    • Verse 1
    Take 
    your 
    first 
    look 
    around 

    And 
    see 
    the 
    world 
    you're 
    coming 
    into 

    Ah, 
    have 
    a good 
    cry 

    I 
    sympathize 
    with 
    you 

    Verse 2
    Ah, 
    forever 
    gone 
    is 
    your 
    serenity 

    For 
    the 
    fleeing 
    fawn 

    There's 
    no 
    sacred 
    tree 

    They'll 
    try 
    to make 

    Hypocrisy 
    of 
    your 
    heredity 

    Verse 3
    So 
    choose 
    your 
    views 
    most 
    carefully 

    The 
    future's 
    hope 
    is 
    on 

    What 
    you 
    turn 
    out 
    to 
    be

    Child 
    of our 
    times 

    Child 
    of 
    our 
    times 

    Product 
    of 
    our 
    so
    ciety 

    What 
    will 
    you 
    grow 
    up 
    to 
    respect 

    Tell 
    me 
    what 
    will 
    you 

    Grow 
    up 
    to 
    protect 

    In 
    your 
    burning, 
    turning 
    mind 

    You 
    are 
    your 
    own 
    worst 

    enemy 

    Verse 5

    Every 
    minute 
    you're 
    alive 

    You're 
    that 
    much 
    closer 
    to 
    death 

    So 
    try 
    to make 
    the 
    most 
    of 

    Each 
    precious 
    breath 

    Verse 6

    Ah, 
    don't 
    wave 
    banners 

    You 
    don't 
    be
    lieve 
    parasite 

    You'll 
    have 
    to 
    discover 

    Your 
    own 
    wrong 
    and 
    right 

    Just 
    color 
    your 
    perspectives 

    Black 
    and 
    white 

    Verse 7
    They'll 
    label 
    you 
    weird 

    But 
    that's 
    all 
    right 

    They'll 
    thank 
    you 
    in 
    the 
    end 

    After 
    they've 
    seen 
    the 
    light 

    Interlude 1





    Verse 8
    [Chorus] 
    Ah, the 

    heroes 
    of 
    the past 

    Were 
    all 
    good 
    guys 

    But 
    the 
    leaders 
    of the 
    next 
    war 

    No 
    one 
    will 
    memorize 

    Verse 9
    Only 
    the 
    orphan 
    child 

    Will 
    sound 
    the cries 

    Of 
    a mis
    take 
    that 
    could 

    Never 
    be 
    rectified 

    I'm 
    telling 
    you 
    now 

    Cause 
    you 
    can 
    stop 
    it 
    if 
    you 
    try

      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.
