  • Verse 1
    Thank 
    you for 

    the 
    promises 
    we make 

    know 
    can't 
    complain 

    I think 
    did 
    all right 

    No failures 
    are in 
    sight 

    Only 
    now 
    and 
    then 

    I'd like 
    to 
    reminis
    ce 

    Do 
    you 
    remember 
    when 

    Verse 2
    Even 
    if 
    we're angels 
    we can't 
    ask 

    To 
    wander 
    through 
    the past 

    The 
    future 
    is our 
    goal 

    The 
    night 
    is 
    black 
    as coal 

    If I 
    could pay 
    the 
    price 

    I'd like 
    to love 
    you 
    once 

    I'd 
    love 
    to love 
    you 
    twice 

    Verse 3
    Thanks 

    We cannot 
    say 
    enough 

    The 
    road 
    is sometimes 
    rough 

    But 
    we can 
    get 
    along 

    The 
    going 
    will 
    get 
    tough 

    But 
    we won't 
    be afraid 

    Of the 
    promises 
    we made 

    Verse 4
    Thank 
    you for 
    the 
    promises 

    you keep

    When 
    I am 
    fast 
    asleep

    To 
    be 
    where 
    we 
    belong 

    Is 
    all 
    that I 
    can 
    ask 

    We can 
    do it 
    in 
    the shade 

    As 
    long 
    as 
    I have 
    you 

    Interlude 1
    And the 
    promises 
    we 
    made 


    Verse 5
    Thank 
    you for 
    the 
    promises 

    we break

    If you 
    made 
    a clean 
    mistake 

    Well 
    that's 
    what 
    love's 
    about 

    No need 
    to 
    stand 
    and shout 

    The 
    truth 
    is 
    in your 
    eye

    The answer 
    lies 
    within 

    No need 
    to 
    criti
    cize 

    Verse 6
    Thanks 

    For the 
    promises 
    at 
    hand 

    The 
    abuse 
    that 
    we must 
    stand 

    Is 
    often 
    heaven 
    sent 

    They 
    may not 
    pay 
    the rent 

    You 
    never 
    can 
    be sure 

    When 
    promises 
    get 
    bent 

    Verse 7
    Thank 
    you for 
    the 
    promises 
    that live 

    This 
    is 
    all 
    that 
    can give 

    Forever 
    in 
    my mind 

    To 
    leave 
    the past 
    behind 

    And seal 
    it 
    with 
    a kiss 

    Forever 
    in 
    my soul 

    Outro 1
    will 
    remember 
    this

    • 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.
