    Verse 1
    The 
    re

    proach 
    in 
    your 
    daughter's 
    most 
    beautiful 
    face 

    Made 
    me 
    wonder 
    just 
    how 
    she 
    could 
    know 

    Of 
    that 
    something 
    that 
    happened 

    between 
    you 
    and 
    me 

    So 
    much 
    more 
    than 
    a 
    long 
    time 
    ago 

    Her 
    Verse 2
    mother, 
    I 
    can 
    see, 
    lives 
    within 
    her 
    still 

    Cause 
    she 
    looked 
    at 
    me 

    with 
    her 
    eyes 

    Though 
    I 
    had 
    only 
    just 
    met 
    her 
    right 
    then 

    I 
    feel 
    that 
    she 
    peeled 
    back 
    my 
    guilty 

    disguise 

    Verse 3

    Did 
    I 
    break 
    the thread, 

    or did 
    you 
    break 
    the 
    thread? 

    Well at 
    this 
    point 
    we 

    could 
    ask 
    who 
    cares 

    As 
    for 
    the 
    promises 
    broken 

    and 
    frayed 

    It's 
    19 years 
    late 
    for 
    repair
    s 

    The 
    Verse 4
    grey 
    pewter 
    vase 
    held 

    the 
    deep 
    red 
    rose, 

    One 
    piece 
    of 
    coral 
    shone 
    white, 

    By the 
    brass 
    candlestick 

    near 
    your 
    red 
    velvet 
    coat, 

    Is 
    everything 
    I 
    can 
    recall 
    of 
    one 
    night 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 5
    Will 
    you 
    please 
    tell 
    me 
    why 
    I 

    re
    member 
    these 
    things 

    After 
    all 
    of 
    this 
    time, 
    I 
    don't 
    know 

    I 
    must 
    have 
    left 
    all 

    those 
    feelings 
    inside 

    Cause 
    that 
    year 
    I 
    had 
    no 
    courage 
    to 
    show 

    Verse 6
    Was 
    I 
    the 
    name 
    you 
    could 

    nev
    er 
    pro
    nounce? 

    Or 
    did 
    I 
    even 
    figure 
    at 
    all? 

    All 
    of 
    this 
    happened 
    before 
    she 
    was 
    born 

    Did 
    I shadow 
    her 
    young 
    pencil 

    Verse 7
    marks 
    on 
    the wall 

    Still 
    I 
    am 
    sure 
    I 
    was 
    only 
    but 
    one 

    Of 
    a 
    number 
    who 
    darkened 
    that 
    door 

    Of 
    your 
    home 
    and 
    your 
    hearth 

    and 
    your 
    family 
    and 
    wife 

    Who'd 
    been 
    darkened 
    so 
    often 
    before 

    Verse 8
    Oh, the 
    red 
    leaf 
    looks 
    to 

    the 
    hard 
    gray 
    stone 

    To each 
    other, 

    they 
    know 
    what 
    they 
    mean 

    Somewhere, 
    their 
    future 
    is 
    still 
    yet 
    to 
    come 

    In 
    ways 
    that 
    are 
    yet 
    as 
    of 
    now 
    unfore
    seen

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
