    Verse 1
    Mamma 
    said, 

    lift 
    your 
    head 
    from the 
    sieve 
    of your 
    hands. 

    Mamma 
    said 
    even
    tually 
    this hurt

    ing 
    will 
    en
    d. 

    But the 
    shockwaves on my 

    bones 
    will linger, 

    Verse 2
    Like the 
    ghost 
    of you 
    here 
    in 
    my 
    bed. 

    When 
    I 
    was 
    lost 
    you thought 
    me 

    a beautiful 
    find. 

    Sometimes 
    I think 
    of you 
    sleeping, 

    so sleep 
    for 
    a while. 

    I find 
    my
    self 
    asking 
    who'd do 
    this 
    to love, 


    And the 
    white- 
    shouldered 

    mountains 
    they pointed 
    above. 

    Verse 3
    Lord 
    you 
    just 
    dropped 
    me 
    here 

    by the 
    side 
    of this 
    road. 

    Out 
    here's 
    too cold 
    and 
    I don't 
    want 

    to walk 
    it alone. 

    I've 
    got 
    a bottle 
    of 
    your 
    blood 
    inside 
    me, 

    And 
    on old 
    beggar's 
    prayer 
    on 
    the tip 
    of my 
    tongue. 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 4
    Mamma 
    said, 

    lift 
    your 
    head 
    from the 
    sieve

    • 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.”
