Hey when
Em

the need becomes too strong or long

And drawn out for me to take

Like a cigarette burn to the fleshy

turbines of my heart
Em

That faded afternoon floats
Am
C

breezily into my memory
Em

Cool shafts of light appear

and I'm left here

Standing naked on my own

Your voice is small on

A million miles away
Em

But if I turned it off
Am

I would not hear the little
G

things you say

The world must chill
Em

And like a king I ring up old acquaintances

It's like the man says I

The date's irrelevant but she was drunk

In the heat of the June night

The faces in the windows

Into dawn's early light

The flailing arm s and

scrambling eggs I fled

On my two shambling legs

I gotta go I said - they

Your voice got smaller

'til I realized

It was gone

  • 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.
