  • Verse 1
    The 
    streets 
    are 
    almost empty, 

    the shops 
    are all closed 
    down 

    There's 
    not a 
    soul left 
    in the 
    bar 

    to 
    tell my 
    troubles 
    to 

    Think 
    will 
    walk down 
    to 
    the river 

    that 
    heads just 
    south of 
    town 

    And 
    hate like 
    hell 

    when there ain't 
    nothin' 
    left to 
    do 

    But 
    stand 
    beneath the 
    river 
    bridge 

    and 
    listen 
    for the 
    train 

    It's 
    been a long 
    hot summer, 

    not 
    a drop of 
    rain 

    broke down 
    in December, 

    headed for 
    the coast 

    thought the 
    wind and 
    water 

    would 
    elevate 
    my 
    mind 

    sur
    faced 
    in the 
    springtime, 

    feeling like 
    a ghost 

    Losing 
    more 
    than 
    ever, 

    the 
    things I 
    left behind 

    Now 
    I'm 
    standing on 
    this 
    riverbank, 

    and 
    still 

    It's 
    been 
    a long 
    hot summer, 

    not 
    drop of 
    rain 

    My 
    bag is 
    full of 
    letters, 

    unopened 
    and unread 

    I'm 
    sure they 
    tell the 
    story 

    of 
    worry 
    and of 
    form 

    My 
    heart 
    is beating 
    heavy 

    with 
    all we 
    left unsaid 

    swear to 
    you I 

    never meant 
    you 
    any harm 

    The 
    sacrifice 
    and 
    compromise 

    could 
    never 
    stand this 
    strain 

    It's 
    been 
    a long hot 
    summer, 

    not a drop 
    of 
    rain 

    Tonight 
    I'll close 
    my 
    eyes 
    again, 

    try 
    to see 
    your 
    face 

    Listen 
    for 
    your 
    voice 

    to tell me 
    it's 
    alright to 
    sleep 

    Con
    vince 
    myself 

    I'll wake 
    up in 
    another 
    time 
    and place 

    Know
    ing 
    all 
    the while 

    it's 
    a promise I 
    can't 
    keep 

    string of 
    broken promises, 

    another 
    link 
    of change 

    It's 
    been a long 
    hot summer, 

    not a drop 
    of 
    rain 

    The 
    children on 
    the plane, 

    the 
    lovers in 
    the shade 

    Remind 
    me 
    of a 
    life in time 

    that 
    feels more 
    like a 
    dream 

    When 
    the 
    sound of 
    love and laughter 

    was 
    the music that 
    we played 

    As 
    we 
    lay beside 
    the 
    waters 

    of 
    a never -ending 
    stream 

    Now 
    the 
    stream's 
    gone into 
    hiding, 

    the 
    dream lives 
    on 
    in 
    vain 

    It's 
    been a 
    long hot 
    summer, 

    not 
    a drop of 
    rain 

    The 
    cloud
    s are 
    building slowly, 

    on 
    the skyline 
    to 
    the east 

    The 
    wind and 
    dust are 
    dancing, 

    like 
    the devil crossed 
    the 
    lake 

    could 
    try to 
    find a 
    bottle, 

    or 
    try to 
    find a priest 

    Salva
    tion 
    won't 
    be trouble, 

    either 
    road I 
    take 

    So I'll turn 
    my collar 
    to the 
    wind 

    that 
    echoes 
    this refrain 

    It's 
    been a 
    long hot summer, 

    not 
    a drop 
    of rain

      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

      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.
