    Verse 1
    circled 
    twice 
    then 

    pulled 
    in by 
    the 
    shopping 
    carts 

    In a cold 
    steady 
    rain 
    coming 

    down 
    in the parking 
    lot 

    saw 
    him leave 
    his 
    truck 

    running 
    and 
    duck 
    into 
    the 
    store 

    just 
    sat 
    there 
    thinking 
    I'd 
    seen 
    him 
    before 

    Verse 2
    There was 
    something 
    so 
    familiar 
    about 
    him 

    In 
    the eyes 
    of 
    someone 

    who hasn't 
    forgotten 

    The shape 
    of a chance 
    as it 

    catches 
    the 
    light 

    In the millions 
    of rain 
    drops 
    falling 
    that 
    night 

    Verse 3
    So 
    I dug 
    in my 
    bag 
    for 
    a pen 

    and some 
    paper 

    Found 
    an 
    envelope, 
    tore 
    it 
    in 
    half 

    wrote 
    down 
    some 
    words 
    with 
    my 

    name 
    and my 
    number 

    And then 
    took 
    a big 
    breath 

    Verse 4
    There's 
    nothing 
    holding 
    us 
    down 

    I'm not 
    made 
    of stone 
    or of 
    steel 

    I slipped 
    it 
    beneath 
    the wiper 
    blades 

    Just 
    a note 
    on 
    a wind
    shield 

    Verse 5
    When you find 
    yourself 
    out 

    of things 
    to 
    believe 
    in 

    Apart 
    and adrift, 

    no 
    point 
    and no 
    reason 

    Is there 
    nothing 
    to 
    fear 
    because 

    there's 
    nothing 
    to 
    lose? 

    If 
    it 
    were 
    a choice 
    which 
    one 

    Verse 6
    would 
    you 
    choose? 

    There's 
    time 
    you can 
    trust 

    and time 
    that 
    you 
    question 

    Time 
    you 
    ignore 
    and time 

    you don't 
    mention 

    Time 
    that 
    you 
    wish 
    you could 

    get 
    back 
    somehow 

    When 
    see 
    you how 
    fast 
    its 

    flying 
    by 
    now 

    Verse 7
    There's 
    nothing 
    holding 
    us 
    down 

    I'm 
    not 
    made 
    of stone 
    or of steel 

    Will the 
    wind 
    blow 
    you away 

    Like a note 
    on a 
    windshield 

    Verse 8
    There's 
    nothing 
    holding 
    us 
    down 

    And 
    no 
    words 
    for 
    the 
    way 
    that 
    you feel 

    You 
    just 
    watch 
    the rain 
    pour 

    On 
    a note 
    on 
    a wind
    shield 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 9
    Some 
    days 
    still 
    think 

    could 
    be 
    someone 
    else 

    Those 
    are the 
    days 
    feel 

    lost 
    to my
    self 

    Mistaking 
    a stranger, 
    misplacing 
    heart 

    How to put 
    back 
    together 

    Verse 10
    what's 
    been 
    taken 
    apart 

    I didn't 
    want 
    to leave 
    but I 

    didn't 
    want 
    to linger 

    Fa
    talist, 
    optimist, 
    magical 
    thinker 

    You 
    only 
    hold 
    on 
    until 
    you 
    let 
    go 

    Turning 
    the 
    key, 
    I pulled 
    away 
    slow 

    Verse 11
    There's 
    nothing 
    holding 
    us 
    down 

    As 
    my 
    hands 
    were turning 
    the wheel 

    The 
    rain 
    washed 
    word
    s away 

    From a 
    note 
    on 
    windshield 

    There's 
    nothing 
    holding 

    us 
    down 

    When there's 
    nothing 
    left 
    to 
    reveal 

    We 
    are 
    light, 
    we 
    are 
    weightless 
    and 

    brave 
    Like 
    a note 
    on 
    a wind
    shield

    • 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.
