
    last, 
    lorena 

    They 
    lived, 
    but only 
    lived 
    to cheat 

    would not 
    cause 
    e'en one 
    regret 

    To rankle 
    in 
    your 
    bosom 
    now 

    For "if 
    we 
    try, we may forget 

    Were words 
    of 
    thine long years ago 


    Yes, these were words of thine, 
    lorena 

    They 
    burn within 
    my memory 
    yet 

    They 
    touched some 
    tender chords, 

    lorena 

    Which 
    thrill and 
    tremble 
    with regret 

    'twas 
    not thy woman's 

    heart that 
    spoke 

    Thy heart was 
    always true to 
    me 

    A duty, 
    stern and pressing, 
    broke 

    The tie which 
    linked my 
    soul 

    with thee 

    It matters little 
    now, 

    loren

    The past is in the eternal 
    past 

    Our 
    heads will 
    soon lie low, 
    lorena 

    Life's tide 
    is ebbing 

    out so fast 

    There is a future! 
    o, thank god! 

    Of life 
    this 
    is so small 
    part! 

    It is dust to 
    dust 
    be
    neath 

    the 

    sod 

    But there, 
    up there, 
    it 
    is 
    heart to 
    heart

    • 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.
