    Verse 1
    When 
    I 
    met 
    you 
    I 
    was 
    a 
    young 
    man, 

    green 
    and 
    keen 

    You 
    opene
    d 
    up 
    a 
    sophisticated 
    world 

    A 
    decade 
    between 
    us, 
    bud 
    and 
    bloom 

    The 
    years 
    passed 
    and 
    the 

    seasons 
    were 
    un
    furled 

    August 
    was 
    a 
    warm 
    month, 

    the 
    summer 
    fruit 
    your 
    heart 

    By 

    June 
    was 
    pulled 
    towards 

    you 
    a 
    drunken 
    wasp 

    Your 

    Septem
    ber 
    still 
    glowed 
    golden 

    as 
    it 
    firstly 
    fell 
    to 
    earth 

    By 

    July 
    as 
    a 
    jasmine 
    breeze 
    blew 
    soft 

    The 
    calendar 
    relentless, 

    high 
    tides 
    and 
    low 

    For 
    wax 
    to 
    wane, 
    to 
    wax 
    to 
    wane 
    anew 

    The 
    seasons 
    turn, 
    the 
    fields 
    are 
    burned 

    The 
    night's 
    closing 
    in 
    soon 

    All 
    green 
    turns 
    to 
    brown 
    and 
    then 

    to 
    blue 



    Octo
    ber 
    was 
    for 
    harvest, 

    the 
    gathering 
    of 
    fruits 

    For 
    you 

    Au

    a 
    fond 

    remembered 
    song 

    Novem
    ber 
    was 
    a 
    harsh 
    time 

    The 
    stain 
    of 
    early 
    frost 

    The 
    bitter 
    nights 
    grew 
    long

    December

      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.
