Verse 1
G
C
G
C

We are alone, one hilltop closer to the sun,
G

and yet perhaps one moment from eternity.

Quickly almost as in prayer our hands meet,
C
G
Em
G

and yet these hands are not our hands, but

prophets join to oracle the end,
C
G

and it's almost here.
F

Sally, if you must believe while I am gone,

C
G

believe in rain and children.
C
F

Name this hillside tomorrow an
C

d meet me here in memory.
F

Take what remnants of

our dreams are left
C

and cherish them for my return.

And last of all,

Sally, for always,
G
Cm

love me.
G

Things end.
C
G

It is the nature of the universe.

Eiffel
C

Towers twist and fracture.

Nor is there
G

a stay of execution for the leaves

at autumn's end.

She cannot think of him as dead,

and so

she thinks of him as summer.

She will not mourn him.

He is living still.
Ab
G

She will not call him
F

dead, nor will she gather small
G

mementos and start labeling them him.
C

For

Jamie was always
G

mourning to her, without its tired grief,
F

its acrid taste, and utter lack of reason.
Am
F

And she has seen the sun again.
G
Ebm

It blinds her, though she hides her eyes.
G

Now it is
F

more as if her flesh were marble,
Ab
F
Ab

animated by a will to die.

She shall not die,
Ab

but will have come to know death better.

Soft blow the sum mer winds, where

  • 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.
