Restless chords by

Verse 1
G

There's a kind of a restless
F

feeling and it pulls me from within
G

It sets my senses reeling and
F
G

my wheels begin to spin
C

In the quietude of winter you can
Bb

hear the wild geese cry
G

And I will always love that sound
F
Dm

until the day I die
G

There's a plain and a simple answer
F

to each and every quest
G

From every quiet dance who
F
G

might be a special guest
C

In a movie made for TV or a late
Bb

night interview
G

You might even find them on the
F
G

Young and the Restless too

Do ya get that restless feelin'
C

when you hear a whistle blast
Bb

Like an echo from the past
G

C

Of an old engine flyin' down a road that's

iron cast

G

The lake is blue, the sky is gray,
F

the leaves have turned to gold
G

The wild goose will be on her way,
F
G

the weather's much too cold
C

When the muskie and the old trout
Bb

too have all gone down to rest
G
F

We will be returning to the thing
G

s that we love be st

Do ya get that restless yearning

when you think about your dad

And the scrimshaw that he had

G


There's a kind of a restless feeling
F

and it catches you off guard
G

As we gaze off at the distance through
F
G

the trees in my back yard
C

I can feel that restless yearning of
Bb

those geese as off they roam
G

Then trade that for a warm bed
F
G

and a place I can call home

Will ya get that restless yearning
C

when you hear the wicked blast
Gm

Of a specter from the past
G
F

Of a cold diesel rollin' down
C
F
G

a road that's built to last

Still I get that restless feelin'
C

when I hear a whistle blast
Gm

See an image from the past

Of an old schooner flyin' down a sky

  • 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.
