    • Intro 1



    When I 
    was 
    younger 
    she'd 
    come 
    Verse 1

    to me 
    in 
    dream
    s 

    Her face 
    was 
    hidden 
    in 

    the moun
    tain 
    streams 

    Her 
    voice 
    dis
    guised 
    as the 

    sound 
    of the 
    wind 

    The 
    rustling 
    of 
    leaves, 

    she would 
    call 
    from 
    within 

    Wake 
    Verse 2
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 

    wake 
    up, 
    she 
    said 

    Wake 
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 

    wake 
    up 
    dead 


    Verse 3
    So 
    many 
    memor
    ies 
    of 
    those 

    years 
    have 
    passed 

    Beyond 
    the confu
    sion, 

    that 
    thought 
    would 
    last 
    forever 

    The countless 
    veils 
    that 
    I 

    wore 
    like 
    clothes 

    Have 
    been 
    stripped 
    away, 

    now 
    stand 
    here 
    exposed 

    Wake 
    Verse 4
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 

    wake 
    up, 
    she 
    said 

    Wake 
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 

    wake 
    up 
    dead 

    Verse 5

    In the 
    night 
    when 
    the 
    moon 

    casts 
    no 
    shad
    ows 
    at all 

    We 
    sat 
    by 
    the fire 
    as 
    she 
    started 
    to 
    call 

    Out to 
    all 
    who 
    would hear 
    that 

    the death 
    of 
    what's 
    dead 

    Is the 
    birth 
    of 
    what's 
    living 
    and 

    her word
    s 
    filled 
    my 
    head 

    Verse 6
    Wake 
    up, wake 
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 
    she 
    said 

    Wake 
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 

    wake 
    up 
    dead 

    Verse 7

    It's 
    the 
    life 
    that 
    lies 
    sleeping 
    when you 

    think 
    you're 
    awake 

    Forever 
    is 
    real 
    and 
    the 
    rest 
    is 
    just 
    fake 

    And 
    though 
    volumes 
    are 
    written 

    on 
    this 
    sub
    ject 
    alone 

    She 
    used 
    three 
    simple 
    words 

    and she 
    brought 
    it all 
    home 

    Verse 8
    Wake 
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 

    wake 
    up, 
    she 
    said 

    Wake 
    up, wake 
    up, 
    wake 
    up, 

    wake 
    up 
    dead

      Best Tuning App Ever

      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 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.
