    Verse 1
    Hold 
    me 
    up 
    high 
    for a 
    while 

    You 
    always said 
    I'd 
    learn 
    to 
    cry, 

    and 
    you 
    were 
    right 

    And I 
    wept 
    through 
    your 

    hold 
    of 
    the 
    night 

    Verse 2
    When you 
    gave 
    me 
    something 

    Then 
    it feels 
    like sum
    mer 

    I 
    keep 
    on run
    nin' 
    back 

    Verse 3
    Sit 
    back 
    and 
    open 
    wide 

    Let me 
    see 
    you're dead 
    inside 

    It's 
    so 
    hard 
    to swim 
    against 
    the tide 

    Verse 4
    I'm 
    back 
    trippin' 
    over 

    cracks 
    in the 
    road 

    Won't 
    you 
    slow 
    me 
    down? 


    Verse 5
    Spirit 
    grows 
    when 
    love 
    goes 
    away 

    And 
    I'm 
    still thinking 
    of 
    a 

    new 
    way 
    to say 

    "I miss 
    you" 

    Interlude 1




    It 
    Verse 6
    wasn't 
    so 
    hard 
    to 
    get 

    You're 
    a 
    figure 
    in 
    the 
    dark, 

    a 
    silhou
    ette 

    And you 
    crept 
    through the 

    hole 
    in my 
    head 

    Verse 7
    You 
    were 
    the feat 
    of the 
    sun, 

    and 
    it seems 
    so 
    funny 

    You 
    keep 
    on com
    in' 
    back 

    Verse 8
    Hold 
    tight 
    and 
    clench 
    your fist
    s 

    'Cause 
    your eyes 
    aren't 
    filled 

    with phantom 
    kiss 

    And just 
    pray 
    to 
    your god 

    that you 
    missed 

    Verse 9
    Rise 
    up, 
    floating 
    over 
    loves 

    That 
    you've 
    left 

    Verse 10
    Spirit 
    grows 
    when 
    love 
    goes 
    away 

    An
    d I'm 
    still 
    thinking 
    of 

    a 
    new 
    way 
    to say 

    That I'm missing 
    you

      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.
