    to 
    many, 

    he 
    fought 
    to 
    his 
    grave. 

    Saved 
    family 
    and 
    friends 
    from 

    the 
    hardship 
    and 
    horror, 

    in 
    a 
    land 
    of 
    depression 
    he 

    gave

    of 
    few. 

    To 
    what

    A 
    friend 
    to 
    the 
    locals 
    who 

    dabbled 
    in 
    crime. 

    He'd 
    give 
    you 
    a 
    job 
    and 

    he'd 
    give 
    you 
    his 
    time.

    wasn't 
    a 
    crook, 

    but 
    he 
    couldn't 
    be

    battle 
    call. 

    United

    stand, 
    divided 
    we 
    fall. 

    Together 
    we 
    are 
    what 
    we 
    can't 
    be 
    alone. 

    We

    the 
    boys 
    on

    sure. 

    When 
    they 
    came 
    to 
    this

    he 
    opened 
    the 
    door. 

    He 
    said 
    "Man 
    I'll 
    tell 
    ya, 

    they 
    don't 
    like 
    our 
    kind. 

    Though 
    it starts 
    with 
    a fist 
    it 

    must 
    end 
    with 
    your 
    mind."

      "

      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.

      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 🙂

      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.
