    • Verse 1
    Tossed about 
    the 
    ocean 

    in 
    boats 
    built 
    for 
    a 
    lake 

    Life 
    is 
    but 
    a 
    dream 
    a stream 
    of 

    beautiful 
    mistakes 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    On 
    a 
    quiet 
    lake 
    so 
    far 
    from 
    the 
    shore 

    We 
    had 
    paddled 
    for 
    an 
    hour 

    Back 
    would 
    be 
    way 
    more 

    Verse 3

    She 
    said 
    that's 
    just 
    great 

    What 
    is 
    wrong 
    with 
    you? 

    You 
    wait 
    'til 
    we're 
    trapped 
    in 
    a 
    boat 

    to 
    tell 
    me 
    we're 
    through? 

    Verse 4
    But 
    in 
    the safest 
    dark 
    it 

    had seemed 
    so 
    clear 

    Tell 
    the truth 
    and 
    let 
    the daylight 
    shine 

    Watch 
    the shadows 
    disappear 

    And 
    then 
    the morning 
    came 

    And 
    I 
    couldn't 
    bring 
    myself 
    to say 
    it 

    Verse 5

    So 
    we 
    went 
    through 
    all 
    seasons 

    Wrapped 
    in 
    safety 
    vests 

    The 
    bright 
    red 
    sun 
    it 
    seared 
    my 
    soul 

    Her 
    eyes 
    they 
    burned 
    the 
    rest 

    Verse 6
    You 
    must 
    really 
    hate 
    me 

    To have 
    planned 
    it 
    out 
    like 
    this 

    You 
    can 
    get 
    us 
    back 
    to 
    the 
    shore 

    I'm 
    not 
    rowing 
    shit 

    Verse 7
    And 
    then 
    the questions 
    came 

    With 
    no place 
    to 
    hide 

    Why 
    did 
    I 
    blurt 
    it 
    trapped 
    alone 
    in 
    a 
    boat 

    I 
    rowed 
    against 
    the 
    tide 

    I 
    guess 
    I 
    had 
    all 
    day 

    But I 
    couldn't 
    bring 
    myself 

    to say 
    it 

    Verse 8

    So 
    we 
    turned 
    in 
    our 
    vests 
    and 

    headed 
    to 
    our 
    cars 

    She 
    said 
    bye 
    and 
    drove 
    away 
    but 

    mine 
    it 
    would 
    not 
    start 

    And now 
    the 
    sun 
    is 
    setting 

    and 
    everyone 
    has 
    left 

    I'm 
    waiting 
    for 
    the tow 
    truck 
    now 

    and she's 
    just 
    sent 
    a 
    text 

    Verse 9
    She 
    says 

    You see, 
    these 
    last 
    few 
    days 
    I've 

    had 
    something 
    big 
    to say 

    How 
    romantic 
    it 
    would 
    be 
    to 
    wait 
    and 

    I 
    could tell 
    you 
    on 
    the 
    lake 

    But 
    then 
    you 
    dropped 
    that 
    bomb 

    And 
    I 
    couldn't 
    bring 
    myself 
    to say 
    it

      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.
