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.”

Helpless

like a butterfly

Released from its cocoon
F

She follows the moon beside her bed
G
F
C
G
to the window of her room
F
Em
He has fled to the street below
G
F
C
where the sun is chasing the moon
Am
She did not have time
Em
to change his mind
F
C
and spin him on her loom
Am
Em
For he only came to steal her warmth
F
C
and then leave her maroon
Dm
C
And now he's gone back to his ship
Dm
C
G
of sails after noon
F
Em
Didn't you see the trap you laid?
G
F
C
How could you trust its grin?
F
Em
It was an old tricky plate
Dm
C
F
C
G
and a hole it left you in
F
Em
How can I tie the dawn threads?
G
Dm
Where do I begin?
F
C
Am
Em
Let us walk to the river
F
C
and watch the sunlight swim
Am
Em
In the city they'll hear us talking
F
C
Through walls so thick yet thin
Dm
C
But now he's gone back to his ship
Dm
C
G
Do not be afraid of him

The hour will come

when your wings have dried
G

I'll not leave you to fly

When you forget the sailor lied
Dm
with the words of your

favourite song
F

You'll laugh when you remember
Dm
F

you cried on the pillow he lay on
Am
Em
Then you'll hear me talking,
F
C
with words I've invented for you
Am
Em
Fruit we share will taste sweeter,
F

than your dry lips ever knew
Dm
C
For now the ship has sailed,
Dm
C
G
G
and the sailor with it too

Well-Designed App
Rose the Black Cat
“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 🙂”
Secret weapon
Brad
“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!!!”
Very reliable tuner
theNewPaul
“This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!”
This is the best guitar tuner ever.
Caleb Schafli
“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.”
Great to tune and play
