  • Verse 1
    With 
    the 
    first 
    light 

    and 
    the 
    little 
    fragile 
    moon 

    was 
    out 
    on 
    the 
    porch, 

    now 
    I'm 
    ready 
    for 
    doom 

    And 
    it's 
    funny 
    how 
    it 
    all 
    came 
    to 
    be 

    The 
    way 
    you 
    so 
    plainly 
    choose 
    to 
    stare 
    at 
    me 

    (And 
    four, 
    three, 
    two) 

    Verse 2
    And 
    the 
    afternoon's 
    em
    bracing 
    you 

    like 
    million 
    worried 
    hands 

    And 
    want 
    to 
    look 
    forward, 

    go 
    dis
    cover 
    foreign 
    lands 

    In 
    the 
    mirror, 
    was 
    balancing 
    on 

    tiny 
    strings 

    It 
    looks 
    silly, 
    but 
    oh 
    really 

    it's 
    just 
    physical 
    thing 

    Verse 3
    So 
    tell 
    me 
    why 
    you'd 
    ask 
    me 
    to 
    do 
    as 
    please 

    would 
    rather 
    fall 
    backwards 

    and 
    forget 
    every
    thing 

    And 
    I've 
    tried 
    to 
    call 
    on 
    you 

    when 
    know 
    you're 
    not 
    home 

    I'm 
    not 
    ready 
    for 
    this, 
    but 
    it's 
    the 
    way 
    it 
    goes 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    It 
    was 
    easier 
    when 
    knew 
    nothing 

    of 
    what 
    I'd 
    missed 

    You're 
    so 
    happy 
    can 
    see 
    it 

    and 
    that's 
    the 
    worst 
    part 
    of 
    it 

    So 
    let 
    her 
    take 
    you 
    out 
    on 
    sea 

    will 
    wave 
    to 
    you 
    from 
    the 
    harbor, 

    oh 
    little 
    silly 
    me 

    Bridge 1

    • 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.
