  • Verse 1
    You 
    so fleet 
    and 
    youthful 
    must 

    have split 
    a thousand 
    apples. 

    Oh 
    I watched 
    you as 
    you steadied 
    first 

    your heart 
    then 
    your breath 

    Venturing 
    out 
    you 
    scanned 
    a thou

    sand 
    blades 
    of grass, 

    And when 
    you 
    drew 
    your 
    bowstring, 

    it was 
    a swift 
    and cordial 
    death. 

    Verse 2
    As 
    you stood 
    in the 
    wil
    derness 

    Did 
    you feel 
    the silence 

    in 
    the stillness? 

    Verse 3

    That was 
    me 
    with you 
    in 
    the 
    forest 

    For you 
    knew 
    the 
    balances 

    The 
    balances 
    before 
    us. 

    was 
    guarding 
    Crystal, 
    Crystal 
    Creek 

    Verse 4

    Oh 
    a tree 
    it's 
    a record, 

    a home 
    of 
    memories, 

    And every 
    bird 
    springs 
    from 
    an old 
    master's 
    can
    vas, 

    full 
    in flight. 

    And 
    the pond 
    I go 
    to 
    sparkles 

    in a 
    vast 
    estuary, 

    An
    d those 
    men 
    saw 
    nothing 
    staring 

    drunken 
    through 
    their 
    sites. 

    Verse 5
    The 
    one 
    who spied 
    me out 

    as goods 
    to 
    plunder, 

    had 
    to show 
    the world 
    that 

    he was 
    not 
    a true 
    hunter. 

    Verse 6
    That was 
    me, 

    When he 
    saw 
    me 
    naked, 

    He was 
    interrupting, 

    Something 
    sacred. 

    was 
    guarding 
    Crystal, 
    Crystal 
    Creek. 

    Interlude 1


    Verse 7
    And 
    the news
    men 
    circled 
    leaving 

    trails 
    of cigarette 
    butts 

    Ma
    chine- 
    like 
    up 
    the hill 

    to Crystal 
    Creek. 

    "James," 
    she said, 

    "who would 
    do 
    this 
    thing 
    I've 
    seen 
    today, 

    I can
    not 
    hold 
    my mic, 
    my 
    hands 
    are shak
    ing, 

    knees 
    are weak." 

    "They found 
    a man 
    and 
    he 

    was wrapped 
    in a 
    deerskin, 

    Riddled 
    through 
    with 
    boxes 
    of his 

    friends' ammunition. 

    Turn 
    the cam
    era 
    off," 
    she said. 

    Verse 8

    That was 
    me. 

    Oh my 
    noble 
    animals, 

    You must 
    act 
    with 
    reverence, 

    With 
    reverence 
    not 
    like 
    cannibals. 

    was 
    guarding 
    Crystal, 
    Crystal 
    Creek

    • 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.
