Verse 1

G

Pa
C

D
G

arrives in the city

of the closed doors,

Greeted by miners from Asturias.

His limousine streaks past giant

shiny moneyboxes,

Huddled together for warmth.
C

He is deposited in his inner chamber.
Interlude 1
C

Verse 2
G

Later, Pa meets the bear,

impersonates a tree

To confuse the hell's gates

dogs' sense of smell,

And rests for chess with no- one.
C

Then (amongst the closed

doors) he shrinks,

Is dwarfed by rabbits, expands again

To invade the destiny of fourteen

mysterious others,

Strangely clad,
G

captured by a camera,

Carefully arranged,
D
G

with a space for his image.
C
G

A plot hatched by fate.
Verse 3

C

Pa looks for diversion in the written word,


Meanwhile, the mundane world

seeks solace in illusion.

An imprisoned rainbow gives

shelter to the homeless.

A painted machine registers
G

the weight of mystery,

And for background interest

a kilometre of women

Queue to kiss a wooden foot, patiently.

The Queen had been.
C

But no information,

in the city of the closed doors,

On Christian Spain.
G

Elsewhere, bare buttocks wait their turn.

In vain. No guides available. All

busy in the Prado,
D

Followed by shuffling feet. Fas
G

cinated. Perhaps.
Verse 4
C

Outside again in the mundane world,

In the city of the closed doors,

Living men impersonate sleeping saints,

On sundry raised surfaces,

(like benches).
D
G

Art objects seat

beadless (beneath coats).

Performance artists simulate

poverty and beg.

A day's begging pays the entrance fee

To the Cinema of Terror. A
C

golden gas mask

Throw the torturers off the trail, amongst

The grazed walls of the city

of the closed doors.
Verse 5

G

Pa escapes,
D
G

Samples the delights of raw fish,

good wine,

Closes the door of his inner chamber,

Closes the door of his inner chamber,

and sleeps.

  • 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

    Rose the Black Cat

    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 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    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!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    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.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
