  • Verse 1
    Of 
    the many 
    gifts 
    I've 

    received 
    in 
    my 
    life 

    The 
    finest 
    are the ones 
    money 

    can't 
    buy 

    Not long 
    ago, 

    my father 
    gave 
    such 
    a gift 
    to me 

    When he 
    shared 
    these 
    words 

    that 
    made 
    me cry 

    Verse 2

    Son, the 
    light 
    was worth 
    the 
    candle 

    The 
    warmth 
    was 
    worth 
    the 
    cold 

    The conver
    sation 
    worth 
    the wine 

    And 
    what I've 
    learned 
    has been 

    worth 
    growing 
    old 

    If 
    Verse 3
    leave 
    this world 
    to
    morrow 

    Happily 
    can 
    say 

    The 
    light 
    was 
    worth 
    the 
    candle 

    At the 
    end 
    of 
    the 
    day 

    Verse 4
    Give it 
    all you've 
    got 

    Whatever 
    you 
    do, 
    trust 
    your 
    heart 

    The 
    journey's 
    worth 
    more 

    Much 
    more 
    than the 
    gold 

    Verse 5

    Re
    member 
    when 
    you're 
    reaching 

    Reaching 
    so 
    high 
    for the 
    prize 

    Keep your 
    feet 
    on the 
    ground 

    And 
    hold 
    on 
    to 
    your soul 

    Hold 
    on 
    to 
    your soul 

    Verse 6
    For the 
    light 
    was worth 
    the 
    candle 

    The 
    warmth 
    was worth 
    the cold 

    The 
    con
    ver
    sation 
    worth 
    the wine 

    And what 
    I've 
    learned 
    has been 

    worth 
    growing 
    old 

    Verse 7
    If I 
    leave 
    this world 
    to
    morrow 

    Happily 
    can 
    say 

    The 
    light 
    was 
    worth 
    the 
    candle 

    At the 
    end 
    of 
    the 
    day

      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.
