  • Verse 1
    He 
    fell 
    to 
    his 
    knees 
    and 

    he 
    cried 
    out 
    for mercy 

    Heart-felt 
    confessionals 
    confessionals 

    to 
    an angry 
    mob 

    But vengeance 
    was theirs 
    as they 

    bellowed 
    for justice 

    "Death 
    to 
    the man 
    who has 
    sinned 

    against 
    God." 

    Verse 2

    joined 
    in 
    the chant 
    feeling 

    so 
    high 
    and mighty 

    Pointing 
    the finger 
    from 
    up 
    on my 
    throne 

    'Til I 
    looked 
    in 
    his tears 
    and 

    caught 
    my 
    reflection 

    And I 
    knew 
    that 
    could not 

    cast 
    the first 
    stone

    Verse 3
    Let the 
    gavel 
    fall 
    slowly 

    tho' 
    truth's 
    been 
    revealed 

    Sequester 
    the jury 
    for 

    a moment 
    to feel 

    And in the 
    courts 
    of 
    compassion 

    I hope we 
    can 
    appeal 

    Interlude 1
    To the 
    better 
    angels 
    of 
    our nature, 
    to the 
    better 
    angels 
    of 
    our nature. 




    Verse 4
    walked 
    along 
    on my 
    soft 

    streets 
    of plenty 

    She 
    walked 
    the 
    alleys 
    of 

    anguish 
    and need 

    While 
    clutching 
    my 
    greed 
    I was 

    struck 
    by 
    a vis
    ion 

    But 
    for 
    the grace 
    of God, 

    that 
    could be 
    me. 

    Verse 5
    And we 
    gather 
    in cham

    bers 
    of 
    lofty 
    ideals 

    Still de
    bating 
    the giving 

    when 
    handed 
    the bill 

    But 
    in the 
    congress 
    of kind
    ness 

    hope that 
    we 
    can yield 

    To the 
    better 
    angels 
    of 
    our nature, 

    to the 
    better 
    angels 
    of 
    our nature. 

    Interlude 2

    Angels 
    of mercy, 
    Verse 6
    angels 
    of light 

    Angels 
    of darkness, 
    angels 
    of might 

    Angels 
    with voices 
    that 
    whisper 
    so 
    clear 

    Who 
    do 
    I lean 
    to, 
    who do 
    I hear? 

    Interlude 3



    Verse 7
    We 
    are 
    building 
    our 
    world 

    with a 
    fevered 
    emotion 

    While 
    trying 
    to keep 
    it from 
    coming 
    apart 

    But 
    as we 
    reach 
    for 
    the dream 
    can we 

    still 
    reach 
    within 
    us 

    We won't 
    have 
    the hope 
    if we 
    don't 

    have 
    the heart. 

    Verse 8
    'Cause we've 
    tossed 
    in 
    the gale 

    of 
    moral 
    de
    cline 

    As we 
    drink 
    from 
    the grail 

    of 
    soci
    ety's 
    wine 

    But 
    at hu
    manities 
    table 

    hope we 
    choose 
    to dine 

    With the 
    better 
    angels 
    of 

    our nature. 

    Verse 9
    With the 
    better 
    angels 
    of 
    our 
    nature...

    • 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.
