    Verse 1
    I 
    wro

    te 
    a 
    letter 
    late 
    last 
    night 

    be
    fore 
    the 
    break 
    of 
    day 

    In 
    dead 
    of 
    night, 

    where 
    earthbound 
    souls 

    just 
    quietly 
    slip 
    away 

    When 
    the 
    sun 
    burn
    s bright 
    and 
    clear, 

    sail 
    it 
    in 
    blue 
    smiles 
    from 
    here 

    I 
    hope 
    it 
    finds 
    you 
    safe 
    and 
    well, 

    I 
    hope 
    it 
    finds 
    you 
    fine 

    I 
    wrote 
    it 
    from 
    a 
    time 
    back 

    when 
    I 
    knew 
    you 
    best 
    of 
    all 

    A 
    giant 
    then 
    of 
    endless 
    strength, 

    stood 
    so 
    proud 
    and 
    tall 

    Now 
    it 
    finds 
    its 
    way 
    to 
    withered 
    hands, 

    frus
    tration 
    of 
    a 
    mor
    tal 
    man 

    It's 
    read 
    by 
    eyes 
    so 
    blurred 
    and 
    tired 

    I 
    hope 
    you'll 
    understand 

    Old 
    man, 
    are 
    you 
    doing 
    fine? 

    I 
    want 
    you 
    to 
    know 

    that 
    you've 
    been 
    on 
    my 
    mind 

    Time 
    stands 
    still 
    for 
    no 
    one 

    But 
    a 
    part 
    of 
    you 
    is 
    carrying 
    on 

    Old 
    man, 
    old 
    man, 
    old 
    man, 

    old 
    man 

    We 
    didn't 
    do 
    the 
    things 
    we 
    dreamed 

    We 
    talked 
    man 
    to 
    man 

    But 
    I 
    got 
    that 
    yacht 
    we 
    spoke 
    about 

    And 
    I'm 
    looking 
    into 
    land 

    And 
    I 
    wish 
    you 
    could 
    have 

    heard 
    the 
    cheers 

    When 
    we 
    played 
    the 
    show 

    that 
    brought 
    us 
    here 

    Reckon 
    you'd 
    have 
    been 
    so 
    proud 

    If 
    you'd 
    been 
    here 
    by 
    the 
    hand 

    You've 
    been 
    the 
    same 

    through 
    all 
    the 
    years 

    Until 
    it's 
    lost 
    your 
    time 

    Now 
    the 
    man 
    I 
    knew 
    so 
    well 

    Is 
    oh 
    so 
    hard 
    to 
    find 

    Well 
    the 
    flame 
    burns 
    shorter 
    every 
    day 

    And 
    I 
    know 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    be 
    away 

    When 
    you 
    find 
    the 
    time 
    to 
    take 
    a 
    rest 

    And 
    let 
    this 
    world 
    pass 
    you 
    by 

    Old 
    man, 
    are 
    you 
    doing 
    fine? 

    I 
    want 
    you 
    to know 

    that 
    you've 
    been 
    on 
    my 
    mind 

    Time 
    stands 
    still 
    for 
    no 
    one 

    But 
    a 
    part 
    of 
    you 
    is 
    carrying 
    on 

    an old 
    man, 
    old 
    man, 

    old 
    man, 
    old 
    man 

    I'm 
    carrying 
    on, 

    I'm 
    carrying 
    on 

    I'm 
    carrying 
    on

      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.
