    Verse 1
    saw 
    it 
    again this 
    even
    ing 

    Black sail in 
    a pale yellow 
    sky 

    And just as 
    be
    fore in 
    mo
    ment 

    It was 
    gone where the 
    grey gull
    s fly. 

    Verse 2
    If it 
    hap
    pens again 
    I shall 
    worry 

    That only a 
    strange 
    ship 
    could fly 

    And 
    my sanity 
    scans 
    the 
    horizon 

    In the light of 
    the darkening 
    sky. 

    Verse 3
    That night as 
    walked in 

    my 
    slum
    ber 

    I waded 
    into 
    the sea 
    strand 

    And I 
    swam with the 

    moon and her 
    lover

    Un
    til I 
    lost 
    sight of 
    the 
    land 

    Verse 4
    swam till 
    the 
    night became 
    morn
    ing 

    Black 
    sail 
    in a 
    reddening 
    sky 

    Found 
    my
    self on 
    the 

    deck of 
    rolling ship 

    So 
    far where no 
    grey gull
    s fly 

    Verse 5
    All 
    around me was 
    silence 

    As if mocking 
    my frail 
    human hopes 

    And a 
    question 
    mark hung in the 

    can
    vas 

    For the 
    wind that 
    had 
    died 

    in the 
    ropes 

    Verse 6
    I may 
    have 
    slept 
    for an 
    hour 

    may 
    have slept 
    for a 
    day 

    For I woke 
    in a bed 
    of white 

    linen 

    And the sky 
    was the colour 
    of 
    clay. 


    Verse 7

    At first 
    just 
    a rustle 
    of can

    vas 

    And the gentlest 
    breath 

    on my face 

    But a galloping 
    line of 
    white 

    horses 

    Said that soon 
    we were 
    in 
    for 
    race 

    The gentle sigh 
    turned to 
    Verse 8
    howling 

    And the 
    grey sky 

    she angered 
    to black 

    And my 
    anxious eyes 

    searched the ho
    rizon 

    With 
    the 
    gath
    ering 
    sea at 
    my back 

    Did I see 
    the 
    shade of 
    Verse 9
    sail
    or 

    On the 
    bridge through 
    the 

    wheelhouse 
    pane 

    Held fast 
    to the wheel 

    of the rocking 
    ship 

    As I squin
    ted my 
    eye
    s in 
    the 
    rain 

    Verse 10
    For 
    the 
    ship 
    had turned 
    into 
    the wind 

    Again
    st 
    the storm 
    to 
    brace 

    And un
    derneath 
    the sailor's 
    hat 

    I saw 
    my 
    father
    's face 

    Interlude 1




    If 
    a pray
    Verse 11
    er today 
    is 
    spoken 

    Please 
    of
    fer 
    it for 
    me 

    When 
    the 
    bridge 
    to heav
    en is 
    broken 

    And 
    you're lost 
    on 

    the wild 
    wild 
    sea 

    Lost 
    on 
    the 
    wild 


    wild 
    sea...

    • 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.
