    Verse 1
    Oh, 
    oh, oh 
    brother 
    totem 
    pole 

    I 
    saw your 
    le
    gends 
    lined 
    up 

    And 
    I never 
    felt more 
    natural 

    Apart, 
    I just came 
    apart 

    Please, 
    please, 
    please 
    sister 
    Socrates 
    Verse 2


    You always 
    answer 
    with 

    a question 

    Show some 
    kindness 
    to 
    a petty 
    thief 

    Forgive, 
    you did 
    forgive 

    Watch 
    the 
    mi
    grants 
    smoke 
    Verse 3

    in the 
    old orange 
    grove 

    And the 
    red 
    rocket 
    blaze 
    over 

    Cape Canaveral 

    You've been 
    a father 
    to me 

    In 
    1960's speak 

    In the 
    comatose 
    joy 
    that we're 
    on TV 

    While 
    the 
    mountain's 
    side was 
    shining 

    Wild 
    color
    s of my 
    destiny 

    Verse 4

    I 
    watched your 
    face 
    age 
    backwards 

    Changing 
    shape 
    in my 
    memory 

    You 
    told me 
    victory's 
    sweet 

    Even 
    deep 
    in the 
    cheap 
    seat

    s 

    Interlude 1


    Hey, 
    hey, 
    hey 
    mother 
    interstate 
    Verse 5

    Can 
    you deliver 
    me from 
    evil 

    Make me 
    honest 
    make me 

    wedding 
    cake 

    Atone, 
    I will 
    atone 

    Wait, 
    wait, 
    wait 
    Verse 6
    mighty 
    outer-space 

    All 
    All that 
    flying 
    saucer 
    terror 

    Made me 
    lazy 
    drinking 
    lemonade 

    A 
    waste, 
    it 
    just 
    went 
    to waste 

    Like the 
    Verse 7
    Freon cold 
    out the 
    hotel 
    door 

    Or 
    the 
    white 
    rocket 
    fade 
    over 

    Cape Canaveral 

    You've 
    been 
    a daughter 
    to me 

    Your 
    buried 
    shoe-box grief 

    grief 

    I felt 
    your 
    poltergeist 
    love 

    like Sa
    vannah 
    heat 

    While 
    the 
    wa
    terfall 
    was 
    pouring 

    Crazy 
    sym
    bols 
    of my 
    destiny 

    I watched 
    your 
    face 
    Verse 8
    die 
    backwards 

    Little 
    baby 
    in my 
    memory 

    You told me 
    victory's 
    sweet 

    Even 
    deep 
    in 
    the cheap 

    seat
    s 

    Verse 9

    And you don't 
    judge 
    me 

    That's 
    not 
    your style 

    But 
    I won't 
    see 
    you 
    for 
    a 

    little while 

    And there's no 
    wor
    ries 

    Whose 
    got time 

    All these 
    changes 
    are go

    ing to 
    fill 
    your 
    mind 

    Like the 
    citrus 
    Verse 10
    glow 
    off 
    the 
    old 
    orange grove 

    Or 
    the 
    red 
    rocket 
    blaze 

    over 
    Cape Canaveral 

    It's 
    been 
    a nightmare 
    to me 

    Some 
    1980's grief 

    Gives 
    me 
    parachute 
    dreams 

    Like 
    old war 
    movies 

    While 
    the 
    universe 
    was drawn 

    Perfect 
    circles 
    form 
    in
    finity 

    I watched 
    the 
    stars 
    Verse 11
    get smaller 

    Tiny 
    diamonds 
    in my 
    memory 

    I know that 
    victory 
    is sweet 

    Even 
    deep 
    in 
    the cheap 
    seat
    s

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      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.
