Dear friend of mine,
Bsus4
Bm
A

the weather's fine

Today I saw the surroundings
Bsus4
A

of the Roman world's decline
F#m
G

And I climbed up those Spanish stairs,
D

you've heard of them, no doubt
Bm
Esus4
E

But Rome has lost its glory,
Em

I don't know what it's about
Asus4

And I wish you were me
D

When the shadows fall,
Bm
A
G

and all the rushing traffic stills
Asus4
D

Wish you were me
Bm

And the bells are ringing on the seven hills
G

I make my way to a small cafe
Em

I wonder what you did today
Asus4
A

Dear one at home

I just flew in from Rome

Paris is a postcard

All decked out in color chrome

So I climbed the Eiffel Tower, I,
D
A

I prayed at Notre Dame
Bsus4
Esus4

But I just can't
E

find a romance,
Em

and I wonder why I came
Asus4

And I wish you were here
D

The Champs -Élysées,
Bm
G

lovers walking hand in hand
Asus4

Wish you were here
D

They take one look at me
Bm

and seem to understand
G

This city of light is a lovely sight
Em

The first bright star I see tonight
Asus4
A
B

I wish you were here
E

And now I write this from the pain
A

Drinking cheap champagne

Wondering how two people

got so far apart
Bsus4
E

And I wish you were here in London
C#m
E
A
Bsus4

Where the rain is pouring down
E

On this airplane heading

back to New York

I'll never leave you alone again,
F#m
Bsus4

I'm coming home but until then,
E

I wish you were here.

I've been all around
C#m

this great big world
A

all on my own
E

I wish you were here,
B

None of it's any good
C#m
B
A

when you're traveling alone

Wish you were here
E

You hear people talking all the time
C#m
B

about that Taj Mahal
A

Wish you were here
E

When you get up close
B
C#m
B
A

it ain't really much of anything at all
E

I went down to Costa Rica
C#m
A

to a little place called Takeaway Bay,
E

didn't do much but sit around
B
C#m
B
A

and think about you all day.

Mmm -mmm -mmm -mmm -m m....

  • 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.
