  • Verse 1
    I knew 
    someone 
    long 
    ago 

    She wasn't 
    there 
    and 
    then 
    she was 

    That 
    lightning 
    hit 
    the ground 

    without 
    a warning 

    She 
    would 
    laugh, 
    I would 
    laugh 

    Somehow 
    that 
    sound 
    became 
    a day 

    Day 
    turned 
    into 
    night 
    and night 

    to 
    morning 

    Verse 2

    If she 
    ever comes 
    back 

    around 

    For something 
    she 
    forgot 

    Or 
    maybe 
    take 
    me 
    for 
    ride 

    I don't 
    get 
    taken 
    by 

    surprise 
    anymore 

    I don't 
    get 
    taken 
    by surprise 

    anymore 

    Verse 3
    I knew 
    someone 
    long 
    ago 

    Although 
    it 
    feels 
    like 
    yesterday 

    She 
    would 
    look me 
    in 
    the eye 

    and say 
    whatever

    I know 
    this 
    kind of 
    moon 

    It 
    looks too 
    full 
    to come 

    back 
    down 

    I've seen 
    a couple 
    of suns 
    that set 

    forever

    Verse 4

    If she 
    ever comes 
    back 
    around 

    Just 
    to slam 
    an 
    open 
    door 

    Or 
    to 
    lay 
    her 
    hand 
    in 
    mine 

    I don't 
    get 
    taken 

    by surprise 
    anymore 

    I don't 
    get 
    taken 
    by surprise 

    anymore 

    I don't 
    get 
    taken 
    by surprise 

    Verse 5

    I knew 
    someone 
    long 
    ago 

    Whether 
    wanted 
    to 
    or 
    not 

    We never 
    said 
    goodbye 

    that 
    remember 

    She 
    never 
    knew 
    how much 

    she 
    gave 

    How much 
    she 
    may 
    have left 
    behind 

    never 
    knew 
    how much 

    I had 
    to 
    surrender 

    Verse 6
    If 
    she 
    ever comes 

    back 
    around 

    To see 
    if 
    I'm 
    still 
    so 
    old 

    Or 
    just 
    make 
    me 
    feel 
    alive 

    don't 
    get 
    taken 
    by 

    surprise 
    anymore 

    I don't 
    get 
    taken 
    by 

    surprise 
    anymore 

    I don't 
    get 
    taken 
    by 

    surprise 
    anymore 

    Verse 7
    I don't 
    get 
    taken 
    by surprise 

    I don't 
    get taken 
    by 
    sur
    prise 

    I don't 
    get 
    taken 
    by 
    surprise

    • 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.
