  • Verse 1
    When 
    was 
    child, 

    thought 
    as 
    child 

    My 
    dreams 
    were 
    my 
    kingdom, 
    my 
    shrine 

    thought 
    as 
    a child, 
    and 
    dreamed 
    as 
    child, 

    and 
    the 
    world 
    that 
    lived 
    in 
    was 
    mine. 

    But 
    all 
    that 
    I'd planned, 
    all 
    those 
    castles 
    of 
    sand, 

    disap
    peared, 
    disap
    peared 
    long 
    ago. 

    search 
    but 
    in 
    vain 
    for 
    the joys 
    that 
    remain 

    of 
    the days 
    used 
    to 
    know. 

    For 
    there, 
    while 
    in school, 

    was 
    child, 
    not a 
    fool, 

    child 
    who 
    was 
    wiser 
    than 

    I. 

    For 
    love 
    was 
    her 
    dream, 

    and 
    her 
    love 
    was 
    supreme. 

    And 
    for love 
    such 
    as hers, 

    she would 
    die 

    But 
    today, 
    have 
    learned 

    That 
    my 
    love 
    can 
    be 
    spurned 

    And 
    my dreams 
    can 
    be 
    doomed 

    And 
    defiled 

    And 
    yes, 
    I'm 
    older 
    today 

    An
    I'm 
    sad 
    in 
    way 

    Sad 
    that 
    no 
    longer 
    am 
    child 

    you

    • 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.
