    • Verse 1
    This 
    cruel 
    old 
    coun
    try 
    has 
    driv
    en 
    me down, 

    teased 
    me and 
    lied. 

    I've 
    only 
    sad 
    stories 
    to tell 

    to 
    this 
    town 

    My dreams 
    have 
    withered 
    and 
    died. 

    Once 
    I 
    was 
    bending 
    the 

    tops 
    of 
    the 
    trees, 

    Kind 
    thought
    s 
    in my 
    head, 

    kind 
    voices 
    to 
    hear. 

    Then 
    I 
    took 
    up with 
    a girl 

    from 
    the West
    . 

    They'd 
    run 
    and hide, 

    they'd 
    run 
    and 
    hide. 

    Count 
    one 
    to ten 
    and 

    she's gone 
    like 
    the rest. 

    My 
    dreams 
    have 
    withered 
    and 
    died. 

    If 
    I 
    was 
    a butter
    fly, 

    lived for 
    a 
    day, 

    I 
    could 
    be 
    free 
    just 
    blow

    ing 
    away. 

    Silver 
    moon 
    sailor 
    and 

    silver 
    moon
    shine 

    On the 
    water 
    so wide, 

    water 
    so wide, 

    Slip from 
    the 
    bed 
    of 
    a good 

    friend 
    of 
    mine 

    My dreams 
    have 
    withered 
    and 
    died. 

    Once 
    I 
    was 
    bend
    ing 
    the 

    tops 
    of 
    the 
    trees 

    Kind 
    thoughts 
    in my 
    head, 

    kind 
    voices 
    to 
    hear. 

    This cruel 
    country 
    has 
    driv
    en 
    me down, 

    teased 
    me 
    and 
    lied. 

    Teased 
    me 
    and 
    lied. 

    I've only 
    sad 
    stories 
    to 
    tell 

    to 
    this town. 

    My dreams 
    have 
    withered 
    and 
    died. [x3]

      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.
