    • Intro 1



    Verse 1
    Toward the 
    tail- 
    end 
    of the 
    age 

    that's almost 
    finished 

    Where the 
    highway 
    starts 
    to crack 

    and nobody 
    fixes 
    it 

    I was 
    wandering 
    through 

    an undeveloped 
    tract 

    Out 
    near the 
    ocean 

    One- 
    hundred 
    acres, 
    we 
    will 
    build 
    to suit 

    See 
    what there 
    is 
    to see 
    be
    fore 

    it's gone 

    Somebody's 
    always 
    just 
    about 

    To 
    put 
    some 
    kind 
    of 
    aw
    ful 

    plan 
    in 
    motion 

    Verse 2

    Eastern 
    red 
    cedars, 
    and the 
    pines 

    And 
    suddenly 
    an elevated 

    stone 
    slab 

    In what must 
    have 
    been a 
    clearing 
    once 

    Try 
    to recognize 
    the signals 

    and 
    the signposts 

    My 
    curiosity 

    Will 
    likely 
    al
    ways 
    get 
    the 
    best 
    of 
    me 

    Verse 3

    It's 
    like 
    that 
    one 
    thing 

    My 
    Dad 
    kept 
    trying 
    to tell 
    me 

    As 
    the twilight 

    Inched 
    its 
    way 
    on 
    up 
    his body 

    Verse 4

    Get 
    out, 
    get 
    out
    , 
    get 
    out
    , 

    get 
    out 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 5

    Well of course 
    I 
    climbed 
    atop 
    the 
    slab 

    and I 
    lay 
    down 
    on 
    it 

    I am a 
    child 

    I had 
    my 
    face 
    toward 
    the sky 

    Lying 
    there 
    in 
    the sun 
    with both 

    my 
    eyes 
    closed 

    Woke 
    up 
    in 
    near 
    darkness 


    What the 
    hell is 
    wrong 

    with me 

    Volunteer 
    pines 
    in their 
    hun
    dreds 
    in 

    the dusk 
    like 
    military 
    tentpoles 

    Verse 6
    Let my 
    eyes 
    adjust 

    Try 
    to read 
    the markings 
    on 
    the slab 

    Weird 
    alphabets 
    I 
    felt 
    sure 
    I hadn't 
    seen, 

    just 
    before 
    I 
    passed 
    out 

    Stars 
    growing 
    brighter 

    Me 
    looking 
    up 

    Like 
    a lobster 
    in a 
    cage 
    down 

    in 
    the depth
    s 

    Beneath 
    the 
    bot
    tom 
    of 
    a glass 
    boat 

    Verse 7

    And 
    I 
    heard 
    a voice 

    From 
    somewhere 
    out 
    beyond 
    the free 
    fall 

    Like 
    a captive 
    sol
    dier 

    He's 
    just trying 
    to warn 
    his brothers 

    Verse 8
    Get 
    out, 
    get 
    out
    , 
    get 
    out
    , 

    Outro 1
    get 
    out

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
