    Verse 1
    Cardinal 
    crashed 
    into 
    my 
    window, 

    I think 
    he might 
    die 

    I'll plan 
    him a 
    funeral, 

    I'll 
    read 
    his last 
    rites 

    'Cause 
    I know 
    what he 
    saw 

    in 
    that re
    flection 
    of 
    light 

    On 
    the glass 
    was 
    a 
    better 
    life 

    Verse 2
    Staring 
    at a 
    hole 
    in 
    your chest 
    that's been 

    dug 
    there 
    for dec
    ades 

    American 
    broken 
    promises 

    Caught between 
    the 

    lies 
    you've 
    been 
    fed 

    And 
    a 
    war 
    with 
    your blood
    stream 

    I should 
    have been 
    there 
    when 
    you 

    needed 
    a friend 

    I was 
    off 
    on 
    my 
    own 
    again 


    Selfish 
    and stupid 

    Verse 3

    So 
    if 
    you 
    call me 
    back 
    or let me 
    in 

    I swear 
    I'll 
    never 
    let 
    you 
    down 
    again 

    I know 
    the 
    devil 
    you've 

    been 
    fighting 
    with 

    I swear 
    I'll 
    never 
    let 
    you 
    down 
    again 


    Verse 4
    I had 
    that 
    nightmare 
    again 

    You're 
    seven 
    and 
    helpless, 

    angry 
    as 
    hell 

    And you 
    balled 
    up 
    your fist
    s but 

    I 
    laughed 
    at your 
    swings 

    And 
    I 
    beat 
    you 
    half-conscious 

    I 
    I 
    know 
    that 
    I 
    failed 
    you, 

    woke 
    up 
    in 
    a sweat 

    I 
    want 
    those 
    years 
    back 

    Verse 5
    So 
    if you 
    call 
    me back 
    or let 
    me in 

    I swear 
    I'll 
    never 
    let 
    you 
    down 
    again 

    I 
    know the 
    devil 
    you've 

    been 
    fighting 
    with 

    I swear 
    I'll 
    never 
    let 
    you 
    down 
    again

    Verse 6
    We're no 
    saviors 
    if 
    we 

    can't 
    save 
    our 
    brother
    s 

    We're 
    no 
    savior
    s if 
    we 

    can't 
    save 
    our 
    broth
    ers

    So

    I know 
    the 
    devil 
    you've 

    been 
    fighting 
    with

    So 
    if you 
    Verse 8
    call 
    me back 
    or let 
    me 
    in 

    I swear 
    I'll 
    never

      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.
