    Verse 1
    Noises 

    in my 
    head 
    and 
    endless 
    should 
    haves 
    rain 

    On me 
    like 
    a storm, 
    like 
    hurricane 

    Losses 
    piled 
    up like 
    wood 

    stacked 
    stories 
    high 

    Feels 
    like 
    I've been 
    framed, 

    but I've 
    no 
    alibi 

    Used 
    to be 
    Verse 2
    that 
    all I 
    needed 
    was 

    what 
    did
    n't 
    possess 

    Yearning 
    makes 
    you 
    who you 
    end up 
    as, 

    more 
    or less 

    Whatever 
    choice 
    I made 
    that worked 

    out was 
    just 
    lucky 
    guess 

    Just 
    lucky 
    guess 

    Verse 3
    Adventures 
    half 
    discarded 
    and 

    half 
    held 
    on
    to 
    now 

    Like dancing 
    on a 
    ledge 
    to 

    the 
    edge 
    somehow 

    I can 
    still 
    pick 
    out the 
    faces 

    though 
    forget 
    the names 

    And 
    places 
    that 
    are gone, 

    but the 
    urge 
    remains 

    To throw 
    cau
    Verse 4
    tion 
    to 
    the wind 

    or 
    is 
    it to the 
    stars 

    To hold 
    out 
    my 
    open 
    hands 

    despite 
    my 
    empty 
    arms 

    To 
    wear 
    my heart 
    upon 
    my sleeve 
    just 

    like 
    battle 
    scar 

    Verse 5
    These are battle 
    scars 
    There 



    is 

    comfort 
    in a late 
    night 
    kitchen's 
    ra
    dio 

    And in a 
    let
    ter 
    sent, 

    and lists 
    of 
    what 
    you know 

    And when 
    you 
    don't 
    know 
    anything, 

    you 
    make 
    an
    other 
    one 

    It's good 
    to 
    write 
    it down, 

    starting 
    with 
    the sun 

    Verse 6
    And some
    times 
    church 
    bells, 

    trees 
    and seasons 
    marking 
    times 
    gone 
    by 

    Sometimes 
    starling 
    swells 
    and tidal 

    moons 
    and filled 
    up 
    eyes 

    Some
    times 
    everything 
    at once 
    but sometimes, 

    just 
    the 
    sky 

    Some
    times 
    just 
    the sky

    • 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.
