    • Verse 1
    She 
    placed 

    her 
    ring 
    on 
    the sill, 

    Dishes 
    piled 
    high 

    She's 
    on the 
    front 
    porch 
    step 

    And 
    the air smells 
    like 
    snow 

    She's 
    thinking 
    of the 
    siege 

    to come 

    And how she'll 
    miss 
    those 
    weekends 

    In the 
    park 
    with the 
    sun 
    on her face 

    And her 
    book by 
    her side 
    and that 

    Lingering 
    taste 
    that he 
    left 
    on her tongue 

    Verse 2
    He 
    lifts his 
    glass 
    from 
    the table 

    It 
    leaves 
    a 
    ring where 
    it stood 

    He 
    sees 
    the 
    light 
    from 
    the 
    win
    dow 

    Caress 
    her like 
    he knows 
    he 
    should 

    He's 
    re
    membering 
    the 
    first 
    time 

    he kissed 
    her 

    And how he'd 
    wake 

    And immediately 
    he'd 
    miss 
    her, 

    Like 
    a spell, 
    with each 
    breath, 

    He'd 
    taste 
    her 
    breath 
    like 
    a 
    haunting, 

    Ir
    ritating 
    as 
    hell 

    Do you 
    re
    member 
    when 
    you'd 
    Verse 3
    pray 

    To 
    never 
    see the 
    day 

    When 
    someone 
    would make 

    you feel 
    this 
    way 

    'Cause you 
    knew 

    They would 
    cut 
    right 
    through 
    you 

    And 
    once 
    inside, 

    you were afraid 
    they'd find 

    Nothing 
    to 
    hold 
    on 
    to 

    Verse 4

    He puts 
    her 
    ring 
    on her fin
    ger, 

    She 
    brushes 
    back his 
    hair 

    He takes 
    a 
    sip 
    from 
    his glass, 

    She 
    in
    hales 
    the cold 
    fall 
    air 

    And 
    they're 
    thinking 
    of the 

    long 
    road ahead 

    And the 
    strength that 
    they will 
    need 

    Just to 
    reach 
    the 
    end 

    And 
    there 
    in the silence 

    they 
    search 
    for 

    The balance 
    between this 

    fear 
    that 
    they 
    feel 

    And 
    a love 
    that 
    has 
    graced 
    their 
    lives

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.

      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

      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 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
