    The way 
    things 
    used 
    to be, 

    well

    more 

    Close 
    your 
    eye
    s, 

    open 
    up 
    your 
    door 

    Well 
    I'm 
    not 
    tired, 

    I'm 
    coming 
    alive 

    But

    Interlude 1


    Verse 2
    These 

    things 
    don't 
    matter 
    now 

    We 
    can 
    leave 
    it 
    all 
    behind 

    That's 
    all 
    depending 
    on

    your 
    mind 

    Verse 3
    The crucifix 
    still 
    hun
    g 

    up 
    by 
    the door 

    But Jesus 
    doesn't 
    come 

    here 
    anymore 

    Those 
    memories 
    still 
    hanging 

    on 
    the 
    wall 

    But people 
    there 
    don't 

    look 
    like 
    us 
    at 
    all 

    Verse 4

    Don't

    used 
    to 
    be 

    Verse 5

    I 
    rise 
    you 
    to 
    the top 

    Then 
    we walk

    The universe 
    is 
    smal

    ler 
    than 
    you think 

    So 
    many 
    years 
    spent 
    blind 
    and 

    then 
    you 
    blink 

    I promise 
    you 
    an 
    end 
    to 
    suffering 

    If 
    you 
    could 
    be 
    my 
    queen, 

    I'll 
    be 
    your 
    king

    things 
    used

    • 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.”
