    Verse 1
    I've 
    been 
    lately 
    thinking 

    About 
    my 
    life's 
    time 

    All 
    the 
    things 
    I've 
    done 

    And 
    how 
    it's 
    been 

    And 
    can't 
    help 
    believing 

    In 
    my 
    own 
    mind 

    know 
    I'm 
    gonna 
    hate 
    to 
    see 
    it 
    end 

    Verse 2
    I've 
    seen 
    lot 
    of 
    sunshine 

    Slept 
    out 
    in 
    the 
    rain 

    Spent 
    night 
    or 
    two 
    all 
    on 
    my 
    own 

    I've 
    known 
    my 
    lady's 
    pleasures 

    Had 
    myself 
    some 
    friends 

    And 
    spent 
    time 
    or 
    two 
    in 
    my 
    own 
    home 

    Pre-chorus 1
    And 
    have 
    to 
    say 
    it 
    now 

    It's 
    been 
    good 
    life 
    all 
    in 
    all 

    It's 
    really 
    fine 

    To 
    have 
    chance 
    to 
    hang 
    a
    round 

    And 
    lie 
    there 
    by 
    the 
    fire 

    And 
    watch 
    the 
    evening 
    tire 

    While 
    all 
    my 
    friends 
    and 
    my 
    old 
    lady 

    Sit 
    and 
    pass 
    the 
    pipe 
    a
    round 

    Chorus 1
    And 
    talk 
    of 
    poems 
    and 
    prayers 
    and 
    prom
    ises 

    And 
    things 
    that 
    we 
    be
    lieve 
    in 

    How 
    sweet 
    it 
    is 
    to 
    love 
    someone 

    How 
    right 
    it 
    is 
    to 
    care 

    How 
    long 
    it's 
    been 
    since 
    yes
    terday 

    And 
    what 
    about 
    to
    morrow 

    And 
    what 
    about 
    our 
    dreams 

    And 
    all 
    the 
    memories 
    we 
    share 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 3
    The 
    days 
    they 
    pass 
    so 
    quickly 
    now 

    Nights 
    are 
    seldom 
    long 

    And 
    time 
    around 
    me 

    whispers 
    when 
    it's 
    cold 

    The 
    changes 
    somehow 
    frighten 
    me 

    Still 
    have 
    to 
    smile 

    It 
    turns 
    me 
    on 
    to 
    think 
    of 
    growing 
    old 

    Verse 4
    For 
    though 
    my 
    life's 
    been 
    good 
    to 
    me 

    There's 
    still 
    so 
    much 
    to 
    do 

    So 
    many 
    things 
    my 
    mind 
    has 
    never 
    known 

    I'd 
    like 
    to 
    raise 
    family 

    I'd 
    like 
    to 
    sail 
    away 

    And 
    dance 
    across 
    the 
    mountains 

    on 
    the 
    moon 

    Pre-chorus 2
    have 
    to 
    say 
    it 
    now 

    It's 
    been 
    good 
    life 
    all 
    in 
    all 

    It's 
    really 
    fine 

    To 
    have 
    chance 
    to 
    hang 
    a
    round 

    And 
    lie 
    there 
    by 
    the 
    fire 

    And 
    watch 
    the 
    evening 
    tire 

    While 
    all 
    my 
    friends 
    and 
    my 
    old 
    lady 

    Sit 
    and 
    pass 
    the 
    pipe 
    a
    round 

    Chorus 2
    And 
    talk 
    of 
    poems 
    and 
    prayers 
    and 
    prom
    ises 

    And 
    things 
    that 
    we 
    be
    lieve 
    in 

    How 
    sweet 
    it 
    is

    love 
    someone 

    How 
    right 
    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

      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.
