    Verse 1
    The 
    Cathedral 
    in 
    Cologne 

    looks 
    like 
    a spaceship 

    Like 
    the 
    hand 
    of 
    God 
    falling 
    from 
    the sky 

    A 
    thou
    sand 
    stone- 
    carved 

    saints 
    hang 
    like 
    icicles 

    But 
    icicles 
    don't 
    take 
    hundred 

    years 
    to 
    die 

    Verse 2

    And 
    everyone 
    who 
    ever 

    worked 
    on 
    this 
    Cathedral 

    Or 
    even 
    spent 
    a 
    moment 
    walking 
    by 

    Every
    one 
    of 
    us 
    is 
    swept 

    away 
    like 
    breadcrumbs 

    What 
    comfort 
    does 
    it 
    bring, 

    soaring 
    towers 
    left 
    be
    hind 

    Verse 3

    There's 
    a 
    fiberglass castle 

    in 
    Wisconsin 

    Where 
    kids 
    race 
    go- 
    karts 
    around 
    a 
    moat 

    Once 
    we 
    went 
    up 
    there 
    in 
    Decem
    ber 

    When 
    every 
    water 
    slide 
    and 
    fudge 

    shop 
    was 
    closed 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 4
    Hoping 
    to 
    feel 
    love 
    under 
    the 
    icicles 

    All 
    we 
    did 
    was 
    drink 
    in 
    an 
    empty 
    bar 

    But 
    stum
    bling 
    drunk 
    we 
    crawled 

    back 
    to 
    our 
    motel 
    room 

    And 
    I 
    fell 
    against 
    you 
    and 
    felt 

    your 
    beating 
    heart 

    Verse 5

    Snow 
    was 
    slowly 
    falling 

    on 
    the 
    ice 
    machine 

    And 
    the moon 
    shone 
    hazy 

    through 
    the 
    pines 

    But 
    there 
    were 
    lounge 
    chairs 

    thrown 
    into 
    the 
    empty 
    pool 

    And 
    a 
    dog 
    chained 
    to 
    a tree 

    barking 
    at 
    the 
    sky

      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 🙂

      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.
