  • Verse 1
    The 


    dog's 
    chasing 
    buzzards' 

    Shadows 
    across 
    the deck. 

    Carving 
    circles 
    in 
    the sky 
    with 

    Bibs 
    tied 
    around 
    their neck. 

    Verse 2
    And the 
    lake 
    was 
    once 
    a desert 


    Where the houseboat 
    ran 

    aground. 

    A bright 
    florescent jet 
    ski 
    had 
    to 

    Tow 
    us 
    back 
    to town. 

    A bright 
    florescent jet 
    ski 
    had 
    to 

    Interlude 1
    Tow 
    us 
    back 
    to town. 



    Verse 3
    Startled 
    by 
    the paper 

    And its 
    unfamiliar 
    slang. 

    It said 
    the local 
    beauty 
    pageant 
    winner 

    Had 
    been 
    born 
    a man. 

    Verse 4
    They chased 
    her 
    through 

    the wheat 
    field. 

    They 
    stripped 
    her 
    of 
    her 
    crown. 

    Desperate 
    just 
    to get 
    their 
    dusty 

    Seed 
    into 
    the 
    ground. 

    Desperate 
    just 
    to get 
    their 
    dusty 

    Interlude 2
    Seed 
    into 
    the 
    ground. 




    Verse 5
    And you 
    say 
    there's 
    no 

    one 
    in 
    this 
    world 

    No 
    one 
    who's 
    truly 
    free. 

    Every 
    single 
    one 
    of us 

    Kitten 
    up 
    a tree. 

    Verse 6
    Except 
    for maybe 
    surfers 

    And porn 
    stars 
    by 
    degree. 

    Well 
    wonder 
    if 
    she 
    loves 

    her 
    work 
    as 

    As much 
    as you 
    love 
    me. 

    wonder 
    if 
    she loves 
    her 
    work 
    as 

    As much 
    as you 
    love 
    me. 

    Verse 7
    They 
    drained 
    the 
    fluid 
    nightly 

    But 
    by 
    dawn 
    it's 
    there 
    again. 

    The head 
    nurse 
    recommended 

    that 
    you 

    Count 
    backwards 
    from 
    ten. 

    Verse 8
    And those 
    who 
    are 
    the 
    most 
    afraid 

    Say 
    courage 
    is 
    a sin. 

    We 
    are 
    just 
    bracing 
    for 

    the 
    impact 
    by 

    Loosening 
    our 
    limbs. 

    We 
    are 
    just 
    bra
    cing 
    for 

    the 
    impact 
    by 

    Loosening 
    our 
    limbs. 

    Verse 9
    We 
    are...

      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 🙂

      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.
