    Verse 1

    The thin 
    horizon 
    of a plan 
    is 
    almost 
    clear 

    My 
    friends 
    and 
    I have 

    had 
    a tough 
    time 

    Bruising 
    our 
    brains 
    hard 

    up 
    against 
    change 

    All 
    the 
    old dogs 
    and 
    the magi
    cian 

    Now I 
    see 
    we're 
    in the 

    boat 
    in 
    two 
    by 
    twos 

    Only 
    the 
    heart 
    that we 
    have 

    for 
    a tool 
    we 
    could 
    use 

    And 
    the very 
    close 
    quarters 

    are 
    hard 
    to get 
    used 
    to 

    Love 
    weighs 
    the hull 
    down 

    with 
    its 
    weight 

    But the 
    wood 
    is tired 
    and the 

    wood 
    is 
    old 

    And we'll 
    make 
    it fine 

    if the 
    weather 
    holds 

    But 
    if the 
    weather 
    holds 
    we'll have 

    missed 
    the point 

    That's 
    where 
    I need 
    to 
    go 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    No 
    way 
    construction 
    of this 
    tricky 
    plan 

    Was built 
    by 
    other 
    than 
    a greater 
    hand 

    With 
    a love 
    that 
    passes 
    all 

    out 
    understanding 

    Watching 
    closely 
    over 
    the 
    journey 

    Yeah 
    but 
    what 
    it takes 
    to cross 

    the great 
    divide 

    Seems 
    more 
    than 
    all 
    the cour
    age 

    I can 
    muster 
    up 
    inside 

    Although 
    we 
    get 
    to have 
    some 
    answers 

    when we 
    reach 
    the 
    other 
    side 

    The 
    prize 
    is 
    always 
    worth 

    the rocky 
    ride 

    But the 
    wood 
    is tired 
    and 
    the wood 
    is 
    old 

    And 
    we'll 
    make 
    it fine 
    if the weather 
    holds 

    But 
    if the 
    weather 
    holds 
    we'll have 

    missed 
    the point 

    That's 
    where 
    I 
    need 
    to 
    go 


    Verse 3
    Sometimes 
    I 
    ask 
    to sneak 
    a 
    closer 
    look 

    Skip 
    to 
    the final 
    chapter 
    of 
    the book 

    And 
    then 
    maybe 
    steer 
    us 
    clear 

    from some 
    of the pain 
    it 
    took 

    To get 
    us 
    where we 
    are 
    this 
    far 
    yeah 

    But the 
    question 
    drowns 

    in 
    it's fu
    til
    ity 

    And 
    even 
    I 
    have 
    got 
    to laugh 
    at 
    me 

    No 
    one gets 
    to miss 
    the 

    storm 
    of what 
    will 
    be 

    Just 
    holding 
    on 
    for 
    the ride 

    The wood 
    is tired 
    and the 

    wood is 
    old 

    We'll 
    make 
    it fine 
    if 
    the 

    weather 
    holds 

    But if the 
    weather 
    holds 
    we'll 

    have missed 
    the point 

    That's 
    where 
    I 
    need 
    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

      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 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.

      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.
