    Verse 1
    When 
    I 
    heard 

    the sound 
    of thunder 

    On 
    the day 
    that 
    I 
    was 
    born 

    I 
    was 
    blinded 
    by 
    the 
    lighting 

    An' 
    baptised 
    in 
    the storm 

    My father 
    started 
    crying 

    When 
    he saw 
    what 
    he 
    had 
    done 

    But 
    my 
    mother 
    started 
    praying 

    Have 
    mercy 
    on 
    my 
    son 

    He 
    is 
    a 
    child 
    of 
    Babylon 

    Verse 2

    I 
    am 
    a child 
    of 
    Babylon 

    Lord 
    have 
    mer
    cy 
    on 
    a 

    wayward 
    son 

    Nowhere 
    to 
    hide 
    nowhere 
    to 
    run

    I 
    am 
    a child 

    A child 
    of 
    Babylon 

    Verse 3

    When 
    I've 
    fooled 
    around 

    so 
    many 
    times 

    When 
    I've 
    known 
    it 
    ain't 
    been 
    right 

    But 
    I 
    paint 
    it 
    all 
    in 
    colours 

    When 
    it 
    really 
    should 
    be 
    black 
    and 
    white 

    I 
    sail 
    my 
    ship 
    through 
    muddy 
    waters 

    Try 
    to 
    open 
    every 
    door 

    When 
    I saw 
    the seven 
    wonders 

    It 
    left 
    me 
    wanting 
    more 

    Verse 4

    I 
    am 
    a child 
    of 
    Babylon 

    Lord 
    have 
    mer
    cy 
    on 
    a 
    wayward 

    son 

    Nowhere 
    to 
    hide 
    got 
    no 
    place 
    to 
    run 

    I 
    am 
    a child 

    A 
    child 
    of 
    Babylon 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 5
    On 
    my 
    day 
    of 
    judg
    ment 

    I know 
    how 
    it 
    will 
    be 

    I'm 
    prepared 
    to 
    meet 
    my 
    maker 

    With

      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.
