    This 
    is 
    a 
    poem 
    I 
    wrote 
    called 

    Verse 1
    "This 
    road 
    I 
    Know" 

    There's 
    this 
    flash 
    I 
    get 
    often, 

    a 
    fever 
    dream 
    or 
    a 
    vision 
    of 
    sorts 

    Most 
    times 
    late 
    at 
    night 

    And 
    I 
    haven't 
    found 
    out 
    why, 

    but 
    I 
    know 
    exactly 
    why 

    I'm 
    on 
    this 
    road 
    and 
    I 
    hear 
    gravel 

    underneath 
    me 
    and 
    I 
    feel 
    it 
    too 

    And 
    I 
    don't 
    know 
    where 
    I 
    am, 

    but 
    I know 
    exactly 
    where I 
    am 

    It's 
    dark, 
    It's 
    really 
    dark 

    And 
    the 
    car 
    is 
    warm 
    but 
    somehow 
    I 
    can 
    feel 

    how 
    cold 
    the 
    night 
    is 

    I 
    don't 
    know 
    where 
    the 
    road 
    leads 

    but 
    I 
    know 
    exactly 
    where 
    it 
    ends 

    You 
    see 
    I 
    keep 
    driving 

    And 
    all I 
    see for the 
    long
    est 
    while 

    is 
    my 
    headlights, 
    for 
    an 
    eterni
    ty 
    it 
    seems 

    And 
    everything 
    is 
    desolate 
    and 
    emp
    ty 

    and 
    nothing 
    and 
    hope
    less 

    I'm 
    lost 
    but 
    I 
    know 
    where 
    I'm 
    going 

    I'm 
    safe, 
    I'm 
    warm, 
    I'm 
    driving 

    And 
    I see 
    this 
    small 
    light 

    A 
    dim 
    one, 
    growing 
    brighter 
    and 
    bigger 

    and 
    clos
    er 
    and 
    stronger 

    And 
    the 
    closer 
    I 
    get 
    the 
    more I 
    see 

    I 
    make 
    out 
    a 
    house 
    with 
    light 
    strewn 
    a
    cross 
    it, 

    a 
    porch, 
    and 
    cars 

    Some 
    frosted 
    windshields 

    that 
    haven't 
    been 
    touched 
    for 
    hours 

    I 
    hear 
    a 
    song, 
    and 
    it's 
    faint, 

    I 
    can't 
    make 
    out 
    the 
    name 

    but i 
    know 
    every 
    word 

    I 
    feel 
    my 
    feet 
    first, 

    and 
    it's 
    cold 
    and 
    there's 
    crunching, 

    and 
    its 
    the 
    sound 
    of 
    driveways 

    And 
    the 
    wind 
    takes 
    takes 
    my 
    breath 
    with 
    it 

    Then 
    I 
    walk 
    up 
    to this 
    door 
    and 
    knock, 

    even 
    though 
    I feel 
    I 
    don't 
    have 
    to 

    And 
    I 
    don't 
    know where I 
    am 

    but I know 
    ex
    actly 
    where 
    I 
    am 

    And 
    this 
    crack 
    of 
    light 
    widens 

    on 
    this 
    porch 
    underneath 
    me 

    as 
    this 
    door 
    opens 

    And 
    this 
    brown 
    haired 
    girl 

    with the 
    bright
    est 
    smile 

    I 
    don't 
    know who she is 

    but I know 
    her so 
    well 

    And 
    behind 
    her 

    the 
    warmest 
    home 
    I'd 
    ever 
    seen 

    Its 
    orange 
    and 
    comfortable, 
    there's 
    fire 

    and 
    it's 
    bulb 
    lit 

    She 
    says 

    Verse 2
    "Where 
    have 
    you 
    been? 

    I've 
    been 
    waiting 
    for 
    you 
    all 
    night, 

    we've 
    missed 
    you" 

    She 
    says 
    through 
    the 
    kindest 
    smirk 

    I've 
    seen in 
    so 
    long 

    Then 
    she 
    tapers 
    off 
    the 
    sentence 

    with 
    the 
    peaceful 
    sound 
    that 
    a 
    lady 
    makes 

    She 
    grabs 
    me 
    on 
    the 
    forearms 

    and 
    pulls 
    softly 
    into 
    the 
    dining 
    room 

    And 
    there's 
    people 

    and they're 
    hap
    py 
    and 
    content 
    for 
    one 

    I don't know 
    who they are 

    but I 
    know 
    ex
    actly 
    who 
    they 
    are 

    And 
    we're 
    all 
    standing 

    and 
    I'm 
    laughing 
    at 
    a 
    joke 
    I'll never 
    hear 
    again 

    I 
    don't 
    know 
    where 
    I 
    am 

    but 
    I know 
    exactly 
    where 
    I am 

    And 
    then 
    she tucks 
    her head 

    between 
    my 
    collar 
    as 
    a 
    friend 

    Between 
    my 
    collar 
    and my 
    jaw 

    and 
    there's 
    no weight 
    at 
    all 

    And 
    I don't 
    know where 
    I am 

    but 
    there's 
    no 
    weight 
    at 
    all 

    It's 
    laughter 
    and 
    greens 

    and 
    no 
    tomorrow 
    to 
    win 

    And 
    I don't 
    know where 
    I 
    am 

    but I 
    know 
    exactly 
    where 
    I 
    am 

    I 
    don't 
    know 
    where 
    I 
    am 

    but 
    I 
    know 
    exactly 
    where 
    I 
    am

    • 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.”
