    Verse 1
    By 
    the 
    time 
    was 
    your 
    age, 
    I'd 
    give 
    anything 

    To 
    fall 
    in 
    love 
    truly, 
    was 
    all 
    could 
    think 

    That's 
    when 
    met 
    your 
    mother, 

    the 
    girl 
    of 
    my 
    dreams 

    The 
    most 
    beautiful 
    woman, 
    that 
    I'd 
    ever 
    seen 

    She 
    said, 
    boy 
    can 
    tell 
    you 
    wonderful 
    thing? 

    can't 
    help 
    but 
    notice, 
    you're 
    staring 
    at 
    me 

    know 
    shouldn't 
    say 
    this, 
    but 
    really 
    believe 

    can 
    tell 
    by 
    your 
    eyes 

    that 
    you're 
    in 
    love 
    with 
    me 

    Chorus 1
    Now 
    son, 
    I'm 
    only 
    telling 
    you 
    this 

    Because 
    life, 
    can 
    do 
    terrible 
    things 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 2
    Now 
    most 
    of 
    the 
    time, 

    we'd 
    had 
    too 
    much 
    to 
    drink 

    And 
    we'd 
    laugh 
    at 
    the 
    stars 

    and 
    we'd 
    share 
    everything 

    Too 
    young 
    to 
    notice, 
    and 
    too 
    dumb 
    to 
    care 

    Love 
    was 
    story, 
    that 
    couldn't 
    compare 

    said, 
    girl 
    can 
    tell 
    you 
    wonderful 
    thing? 

    made 
    you 
    present 
    with 
    paper 
    and 
    string 

    Open 
    with 
    care 
    now, 
    I'm 
    asking 
    you, 
    please 

    You 
    know 
    that 
    love 
    you, 
    will 
    you 
    marry 
    me? 

    Chorus 2
    Now 
    son, 
    I'm 
    only 
    telling 
    you 
    this 

    Because 
    life, 
    can 
    do 
    terrible 
    things 

    You'll 
    learn, 
    one 
    day, 
    I'll 
    hope 
    and 
    I'll 
    pray 

    That 
    God, 
    shows 
    you 
    differently 

    Verse 3
    She 
    said, 
    boy 
    can 
    tell 
    you, 
    terrible 
    thing? 

    It 
    seems 
    that 
    I'm 
    sick 
    and 
    I've 
    only 
    got 
    weeks 

    Please, 
    don't 
    be 
    sad 
    now, 
    really 
    believe 

    You 
    were 
    the 
    greatest 

    Interlude 2
    thing 
    that 
    ever 
    happened 
    to 
    me 



    Bridge 1
    Slow, 
    so 
    slow 

    fell 
    to 
    the 
    ground, 
    on 
    my 
    knees 

    Verse 4
    So 
    don't 
    fall 
    in 
    love, 

    there's 
    just 
    too 
    much 
    to 
    lose 

    If 
    you're 
    given 
    the 
    choice, 

    then, 
    I'm 
    begging 
    you, 
    choose 

    To 
    walk 
    away, 
    walk 
    away, 
    don't 
    let 
    her 
    get 
    you 

    can't 
    bear 
    to 
    see 
    the 
    same 
    happen 
    to 
    you 

    Chorus 3
    Now 
    son, 
    I'm 
    only 
    telling 
    you 
    this 

    Because 
    life, 
    can 
    do 
    terrible 
    things

    • 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.
