    • Verse 1
    Long 
    ago 
    and 
    far 
    away 

    In a land 
    no 
    map 
    can 
    find 

    There lived 
    in 
    long 
    forgotten 
    days 

    A 
    boy 
    who 
    nev
    er 
    cried 

    He 
    was 
    his 
    mother's 
    only 
    child 

    So 
    she 
    never 
    wondered 
    why 

    Un
    til 
    the 
    news 
    spread 
    far 
    and 
    wide 

    Of 
    a 
    boy 
    who 
    never 
    cried 

    Verse 2

    From 
    fabled 
    land
    s the 
    pil

    grim
    s 
    came 

    To behold 
    the silent 
    child 

    In 
    ancient 
    tones 
    they 
    sang 
    his 
    name 

    Over 
    every 
    lonely 
    mile 

    There were 
    those 
    who 
    came 

    in 
    rev
    erence 

    There were 
    those 
    who 
    stood 
    out
    side 

    And 
    whispered 
    low 
    in 
    quat
    rains 
    dim 

    Of a 
    boy 
    who 
    never 
    cried 


    Verse 3
    Days 
    grew 
    long 
    and 
    short 
    until 

    The seasons 
    turned 
    to 
    years 

    The child 
    grew 
    strong 
    and 
    fairer 
    still 

    With 
    a face 
    unstained 
    by 
    tears 

    And 
    every 
    maid 
    and 
    lady 
    fair 

    Held 
    her breath 
    when 
    he 
    passed 
    by 

    For their 
    mothers 
    bid 
    them 

    all 
    beware 

    Of a 
    man 
    who 
    never 
    cries 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 4
    He 
    lived 
    alone 
    for 
    all 
    his 
    years 

    And then 
    on 
    the 
    day 
    he 
    died 

    He shed 
    a single 
    pre
    cious 
    tear 

    for 
    a boy 
    who 
    never 
    cried

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
