    Verse 1
    Friend
    s I 
    could count 
    on, 

    I could 
    count 
    on one 
    hand 

    With 
    a leftover 
    finger 
    or 
    two 

    I took 
    'em for 
    granted, 

    let 'em 
    all 
    slip 
    away 

    Now 
    where they 
    are I 
    wish 
    I 
    knew 

    They roll 
    by 
    Verse 2
    just 
    like 
    wa
    ter 

    And I 
    guess 
    we never 
    learn 

    Go through 
    life 
    parched 
    and 
    empty 

    Standing 
    knee 
    deep 
    in 
    a 
    river 
    and dying 

    of 
    thirst 

    Verse 3

    Sometimes 
    I 
    remember 

    sweethearts 
    I've 
    known 

    Some 
    I've 
    forgotten 
    I 
    sup
    pose 

    One or 
    two 
    still 
    linger, 
    oh, 

    and 
    I won
    der now 

    Why 
    I 
    ever 
    let 
    them 
    go? 

    Verse 4

    They roll 
    by 
    just like 
    water 

    And 
    I 
    guess 
    we never 
    learn 

    Go through 
    life 
    parched 
    and 
    empty 

    Standing 
    knee 
    deep 
    in 
    a 
    river 
    and dying 

    of 
    thirst 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 5
    So 
    the sidewalk 
    is crowded, 

    the city 
    goes 
    by 

    And 
    I rush 
    through 
    another 
    day 

    And a 
    world 
    full 
    of stranger

    s turn 
    their 
    eyes 
    to 
    me 

    But 
    I just 
    look 
    the 
    other 
    way 

    Verse 6

    They roll 
    by 
    just 
    like 
    water 

    And I 
    guess 
    we never 
    learn 

    Go through 
    life 
    parched 

    an
    d empty 

    Standing 
    knee 
    deep 
    in 
    a 
    river 

    and dying 
    of 
    thirst 

    They roll 
    by 
    Verse 7
    just like 
    water 

    And 
    I 
    guess 
    we never 
    learn 

    Go through 
    life 
    parched 

    and empty 

    Standing 
    knee 
    deep 
    in 
    a 
    river 

    and 
    dying 
    of 
    thirst

      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.
