    Verse 1
    The night 
    sets 
    softly 

    With the hush 
    of fall
    ing 
    leaves 

    Casting 
    shivering 
    shadows 

    On the houses 
    through 
    the 
    trees 

    And 
    the light 
    from a street 

    lamp 

    Paints a pattern 
    on 
    my 
    wall 

    Like 
    the pieces 
    of 
    a puzzle 

    Or a child's 
    uneven 
    scrawl 

    Verse 2

    Up a narrow 
    flight 
    of stairs 

    In a narrow 
    little 
    room 

    As 
    I lie 
    upon 
    my bed 

    In the early 
    even
    ing 
    gloom 

    Im
    paled 
    on my 
    wall 

    My 
    eyes 
    can dimly 
    see 

    The 
    pattern 
    of my 
    life 

    And 
    the 
    puzzle 
    that 
    is me 

    Verse 3

    From the moment 
    of 
    my birth 

    To the in
    stant of 
    my 
    death 

    There are 
    patterns 
    I must 
    follow 

    Just as 
    I must 
    breathe each 
    breath 

    Like a 
    rat 
    in a maze 

    The path before 
    me 
    lies 

    And the 
    pattern 
    never 
    al
    ters 

    Un
    til 
    the 
    rat dies 

    Verse 4

    The pattern 
    still remains 

    On the 
    wall where 
    darkness 
    fell 

    And 
    it's fitting 
    that it should 

    For 
    in darkness 
    I must 
    dwell 

    Like the 
    col
    or 
    of my 
    skin 

    Or the 
    day that 
    I grow 
    old 

    My 
    life 
    is made of 
    pat
    terns 

    That can 
    scarcely 
    be controlled

    • 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.”
