    In 
    and out 
    of the 
    front 
    door, 

    Ran 
    twelve 
    back-door 
    angels. 

    angels. 

    Their hair 
    was 
    a 
    golden-brown 

    They 
    They 
    didn't 
    see 
    me 

    wink 
    my 
    eye
    . 

    Verse 2
    'Tis 
    said 
    they put 
    we 
    men 
    to sleep 

    With 
    just 
    a 
    whisper, 

    An
    d 
    touch 
    the 
    heads 

    of 
    dying 
    dog
    s 

    And 
    make 
    them 
    linger
    . 

    Verse 3
    They 
    carry 
    their 
    candles 
    high 

    And 
    they 
    light 
    the 
    dark 
    hours. 

    And 
    sweep 
    all 
    the country 
    clean 

    With 
    pressed 
    and scented 
    wild-flowers. 

    They 
    Verse 4






    They 
    grow 
    all 

    their roses 
    red, 

    And paint 
    our 
    skies 
    blue 

    Drop 
    one 
    penny 
    in 
    every 
    second 
    bowl 

    Make 
    half 
    the 
    beggars 
    lose, 

    Verse 5
    Why 
    do the 
    faithful 
    have such 

    a will 

    To believe 
    in 
    something? 

    And 
    call 
    it the name 
    they 
    choose, 

    Having 
    chosen 
    noth
    ing. 

    Interlude 1










    Verse 6
    Think 
    I'll 
    sit 
    down 
    and invent 
    some 
    fool 

    Some 
    Grand 
    Court 
    Jester
    . 

    And 
    next 
    time 
    the 
    die 
    is 
    cast, 

    He'll 
    throw 
    a six 
    or two. 

    Verse 7
    In 
    and 
    out 
    of the back-door 
    ran 

    ran 

    One 
    front-door 
    angel, 

    angel, 

    Her 
    hair 
    was 
    a golden-brown 

    She 
    She smiled 
    and I 
    think 
    she 
    winked 
    her eye.

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
