    Strawbs 

    - The Shepherd's Song 

    The 
    heavy 
    air 
    was 
    scented 
    by 

    The dis
    appointed 
    flowers 

    The 
    weatherman had promised 
    them 

    Warm 
    soft 
    sum
    mer 
    showers 

    They 
    bowed 
    their 
    weary 
    heads 

    Resigned 
    to 
    wait 
    a few 
    more 
    hours 

    And 
    we 
    walked 
    together 
    in 
    the 
    half 
    light 

    Down 
    secret 
    paths 

    Climbed 
    wooden 
    fences 

    Till a 
    dancing 
    meadow 

    Envel
    oped 
    us 
    within 
    its 
    grassy 

    Interlude 1
    web. 



    Verse 2
    There 
    was no 
    need 
    for discussion 

    It was 
    surely 
    no 
    disgrace 

    Her 
    soft 
    skin 
    had 
    the texture 

    Of the 
    finest 
    silken 
    lace 

    Waiting 
    moist 
    and 
    trembling 

    It 
    was 
    just 
    the time 
    and 
    place 

    And 
    our 
    woven 
    bodies 
    sang 
    together 

    In 
    harmony 

    With 
    un
    derstanding 

    Till we 
    fell 
    back 
    smil
    ing 

    Re
    joicing 
    in 
    the 
    music 
    we 
    had 

    made. 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 3
    The 
    blood 
    red 
    summer 
    sunset 

    Was a slowly 
    spreading 
    stain 

    That 
    rose 
    behind 
    the bandstand 

    As the 
    shepherd 
    played 
    again 

    We 
    heard 
    his 
    silver 
    trumpet 

    It had 
    blown 
    away 
    the rain 

    And 
    we 
    lay 
    together 
    in 
    the 
    long 
    grass 

    Holding 
    hand

    And 
    making 
    sweet 
    talk 

    Till the 
    smell 
    of 
    woods
    moke 

    Re
    minded 
    us 
    that 
    it 
    was 
    to 
    go.

    • 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

      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

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
