  • Verse 1
    I can 
    feel 
    your arms 
    around 

    me 
    like 
    it 
    was yesterday 

    can feel 
    your 
    breathing 
    next 
    to me 

    and 
    hear your 
    laughter 
    gay 

    You tried 
    to tell 
    me 
    what 
    was right 

    and I 
    told 
    you 
    what was 
    real 

    All 
    ever 
    live 
    for 
    now 
    is this 
    piece 

    of 
    wood 
    and steel 

    Verse 2

    In 
    a world 
    that's 
    full 
    of trouble 

    a world 
    that's 
    full 
    of pain 

    Lord 
    many 
    fall 
    beside 
    the road 

    and they 
    never 
    rise 
    again 

    Many 
    more 
    are 
    bending 
    low 

    or broken 
    at 
    the wheel 

    All 
    need 
    to carry 
    on 
    is this 
    piece 

    of 
    wood 
    and steel 

    Verse 3

    I was 
    born 
    my 
    mother's 
    only 
    son 

    she 
    loves 
    me 
    all 
    she can 

    But 
    there 
    isn't 
    much 
    to say 
    to her 

    since 
    became 
    a man 

    And I 
    often 
    met 
    the devil 
    but 

    never 
    made 
    a deal 

    I just 
    thank 
    the Lord 
    for 
    hands 
    to play 

    this 
    piece 
    of 
    wood 
    and 
    steel 

    Verse 4

    Its 
    face 
    is 
    scarred 
    and 
    beaten 

    like the 
    ragged 
    clothes 
    wear 

    Like 
    the body 
    that 
    God 
    gave 
    me 

    I might 
    give 
    it 
    better 
    care 

    But 
    I play 
    it for 
    the ladies 

    and I play 
    it 
    for 
    a meal 

    play 
    the strings 
    just 
    to hear 
    'em ring 

    of this 
    piece 
    of 
    wood and 
    steel 

    Verse 5

    I'm 
    growing 
    tired 
    of 
    searching 
    now 

    there's 
    something 
    much 
    crave 

    Give 
    or take 
    a little 
    time 
    and you can 

    write 
    it 
    on my 
    grave 

    There's 
    nothing 
    more 
    I care 

    to own 
    nothing 
    left 
    to feel 

    All 
    ever 
    wanted 
    was 
    this 
    piece 

    of 
    wood 
    and 
    steel 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 6
    I can 
    feel 
    your 
    arms 
    around

    like 
    it 
    was 
    yester
    day 

    can feel 
    your 
    breathing 
    next 
    to me 

    and hear your 
    laughter 
    gay 

    You tried 
    to tell 
    me 
    what 
    was right 

    and I 
    told 
    you 
    what was

    of trouble 

    a world 
    that's 
    full 
    of pain 

    Lord 
    many 
    fall 
    beside 
    the road 

    and they 
    never

    on 
    is this 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 7
    I was

    my 
    mother's 
    only 

    son 
    she 
    loves 
    me 
    all 
    she can 

    But

    (I'll be playing 
    this 
    guitar 

    till 
    the day 
    I die)

    • 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.
