    Verse 1
    Road 
    like 

    the surface 
    of 
    the moon 

    Detroit 
    neighborhood 
    left 
    to 
    ruin 

    Gil 
    at the 
    wheel, 
    showing 
    me the 
    sight 

    Of 
    this 
    crumbling 
    em
    pire 

    Fol
    lowing 
    suit 
    in 
    the 
    Atlantic 
    mirror 

    Under 
    the 
    Byker Bridge, 
    they 
    shiver 

    It's 
    one 
    for me, 
    and 
    one 
    for the 
    dead 

    And 
    one 
    for my 
    crumbling 
    em
    pire 

    Verse 2
    I'm 
    not preaching, 
    I'm 
    just 
    talking 

    don't wear 
    the 
    shoes 
    used 
    to 
    walk 
    in 

    But 
    can't 
    help 
    thinking 

    where 
    they'd 
    take 
    me 

    In 
    this 
    crumbling 
    em
    pire 

    Verse 3
    My 
    old 
    man 
    worked 
    on the 
    rail 
    yard 

    Getting 
    his trade 
    on the 
    electrical 
    board 

    It 
    got 
    privatized, the work 
    degraded 

    In this 
    crumbling 
    em
    pire 

    My 
    mother 
    delivered 
    most the 

    kids 
    in this 
    town 

    My 
    stepdad drove 
    in 

    a tank 
    for the 
    crown 

    They 
    left 
    them homeless, 
    down 
    and 
    out 

    In their 
    crumbling 
    em
    pire 

    Verse 4
    And 
    I'm 
    not preach
    ing, 
    I'm just 
    talking 

    don't wear 
    the 
    shoes 
    used 
    to 
    walk 
    in 

    But 
    can't 
    help 
    thinking 
    where 
    I'd 
    be 

    In this 
    crumbling 
    em
    pire 

    Verse 5
    In this 
    crumbling 
    em
    pire 

    In this 
    crumbling 
    empire 

    In 
    this 
    crum
    bling, 

    in this 
    crumbling 
    empire 

    Verse 6
    Earl 
    was 
    a kid 
    when they 
    threw 
    him 
    out 

    Liv
    ing 
    on the 
    streets 

    down 
    Camden 
    Town 

    Under 
    the 
    arches, 
    strung 
    right 
    out 

    In a 
    crumbling 
    em
    pire 

    Twenty 
    five 
    years 
    on 
    crack 
    and 
    dope 

    Begging 
    to pay 
    for 
    synthetic 
    hope 

    Just 
    an
    other 
    kid 
    failed 

    by 
    these 
    blokes 

    And their 
    crumbling 
    empire 

    Verse 7
    I'm 
    not preach
    ing, 
    I'm just 
    talking 

    I don't 
    wear 
    the shoes 
    used 
    to 
    walk 
    in 

    But I 
    can't 
    help 
    thinking 

    where 
    they'd 
    take 
    me 

    In this 
    crumbling 
    em
    pire 

    Verse 8
    In this 
    crumbling 
    empire 
    In 

    this 
    crumbling 
    em
    pire 

    In this 
    crumbling 
    empire 

    In our 
    crumbling 
    empire 

    In our 
    crumbling 
    empire 

    In 
    our 
    crum
    bling 
    empire 

    In our 
    crumbling 
    empire

    • 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.
