    Verse 1
    Well, 
    take 
    an 
    eye 
    for 
    an 
    eye 

    A tooth 
    for 
    a tooth 

    Just 
    like 
    they say 
    in 
    the Bible 

    Well, 
    never 
    leave 
    a trace 
    or forget 
    a face 

    Of 
    any 
    man 
    at 
    the 
    table 

    Any 
    man 
    at 
    the 
    table 

    When 
    the moon 
    is 
    a cold 

    chiseled 
    dag
    ger 

    And 
    it's 
    sharp 
    enough 
    to 

    draw 
    blood 
    from 
    stone 

    He 
    rides 
    through 
    your 
    dreams 

    on 
    coach 
    and 
    horses 

    And 
    the 
    fenceposts in 
    the 

    moonlight 
    look 
    like 
    bones 

    Verse 2
    Well 
    they've 
    stopped 
    trying 
    to hold 
    him 

    With 
    mortar, 
    stone 
    and 
    chain 

    He 
    broke 
    out 
    of 
    every 
    pris
    on 

    When 
    the 
    boots 
    mount 
    the 
    staircase 

    And 
    the door 
    is 
    flung 
    back 
    open 

    He's 
    not 
    there 
    for 
    he 
    has 
    risen 

    He's 
    not 
    there 
    for 
    he 
    has 
    risen 

    Verse 3
    Some 
    say 
    he once 
    killed 
    a man 

    with 
    gui
    tar 
    string 

    He's 
    been 
    seen 
    at 

    the 
    table 
    with 
    kings 

    Well, 
    he 
    once 
    saved 
    a baby 

    from 
    drown
    ing 

    There 
    are 
    those 
    who 
    say 
    beneath 
    his 

    coat 
    there 
    are wings 

    Well, some 
    say 
    they 
    fear 
    him 

    Interlude 1





    Verse 4
    Well, 
    some 
    say 
    they 
    fear 
    him 

    Others 
    admire 
    him 

    Be
    cause 
    he 
    steals 
    his 
    promise 

    But 
    one 
    look 
    in 
    his 
    eye 

    And 
    every
    one 
    denies 

    Ever 
    having 
    met 
    him 

    Ever 
    having 
    met 
    him 

    Verse 5
    He 
    can 
    turn 
    himself 
    into 
    a stranger 

    Well, 
    they 
    broke 
    a lot 
    of 
    canes 
    on 
    his 
    hide 

    He 
    was 
    born 
    away 
    in 
    cornfield 

    A fever 
    beats 
    in 
    his 
    head 

    just 
    like 
    drum 
    inside 

    Verse 6
    Some 
    say 
    they 
    fear 
    him 

    Others 
    admire 
    him 

    Because 
    he 
    steals 
    his 
    promise 

    But 
    one 
    look 
    in his 
    eye 

    Everyone 
    denies 

    Ever 
    having 
    met 
    him 

    Ever 
    having 
    met 
    him 

    Ever 
    having 
    met 
    him 

    Ever 
    hav
    ing 
    met 
    him 

    Ever 
    having 
    met 
    him 

    Ever 
    having 
    met 
    him

    • 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.
