    Verse 1
    Helplessly 
    hoping, 

    her 
    harlequin 
    hovers 
    near
    by 

    Awaiting 
    word 

    Gasping 
    at 
    glimpses 

    of 
    gentle 
    true 
    spirit, 
    he 
    runs 

    Wishing 
    he 
    could 
    fly 

    Only 
    to 
    trip 
    at 
    the 
    sound 
    of 
    good
    bye 

    Verse 2
    Wordlessly 
    watching, 

    he 
    waits 
    by 
    the 
    window 
    and 
    wonders 

    At 
    the 
    empty 
    place 
    in
    side 

    Heartlessly 
    helping 
    him
    self 

    to 
    her 
    bad 
    dreams 
    he 
    worries 

    Did 
    he 
    hear 
    good- 
    bye? 

    Or 
    even 
    hel
    lo? 

    Bridge 1
    They 
    are 
    one 
    person 

    They 
    are 
    two 
    a
    lone 

    They 
    are 
    three 
    to
    gether 

    They 
    are 
    for 
    each 
    other 


    Verse 3
    Stand 
    by 
    the 
    stairway, 

    you'll 
    see 
    something 
    certain 
    to 
    tell 
    you 

    Confusion 
    has 
    its 
    cost 

    Love 
    isn't 
    lying 

    it's 
    loose 
    in 
    lady 
    who 
    lingers 

    Saying 
    she 
    is 
    lost 

    And 
    choking 
    on 
    hel
    lo 

    Bridge 2
    They 
    are 
    one 
    person 

    They 
    are 
    two 
    a
    lone 

    They 
    are 
    three 
    to
    gether 

    They 
    are 
    for 
    each 
    other

      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.
