    Verse 1
    should 
    have 
    known 
    better 

    To 
    see 
    what 
    could 
    see 

    My 
    black 
    shroud 

    Holding 
    down 
    my 
    feelings 

    pillar 
    for 
    my 
    ene
    mies 

    should 
    have 
    wrote 
    letter 

    And 
    grieve 
    what 
    happen 
    to 
    grieve 

    My 
    black 
    shroud 

    never 
    trust 
    my 
    feelings 

    waited 
    for 
    the 
    reme
    dy 

    Pre-chorus 1
    When 
    was 
    three, 
    three 
    maybe 
    four 

    She 
    left 
    us 
    at 
    that 
    video 
    store 

    Chorus 1
    Oh, 
    be 
    my 
    rest, 
    be 
    my 
    fantasy 

    Oh, 
    be 
    my 
    rest, 
    be 
    my 
    fantasy 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 2
    I'm 
    light 
    as 
    feather 

    I'm 
    bright 
    as 
    the 
    Oregon 
    breeze 

    My 
    black 
    shroud 

    Frightened 
    by 
    my 
    feelings 

    only 
    wanna 
    be 
    re
    lief 

    No, 
    I'm 
    not 
    go-getter 

    The 
    demon 
    had 
    spell 
    on 
    me 

    My 
    black 
    shroud 

    Captain 
    of 
    my 
    feelings 

    The 
    only 
    thing 
    wanna 
    be
    lieve 

    Pre-chorus 2
    When 
    was 
    three, 
    and 
    free 
    to 
    ex
    plore 

    saw 
    her 
    face 
    on 
    the 
    back 
    of 
    the 
    door 

    Chorus 2
    Oh, 
    be 
    my 
    rest, 
    be 
    my 
    fantasy 

    Oh, 
    be 
    my 
    rest, 
    be 
    my 
    fantasy 

    Interlude 2


    Bridge 1
    should 
    have 
    known 
    better 

    Nothing 
    can 
    be 
    changed 

    The 
    past 
    is 
    still 
    the 
    past 

    The 
    bridge 
    to 
    nowhere 

    should 
    have 
    wrote 
    letter 

    (I 
    should 
    have 
    wrote 
    letter) 

    Explaining 
    what 
    feel, 
    that 
    empty 
    feeling 

    Bridge 2
    Don't 
    back 
    down, 
    concentrate 
    on 
    seeing 

    The 
    breakers 
    in 
    the 
    bar, 

    the 
    neighbor's 
    greeting 

    My 
    brother 
    had 
    daughter 

    (my 
    brother 
    had 
    daughter) 

    The 
    beauty 
    that 
    she 
    brings, 
    illumination 

    Bridge 3
    Don't 
    back 
    down, 
    there 
    is 
    nothing 
    left 

    The 
    breakers 
    in 
    the 
    bar, 

    no 
    reason 
    to 
    live 

    I'm 
    fool 
    in 
    the 
    fetter 

    (I'm 
    fool 
    in 
    the 
    fetter) 

    Rose 
    of 
    Aaron's 
    beard, 

    where 
    you 
    can 
    reach 
    me 

    Bridge 4
    Don't 
    back 
    down, 
    nothing 
    can 
    be 
    changed 

    Cantilever 
    bridge, 
    the 
    drunken 
    sailor 

    My 
    brother 
    had 
    daughter 

    (my 
    brother 
    had 
    daughter) 

    The 
    beauty 
    that 
    she 
    brings, 
    illumination 

    (illumination) 
    Illumination

    • 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.
