C
Eighty years, an
old lady now,
sitting on the front porch
Watching the clouds roll by
They remind her of her lover, how he left her, and of times long ago,
When she used color carelessly,
painted his portrait
A thousand times,
or maybe just his smile,
Her and her canvas would follow him
wherever he would go
Verse 2
Em
'Cause they were painters and they
C
were painting themselves
Am
C
A lovely world
Verse 3
C
Oil streaked daisies covered
the living room walls
He put water colored roses in her hair
He said, "Love, I love you,
I want to give you the mountains,
the sunshine,
The sunset too
I want to give you a world as beautiful
Em
as you are to me"
C
'Cause I'm a painter and I want
Verse 4
Am
to paint you
C
A lovely way
Verse 5
C
So they sat down and made a drawing of their love,
They made it an art to live by
They painted every passion, every home,
created every beautiful child
In the winter they were
weavers of warmth,
In the summer they were carpenters
of love
They thought blue prints were too
sad so they made them yellow
Em
And they were painters and they had
Verse 6
C
painted themselves
Am
C
A lovely world
Verse 7
C
Until one day the rain fell
as thick as black oil
And in her heart she
knew something was wrong
She went running through the
orchard screaming,
F

"No God, don't take him
from me!"
F
But by the time she got there,
C

she feared he already had gone
F

She got to where he lay,

water colored roses in his hands for her

With nothing left behind but these cold paintings,

these cold portraits

To remind me!"

I put my soul in this life we've

Love, I leave, but only a little,

this world holds me still

Verse 9
So many seasons came
and many seasons went
And many times she saw her love's
face watering the flowers,
G
Talking to the trees
C
and singing to his children,
And when the wind blew,
she knew he was listening,
And how he seemed to laugh along, and
how he seemed to hold her
When she was crying

'Cause they were painters and they had painted themselves

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
