    G

    Late

    last night I awoke in a dream

    Dsus4
    D

    Oh oh oh
    Dsus4
    G

    From out of the city

    and out of the street

    Out where the wind hits
    Am

    the cold concrete

    Dm

    On a crowded street on
    Am

    a hot summer day
    G
    Dsus4
    D

    She was alone
    G

    Three months late and beginning to show
    Dm

    In a midriff blouse she

    would soon outgrow
    Am

    She had no one to call
    G
    Dsus4
    D

    And no way home

    G

    Eb

    And I knew that I would

    wander as child in the forest

    Till they found me

    not penetrate the silence

    D
    C
    G
    Am

    for an eternity

    But others lie awake at night

    In desperation more profound

    And the coming of the morning light
    G

    Will not see them mercy bound
    Verse 6
    C

    And some will never dream again
    Dsus4

    From sleeping on the ground
    D
    Am

    Just longing to belong

    And dying to be

    • 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.
