    Verse 1
    I saw 

    some 
    people 
    starving 

    There was 
    murder, 
    there was 
    rape 

    Their 
    villages 
    were 
    burning 

    They 
    were trying 
    to 
    escape 

    I could
    n't 
    meet 
    their 
    glances 

    was 
    staring 
    at 
    my 
    shoes 

    It 
    was 
    acid, 
    it 
    was 
    tragic 

    It 
    was 
    almost 
    like 
    the 
    blues 

    It 
    was 
    almost 
    like 
    the 
    blues 

    Verse 2

    have 
    to 
    die 
    little 

    Between 
    each 
    murderous 
    thought 

    And 
    when 
    I'm 
    finished 
    thinking 

    have 
    to 
    die 
    a lot 

    There's 
    tor
    ture 
    and 
    there's 
    killing 

    And 
    there's 
    all 
    my 
    bad 
    reviews 

    The 
    war, 
    the children 
    missing 

    Lord, 
    it's 
    almost 
    like 
    the 
    blues 

    It's 
    almost 
    like 
    blues 

    Verse 3

    So 
    let 
    my 
    heart 
    get 
    frozen 

    To 
    keep 
    away 
    the 
    rot 

    My 
    father 
    says 
    I'm 
    chosen 

    My 
    mother 
    says 
    I'm 
    not 

    listened 
    to 
    their 
    story 

    Of 
    the 
    Gypsies 
    and 
    the 
    Jew

    It 
    was 
    good, 
    it 
    wasn't 
    boring 

    It was 
    almost 
    like 
    the 
    blues 

    It 
    was 
    almost 
    like 
    the 
    blues 

    Verse 4

    There 
    is 
    no 
    God 
    in 
    Heaven 

    And 
    there 
    is 
    no 
    Hell 
    below 

    So 
    says 
    the 
    great 
    professor 

    Of 
    all 
    there 
    is 
    to 
    know 

    But 
    I've 
    had 
    the 
    invitation 

    That 
    sinner 
    can't 
    refuse 

    And 
    it's 
    almost 
    like 
    salvation 

    It's 
    almost 
    like 
    the 
    blues 

    It's 

    almost 
    like 

    blues 

    Almost 
    like 
    blues

    • 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.
