  • Verse 1
    Well, 

    the 
    bible 
    tells 
    us 
    about 
    a man 

    Who ruled 
    Babylon 
    and 
    all 
    its 
    land. 

    Around 
    the city, 
    he built 
    a wall 

    And declared 
    that Babylon 

    would 
    never 
    fall. 

    He had 
    concubines 
    and wives, 

    He 
    called 
    his Babylon 
    "Paradise." 

    On his 
    throne 
    he 
    drank 
    and 
    ate, 

    But for 
    Belshazzar 
    it was 
    gettin' 
    late. 

    For 
    he 
    was 
    Verse 2
    weighed 
    in 
    the 

    balance 
    an
    d found 
    wanting, 

    His 
    kingdom 
    was 
    divided, 

    couldn't 
    stand. 

    He 
    was 
    weighed 
    in 
    the balance 

    an
    d found 
    wanting, 

    His 
    houses 
    were 
    built 

    upon 
    the sand. 

    Verse 3

    Well, 
    the 
    people 
    feasted 

    and 
    drank 
    their wine 

    And 
    praised 
    the false 
    gods 
    of 
    his time. 

    All 
    holy 
    things 
    they scorned 

    and mocked, 

    But sud
    denly 
    all 
    their 
    mocking 
    stopped. 

    For 
    on 
    the wall, 

    there 
    appeared 
    a hand, 

    Nothin' 
    else, 
    there 
    was 
    no man. 

    In 
    blood 
    the hand 
    began 
    to write, 


    And Belshazzar 
    couldn't 

    hide 
    his 
    fright. 

    For 
    he 
    was 
    weighed 
    Verse 4
    in 
    the 

    balance 
    an
    d found 
    wanting, 

    His 
    kingdom 
    was 
    divided, 

    couldn't 
    stand. 

    He 
    was 
    weighed 
    in 
    the 
    bal

    ance 
    and found 
    wanting, 

    His 
    houses 
    were 
    built 

    upon 
    the sand. 

    Verse 5

    Well, 
    no one 
    around 
    could 
    un
    derstand 

    What 
    was written 
    by the 

    mystic 
    hand. 

    Belshazzar 
    tried, 
    but 
    couldn't 
    find 

    A man 
    who could 
    give 
    him 
    peace 
    of mind. 

    But 
    Daniel, 
    the 
    prophet, 
    man 
    of God, 

    He saw 
    the 
    writing 
    on the 

    wall 
    in 
    blood. 

    Belshaz
    zar 
    asked 
    him 
    what 
    it said, 

    And 
    Daniel 
    turned 
    to the 
    wall 
    and 
    read: 

    "My 
    friend, 
    you're 
    weighed 
    in 
    the 
    Verse 6

    balance 
    an
    d found 
    wanting, 

    Your 
    kingdom 
    is 
    divided, 

    it can't 
    stand. 

    You're 
    weighed 
    in 
    the 
    balance 

    and 
    found 
    want
    ing, 

    Your 
    house
    are 
    built 
    upon 
    the sand."

    • 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.
