    • Verse 1
    There were 

    traveler
    s in 
    the 
    night 

    The 
    ones 
    who 
    held 
    the 
    light 

    And 
    they 
    whispered, 
    it's 
    all 
    right 

    And 
    the 
    promise 
    came 

    There 
    were 
    those 
    who 
    rode 
    the 
    lane 

    Yeah, 
    the 
    keepers 
    of 
    the 
    wine, 

    it 
    all 
    happens 
    in 
    good 
    time 

    And 
    the 
    promise 
    rang, 

    the 
    day 
    the 
    river 
    sang 

    And 
    the 
    day 
    I 
    first 
    found 
    you, 

    that's 
    when 
    I 
    heard 
    the 
    clues 

    And 
    I 
    knew 
    that 
    it 
    was 
    true 

    when 
    the 
    promise 
    came 

    And 
    we 
    stood 
    beneath 
    the 
    trees 

    where 
    the 
    vision 
    was 
    to 
    be 

    And 
    it 
    was 
    only 
    you 
    and 
    me 
    and 

    the 
    promise 
    came 

    The 
    day 
    the 
    river 
    sang 

    The 
    day 
    the 
    river 
    sang 

    We 
    were 
    blessed, 
    we 
    were 
    bruised 

    We 
    were 
    taken 
    by 
    the 
    news 

    And 
    oh, 
    when 
    the 

    promise 
    came 

    The 
    day 
    the 
    river 
    sang, 

    the 
    day 
    the 
    river 
    sang 

    And 
    the 
    day 
    that 
    the 
    cripple 
    stood 

    by 
    the 
    man 
    who 
    knew 
    he 
    would 

    But 
    no 
    one 
    thought 
    he 
    could 

    and 
    the 
    promise 
    rang 

    And 
    hearts 
    can 
    win 
    the 
    race, 

    just 
    show 
    a 
    little 
    faith 

    Like 

    Mary 
    full 
    of 
    grace 
    in 

    the 
    promised 
    cave 

    The 
    day 
    the 
    river 
    sang 

    The 
    day 
    the 
    river 
    sang 



    And 
    you 
    can 
    almost 
    touch 
    the 
    stars 

    Like 
    the 
    moon 
    in 
    your 
    backyard 

    And 
    we 
    played 
    our 
    old 
    gui

    tars 
    and 
    the 
    promise 
    rang 

    And 
    secrets 
    kep
    t within, 

    like 
    there's 
    no 
    way 
    to 
    win 

    When 
    did 
    love 
    be
    come 
    a 
    sin 

    and 
    the 
    promise 
    came? 

    The 
    day 
    the 
    river 
    sang 

    The 
    day 
    that 
    the 
    river 
    sang, 

    Send 
    me 
    the 
    doctor's 
    niece, 

    Who 
    really 
    ought 
    to 
    bleed, 

    As 
    the 
    junkies 
    live 
    in 
    pain, 

    The 
    day 
    the 
    river 
    sang, 

    The 
    day 
    the 
    river 
    sang, 


    And 
    if 
    we 
    could 
    all 
    agree, 

    Then 
    we 
    should 
    all 
    be 
    free, 

    If 
    we 
    could 
    let 
    it 
    be 
    in 
    the 
    promise, 

    King 

    Today 
    the 
    river 
    sang 

    Today 
    the 
    river 
    sang 

    Today 
    the 
    river 
    sang 

    you

      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.
