    Dance 
    to 
    the sun 
    A 
    Verse 1

    kiss 
    to 
    the 
    earth 

    Verse 2
    Embrace 
    a stone 


    Come 
    the 
    small 
    black 
    book 

    Come 
    the 
    brandy 
    cask 

    One 
    strange 
    disease 

    The well 
    worded 
    paper 

    Signed 
    by 
    the drunken 

    Hand
    s 
    of 
    thieves 

    Verse 3
    And 
    suddenly 

    Verse 4
    They 
    were told 
    to 
    leave 


    As 
    the 
    snake 
    uncoiled 
    on 
    a 
    road 

    The 
    length 
    was 
    eighty 
    miles 

    Wagons' weary 
    horses 

    Lead 
    the 
    feverish 
    exiles 

    Barefoot 
    in 
    the 
    early 
    snow 

    On 
    a 
    ridge 

    Where 
    they 
    be
    held 
    their 
    home 

    Coarse 
    and 
    barren 

    Not 
    the 
    haven 

    Promised 
    by 
    the father

    Interlude 1

    Verse 5
    Jaksa 
    chula 
    harjo 

    Jaksa chula harjo 

    Jaksa chula 
    harjo 

    Verse 6
    The 
    red 
    sticks 
    first 
    and 

    The 
    dancing 
    ghosts 
    were 

    Pierced 
    with 
    arms 
    of 
    fire 

    And 
    the 
    weeping 
    widows 

    Left 
    could 
    not 
    avenge 

    So 
    the 
    western 
    star 
    mani
    fest 
    its 
    will 

    Drove 
    them 
    clear 
    into 
    the 

    paci
    fic 
    o 

    Verse 7

    Gone 
    the 
    way 
    of 
    flesh 

    Turned 
    pale 
    and 
    died 

    Verse 8
    By 
    your 
    god's 
    decree 


    For 
    he 
    hated 
    me

    • 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.”
