  • Intro 1

    didn't 
    even 
    Verse 1
    know 
    the man 

    didn't 
    know 
    the 
    man 
    himself 

    Even 
    though 
    his 
    music 
    filled 
    my 
    life 

    As 
    it has 
    so 
    many 
    others 

    knew 
    that 
    he had 
    died 
    Verse 2
    that 
    week 

    After 
    fighting 
    death 
    a year 
    or 
    more 

    But 
    had 
    had 
    a rule 
    before 

    That 
    funerals 
    were 
    waste 
    of flowers 

    Verse 3
    But 
    something 
    said 
    had 
    to 
    go 

    To 
    be 
    witness 
    to 
    his 
    gift 
    of 
    love 

    man 
    who 
    never 
    once 

    gave 
    up 
    on 
    life 

    Until 
    death 
    took 
    him 

    in his 
    tracks 

    The people 
    stood 
    Verse 4
    around 
    the church 

    Ten 
    thousand 
    people 
    there 
    they 
    say, 

    or 
    more 

    Black 
    and 
    white, 
    rich 
    and 
    poor 

    Together 
    they 
    were 
    there 
    to say 
    farewell 

    In 
    New 
    York 
    City 
    it 
    had rained 
    Verse 5

    that 
    day 

    The streets 
    were silver 
    and 

    the sky 
    was 
    gray 

    But 
    in 
    the church 
    the 
    music 

    soared 
    and 
    sang 

    And 
    seemed 
    to fill 
    the 
    air 
    with shining 
    sun 

    Verse 6
    The 
    man 
    was 
    hero 

    He played 
    the 
    music 
    of 
    our 
    souls 

    He 
    knew 
    that 
    we all 
    have 
    in 
    us 

    place 
    where 
    beauty 
    always 
    grows 

    Interlude 1


    Out
    side 
    in 
    Verse 7
    the streets 
    again 

    The 
    people 
    wandered 
    through 

    the 
    falling 
    rain 

    They 
    waved 
    their 
    hands 
    and 

    dried 
    their 
    tears 

    And 
    turned 
    to 
    go 

    about 
    their 
    lives 
    again 

    But 
    none 
    of 
    us 
    will 
    Verse 8
    be 
    the same 

    If 
    we 
    hear 
    the things 
    his 
    music 
    says 

    That 
    loving 
    is 
    the gift 
    of 
    life 

    And 
    making 
    music 
    was 
    his 
    way 
    of 
    love 

    Verse 9
    The 
    man 
    was 
    hero 

    He 
    played 
    the 
    music 
    of 
    our 
    souls 

    He 
    knew 
    that 
    we 
    all 
    have 
    in 
    us 

    place 
    where 
    beauty 

    Outro 1
    always 
    grows

    • 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.
