    • Verse 1

    The 
    lady comes 
    to the 
    gate 

    dressed in lavender 
    and 
    leather 

    Looking 
    North to 
    the sea 
    she finds 

    the weather 
    fine 

    She hears 
    the 
    steeple bells 

    ringing through the 
    orchard 

    All 
    the way from 
    town 

    She watches 
    seagull
    s fly 

    Silver 
    on the ocean 
    stitching through 

    the waves 

    The edges 
    of the sky 

    Verse 2

    Many people 
    wander up 
    the 
    hills 

    From 
    all around 
    you 

    Mak
    ing up 
    your memories 
    and 

    thinking they 
    have found 
    you 

    They 
    cover you 
    with 
    veils 
    of 
    wonder 

    as if you were a bride 

    Young men holding 
    violets 
    are 
    curious 

    to know if you have 
    cried 

    And tell 
    you why 

    And 
    ask you why 

    Any way you answer 

    Lace 
    around the collars 
    of the blouses 
    Verse 3

    of the ladies 

    Flowers 
    from a Spanish 
    friend 
    of the family 

    The 
    embroid'ry of your life 
    holds 
    you in 

    And 
    keeps you out 
    but you survive 

    Imprisoned 
    in your bones 

    Behind 
    the isinglass 
    windows 
    of 
    your 
    eyes 

    And 
    in the night 
    the iron 
    wheels 
    rolling 
    through the 
    rain 
    Verse 4


    Down the hills 
    through the long 

    grass 
    to 
    the sea 

    And 
    in the dark 
    the 
    hard 

    bells 
    ringing 
    with pain 

    Come 
    away 
    alone 

    Verse 5

    Even now by 
    the gate 
    with you long 

    hair blowing 

    And the colors 
    of the day 
    that 

    lie along 
    your arms 

    You must barter 
    your life 

    to make sure 
    you are living 

    And 
    the crowd that 
    has 
    come 

    You 
    give them the 
    col
    ors 

    And 
    the bells 
    and wind 
    and the dream 

    Will 
    there never 
    be a prince who 
    rides along the 
    sea and the 
    moun
    tains 
    Verse 6


    Scattering 
    the sand 
    and 
    foam 

    into amethyst 
    fountains 

    Rid
    ing up the 
    hills 
    from the 
    beach 

    in the long 
    sum
    mer grass 

    Holding the 
    sun 
    in his hands 
    and shattering 

    the 
    isinglass? 

    Verse 7
    Day and night 
    and day again 
    and 

    people come 
    and go away 
    forever 

    While 
    the shining 
    summer sea 
    dances in the 

    glass of your 
    mirror 

    While you 
    search the waves 
    for love 

    and your visions 
    for a sign 

    The knot of tears 
    around your 
    throat 

    is crystallizing 
    into 
    your 
    design 

    And 
    in the night 
    Verse 8
    the iron 
    wheels 

    rolling 
    through 
    the 
    rain 

    Down 
    the hills 
    through the long 

    grass 
    to the sea 

    And 
    in the dark 
    the hard 

    bell
    s ringing 
    with pain 

    Come 
    away 
    alone 

    Come 
    away 
    alone 

    with me.

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
