    Verse 1
    Baby, 
    when 
    met 
    you 

    there 
    was 
    peace 
    unknown 

    set 
    out 
    to 
    get 
    you 
    with 
    fine 
    tooth 
    comb 

    was 
    soft 
    inside 

    There 
    was 
    something 
    going 
    on 

    You 
    do 
    something 
    to 
    me 
    that 
    can't 
    explain 

    Hold 
    me 
    closer 
    and 
    feel 
    no 
    pain 

    Every 
    beat 
    of 
    my 
    heart 

    We 
    got 
    something 
    going 
    on 

    Pre-chorus 1
    Tender 
    love 
    is 
    blind 

    It 
    requires 
    dedication 

    All 
    this 
    love 
    we 
    feel 
    needs 
    no 
    conversation 

    We 
    ride 
    it 
    together, 
    ah 
    ha 

    Making 
    love 
    with 
    each 
    other, 
    ah 
    ha 

    Chorus 1
    Islands 
    in 
    the 
    stream 

    That 
    is 
    what 
    we 
    are 

    No 
    one 
    in 
    between 

    How 
    can 
    we 
    be 
    wrong 

    Sail 
    away 
    with 
    me 

    To 
    an
    oth
    er 
    world 

    And 
    we 
    re
    ly 
    on 
    each 
    other, 
    ah 
    ha 

    From 
    one 
    lo
    ver 
    to 
    another, 
    ah 
    ha 

    Verse 2
    can't 
    live 
    without 
    you 
    if 
    the 
    love 
    was 
    gone 

    Everything 
    is 
    nothing 
    if 
    you 
    got 
    no 
    one 

    And 
    you 
    did 
    walk 
    in 
    the 
    night 

    Slowly 
    losing 
    sight 
    of 
    the 
    real 
    thing 

    But 
    that 
    won't 
    happen 
    to 
    us 

    and 
    we 
    got 
    no 
    doubt 

    Too 
    deep 
    in 
    love 
    and 
    we 
    got 
    no 
    way 
    out 

    And 
    the 
    message 
    is 
    clear 

    This 
    could 
    be 
    the 
    year 
    for 
    the 
    real 
    thing 

    Pre-chorus 2
    No 
    more 
    will 
    you 
    cry 

    Baby, 
    will 
    hurt 
    you 
    never 

    We 
    start 
    and 
    end 
    as 
    one 

    In 
    love 
    forever 

    We 
    can 
    ride 
    it 
    together, 
    ah 
    ha 

    Making 
    love 
    with

      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 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.
