    Verse 1
    Every
    where 
    I 
    see 

    the signs 
    pointing 
    one 
    direction 

    No 
    more 
    twists 
    or crooked 
    turn

    s 
    leaving 
    room 
    for 
    doubt 

    Where 
    I 
    used 
    to take 
    the 
    time 

    for quiet 
    and 
    reflec
    tion 

    Now 
    I 
    only 
    hear 
    the 
    noise 
    of 

    what 
    I 
    am 
    without 

    Verse 2
    I see 
    them 
    walking 
    hand 
    in 
    hand 

    and 
    my 
    eyes 
    just 
    want 
    to 
    linger 

    On 
    those 
    golden 
    wedding 
    bands 

    wrapped 
    around 
    their 
    fingers 

    By 
    the time 
    I turn 
    away 
    I feel 
    it 
    once 
    again 

    I'm 
    back 
    in 
    this 
    familiar 
    place, 

    outside 
    looking 
    in 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 3
    Baby, 
    all 
    the tears 
    between 
    us 

    couldn't 
    fill 
    the spaces 

    And 
    all 
    the 
    words 
    we grasped 

    at 
    they 
    just 
    fell 
    away 

    I 
    kept 
    waiting 
    on 
    for
    giveness 

    to 
    fix 
    the 
    broken 
    places 

    But 
    nothing 
    even 
    like 
    it 

    ever 
    came 
    my 
    way 

    Verse 4
    And 
    to
    night 
    I 
    drove 
    around 
    and 

    the street 
    came 
    up 
    before 
    me 

    I took 
    a turn 
    and 
    then 
    I 
    found 
    this 
    old 

    house 
    coming 
    toward 
    me 

    I heard 
    the sound 
    a 
    heart 
    must 
    make 

    when 
    a memory's 
    caving 
    in 

    Oh, 
    baby, 
    what 
    a hungry 
    place, 

    outside 
    looking 
    in 

    Interlude 2


    Verse 5
    It's 
    the 
    hardest 
    kind 
    of 

    need 
    that 
    never 
    knows 
    a 
    reason 

    Are 
    we such 
    a 
    lonely 
    breed 
    or just 

    born 
    in a 
    lonely 
    season? 

    Baby, 
    it's 
    all 
    in 
    the 
    eyes; 
    it's 

    where 
    the 
    reckoning 
    begins 

    It's 
    where 
    we 
    linger 
    like 
    a 
    sigh; it's 

    where 
    we long 
    to 
    be 
    pulled 
    in 

    It's 
    where 
    we 
    learn 
    to say 
    goodbye 

    without 
    saying 
    anything 

    Just standing 
    on 
    the borderlines, 
    out
    side 
    look
    ing in

      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.
