    Verse 1
    Does 
    the light 
    of 

    passion 
    still 
    burn 
    bright? 

    Only 
    love 
    would 
    know 
    my 
    ima
    gina
    tion 

    Tells 
    me 
    I'm 
    pent-up 
    fool fool 

    in 
    the 
    deep 
    end 
    of 
    the 
    pool 

    Is 
    the 
    light 
    of 
    passion 
    burnin' 
    tonight? 

    Only 
    love 
    would 
    know, 

    only 
    love 
    would 
    know 

    Verse 2
    She lives 
    on 
    the 
    other 
    side, 

    you 
    wanna 
    know 
    the reas
    on 
    why 

    She 
    arrives 
    at 
    promises 
    and 
    you 

    believe 
    in 
    what 
    she says 

    Everywhere 
    you go 


    Is 
    the 
    light 
    of 
    passion 

    burnin' 
    bright? 

    Everywhere 
    you 
    go, 

    only 
    love 
    would 
    know 

    Verse 3
    You think, 
    you've 
    been 

    wronged 
    again 

    Oh what a 
    way 
    to treat 
    a friend 

    She 
    belongs 
    to 
    other 
    eyes 

    and 
    surely 
    you 
    must 
    realize 

    She 
    ain't 
    the kind 

    who would 
    soon 
    step 
    aside 

    Pay 
    any 
    dues 
    at 
    the 
    ex
    pense 

    of 
    her 
    pride 

    Everywhere 
    she goes, 
    only 
    love 
    would know 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 4
    In 
    the 
    days 
    gone 
    by 
    came 
    to 
    believe 

    Everything 
    is 
    trust, 

    all 
    the rest 
    is 
    dust 

    Mother 
    nature, 
    mother 
    dear, 

    listen 
    to us 
    over 
    here 

    Are 
    the 
    sounds 
    of 
    laughter 
    ringing 
    true? 

    Only 
    love 
    would 
    know, 

    only 
    love 
    would 
    do 

    Verse 5
    She lives 
    on 
    another 
    plane 
    away 

    from the 
    driv
    in' 
    rain 

    She says 
    no, 
    you say 
    yes 

    And 
    that's 
    how 
    it should 
    be 
    guess 

    Only 
    love 
    would 
    know 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 6
    May 
    the 
    light 
    of 
    love 
    surround 
    you 
    tonight 

    Everywhere 
    you go, 

    only 
    love 
    would 
    know 

    Verse 7
    You think, 
    you 
    were wrong 
    until 

    You 
    learned 
    once 
    and 
    for all 
    it's 
    still 

    One 
    more 
    lesson 
    on 
    the way 

    Or 
    that is 
    what 
    it 
    seemed 
    to say 

    Verse 8
    She's 
    not 
    the kind 
    who would 

    soon 
    step 
    down 

    Not 
    the 
    kind 
    you would 
    try 

    to walk 
    around 

    When only 
    thought 
    would 

    go 
    very 
    well 

    You can 
    tell 
    by 
    the touch 

    Ah 
    but 
    only 
    love 
    would 
    know 

    Verse 9

    Passion 
    burnin' 
    bright 

    Tears 
    of 
    passion 
    late 
    at 
    night 

    Is 
    the 
    light of 
    passion 

    burning 
    bright? 

    Everywhere 
    you go, 
    only 
    love 
    would 
    know

    • 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.
