Verse 1
D

The moon is brighter than the sun

My shadow falls falls upon the landing,

as I drive your way

The trees hang from the branches
Dm

The moon hangs

from the sky

Waters lies flat in the gutter

While a rose climbs up the staircase
G

And falls upon the landing
Dm
D

And falls upon the landing

And as I wonder where you are
Dm

G
Gm

I'm so lonesome I could cry

She really is breathtaking as she lies

there softly sleeping

Undisturbed, and I wish,

And I wish my breath, my voice, my touch

Could awaken her

Yeah, awaken her again

I'm under a spell her name

Oh, I spell her name

I'm under a spell her name

There really is no reason for

the way that I am feeling

It could've been the weather

Or something less than that
Gm

I need to shed this old skin

for something that's much lighter

Maybe different colors

Maybe not so tight

It singes and it burns like a delicate veil

The pressure of her kiss

A third story jump ain't high enough

  • 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.
