    Verse 1
    And 
    then 
    I rose 

    to 
    the top 
    of 
    the 
    world 

    And 
    saw 
    that I 
    was 
    blessed 

    saw 
    that 
    it was 
    built 
    on 
    the 
    backs 

    of 
    the poor 
    and 
    the 
    oppressed 

    saw 
    this 
    end
    less 
    spin
    ning 

    Of 
    ending 
    up 
    back 
    at 
    the beginning 

    Of 
    headlong 
    races 
    to 
    where 
    we 
    sat 

    But 
    oh, 
    the 
    places 
    we 
    could go 

    if 
    the world 
    was 
    flat 

    And 
    was 
    tired 
    and 
    defeated 

    With 
    nothing 
    turned 
    out 
    as I 
    thought 

    But 
    if 
    always 
    do 
    what 

    I've always 
    done 

    Then I 
    only 
    get 
    what I 
    al
    ways 
    got 

    saw 
    the 
    masses 
    yawning 
    stolen 
    breaths 

    That 
    they 
    might 
    breathe 
    the 
    next 

    Tall 
    drinks, 
    queen 
    ants, 

    and 
    half 
    -mast 
    cigar
    ettes 

    The 
    same 
    lives, 
    the 
    same 
    pain 

    Lay 
    like 
    embers 
    in 
    the 
    rain 

    saw 
    all 
    things 
    invisible 
    that 
    bind 
    me 

    When 
    Lady 
    Luck 
    was 
    smiling 

    It 
    was 
    that the 
    guy 
    behind 
    me 

    Green 
    and brown 
    girls 
    of the 
    sea 

    Take 
    me, 
    but 
    don't 
    ever 
    wake 
    me 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free 

    Why 
    are 
    you 
    living 
    in 
    chains? 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free 

    Why 
    are 
    you 
    living 
    in 
    chains? 

    You're 
    living 
    in 
    chain

    You're 
    living 
    in... 

    And I 
    saw 
    my 
    supposed 
    enemy 

    But 
    I looked 
    exactly 
    like 
    him 

    saw 
    the 
    boat 
    sinking 

    So 
    got 
    out and 
    learned how 
    to 
    swim 

    saw 
    the 
    sorrow 
    of 
    the centuries 

    And 
    saw 
    first smoke 
    from the 
    stack

    saw bullets 
    being 
    buried 

    in our 
    old man's 
    backs 

    saw 
    the poetry 
    of 
    the prophet 

    But 
    they wallpapered 
    over it, 
    they 
    did 

    The 
    same words 
    written years 
    ago 

    on the back 
    of my eyelids 

    saw tax 
    collectors 
    as 

    national protectors 

    Tables 
    be
    ing turned, 

    books being 
    burned 

    And bodies 
    washing 
    in from 
    the sea 

    You free 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free 

    Why 
    are 
    you 
    living 
    in 
    chains? 

    You could 
    change 
    it 
    so 
    bad 

    We're 
    nothing 
    but 
    worm 

    You 
    want 
    to 
    be 
    free 

    Why 
    are you 
    living 
    in 
    chains? 



    You 
    wanna 
    be free, 
    you 
    wanna 
    be free 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free, 

    why 
    are 
    you living 
    in 
    chain
    s? 

    You 
    want 
    to be 
    free, 
    you 
    want 
    to be free 

    While 
    you're 
    living 
    in 
    chains 

    You 
    want 
    to be 
    free, 
    you 
    want 
    to be 
    free 

    You 
    want 
    to be 
    free, 

    while 
    you're 
    living 
    in 
    chains 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free, 
    you 
    wanna 
    be free, 

    you 
    wanna 
    be 
    free, 

    why 
    are you 
    living 
    in 
    shame? 

    You 
    wanna 
    be 
    free, 
    you 
    wanna 
    be free, 

    you 
    wanna

    • 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

      Rose the Black Cat

      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 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      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!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      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.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
