    • Verse 1
    Strawbs - The
    Flower And 

    The Young Man 

    While sea
    sons 
    change 

    in 
    timely 
    way 

    The 
    salt 
    sea 
    ever 
    flows 

    Where 
    open 
    moors 
    lie 
    cold 
    and 
    bleak 

    A 
    single 
    flower 
    grows. 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 2
    Though 
    winter 
    snows 
    fall 
    deep 
    and 
    long 

    The 
    flower 
    grows 
    the 
    while 

    The 
    weary 
    traveller 
    passing 
    by 

    Feels 
    warmer 
    for 
    her 
    smile. 

    Interlude 2


    Sun
    shine 
    Verse 3
    and 
    the 
    tender 
    flower 

    Both 
    melt 
    the 
    young 
    man's 
    heart 

    But he 
    who 
    lingers 
    waits 
    his 
    turn 

    Must 
    learn 
    to 
    play 
    his 
    part. 

    Verse 4

    Through 
    summer 
    days 
    of 
    warmth 
    and 
    love 

    The 
    young 
    man 
    tends 
    his 
    flower 

    But 
    blinded 
    by 
    their 
    colours 
    bright 

    Heeds 
    not 
    the 
    passing 
    hour. 

    Interlude 3

    Verse 5
    The 
    autumn 
    trees 
    once 
    clothed 
    with 
    gold 

    Now 
    frayed 
    and sadly 
    worn 

    The 
    flower 
    bids 
    a 
    chill 
    farewell 

    The 
    young 
    man's 
    heart 
    is 
    torn. 

    Verse 6
    While 
    sea
    sons 
    change 
    in 
    timely 
    way 

    The 
    salt 
    sea 
    ever 
    flows 

    Where 
    open 
    moors 
    lie 
    cold 
    and 
    bleak 

    A 
    single 
    flower 
    grows.

      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

      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.
