    Oh, 
    a 
    million marching 
    armies and 

    a million 
    marching men 

    Have 
    won the dark 
    -skinned countries 

    and lost 
    them back 
    again 

    But now 
    the word 
    has gone to 

    every 
    fallen land 

    That 
    this old 
    world 
    is changing hands 

    From 
    the master 
    to the 
    servant, from 

    the 
    own
    er to 
    the slaves 

    Colonial 
    days are 
    buried in a 

    deep 
    and dirty grave 

    It's so 
    easy to 
    see and 

    well to understand 

    That 
    this old 
    world is changing 
    hands 

    Hey, 

    Washington and 

    Jefferson and 

    Patrick 

    Henry 
    too 

    They 
    knew what 
    they were doing 

    when 
    they started 
    something new 

    It 
    was in 
    this giant land 

    of ours 
    that it all 
    began 

    When 
    this 
    old world 
    was changing 
    hand
    s 

    From 
    the master 
    to 
    the servant, 

    from 
    the owner 
    to the slave 

    Colonial days 
    are buried 

    in a deep 
    and dirty 
    grave 

    It's 
    so easy 
    to see 
    and 

    well to 
    understand 

    That 
    this old 
    world is 
    changing hands 

    Hey, 
    when 

    World 

    War 

    II was rolling 
    by, 

    the 
    tide was on 
    its 
    way. 

    Many countries 
    had 
    to listen to 

    the words 
    they 
    had to 
    say. 

    An
    d the word 
    was spread 
    to millions, 

    all 
    of yellow, 
    black, and 
    tan, that 
    this old 
    world 

    was 
    changing hands. 

    From 
    the master 
    to 
    the servant, 
    from 
    the owner 
    to 
    the slaves, 

    colonial 
    days 
    are buried 
    in 

    a deep 
    and dirty 
    grave. 

    It's 
    so easy 
    to 
    see 
    an

    d well 
    to 
    under
    stand 

    That 
    this 
    old 
    world 
    is changing 
    hands 

    Now 

    Africa 
    and 

    Asia 
    and 
    the 

    Carib
    bean 
    shores 

    No 
    longer 
    can 
    be counted 

    as 
    the spoils 
    of 

    the wars 

    They 
    were bought 
    and sold 
    together, 

    now togeth
    er 

    they 
    will 
    stand, 

    cause 
    this 
    old 
    world is 
    changing 
    hand
    s. 

    From 
    the 
    mas
    ter 
    to the 
    servant, 

    from the 
    own
    er to 
    the 
    slave, 

    Colonial 
    days are 
    buried 
    in a 

    deep and

    changing

      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 🙂

      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.
