    • Verse 1
    Say farewell, 
    g'night, Sonny- Jim, 


    In your 
    defenseless, 
    winning 
    smile. 

    What 
    do you hope 
    to win? 

    An
    d 
    bliss 
    face down, 

    defended. 

    Well, now 
    stoned 
    Demon 
    John 

    There's 
    no 
    town 
    the boy 

    cannot 
    belong 

    Verse 2
    Why did 
    you come 
    here? 

    Is 
    it to 
    excav
    ate 
    all your 
    sins? 
    Boil 
    within? 

    Slaughter 
    like the 
    daughter 

    of the 
    devil 
    you send 
    me. 

    I 
    have 
    to deal, 
    you called 
    me 
    here. 

    You 
    couldn't 
    say 
    that 
    you 
    were juiced 

    The 
    night that 
    you were 
    introduced 

    To 
    Demon 
    John 

    Gonna 
    take 
    him with you 

    when you 
    go? 

    Dance 
    down 
    slow. 
    Oh, 

    way 
    down. 

    You 
    cannot 
    escape 
    the bar- 

    side 
    angel 
    dis
    sector 

    You 
    undo 
    you 
    life 
    with too 
    much 
    co
    coon, 


    Who's your pro
    tector? 

    Dark 
    is 
    the city 
    where the 
    white 
    girls 
    walk 
    by, 


    Down 
    below 
    your eyes, 
    just 
    like 
    fire
    flies. 

    You call 
    me 
    here, 

    come 
    on 
    here, 
    follow 
    me dear, 

    Pas
    t cas
    cades 
    of 
    rage 
    and fear. 

    You called 
    me 
    here. 

    You 
    couldn't 
    say 
    that 

    you 
    had 
    been juiced 

    The 
    time 
    that you were 
    introduced 

    to 
    Demon 
    John. 

    Well, you 
    knew 
    you had to 
    want 
    to 
    go 

    , dance 
    down 
    slow. 

    By 
    the light 
    of 
    the sun, 
    murder 
    comes 

    Today 
    or 
    to
    night 

    Better 
    get 
    yourself 
    an
    d 
    transcend 
    it, 

    Or 
    burst 
    of 
    light 

    Blaze 
    stars 
    in
    to 
    me, 

    While 
    the 
    love 
    breaks 
    through 

    here 
    and 
    now. 

    So, 
    murder 
    by 
    the light 

    of the sun
    . 

    Please 
    don't 
    get too 

    close 
    to me. 

    You 
    said 
    you 
    are for 
    real, 

    it's 
    not pretend. 

    All 
    memor
    ies 
    stolen, 

    know 
    this 
    for 
    yourself. 

    How 
    would you 
    like to 
    be 
    the happi

    est 
    man 
    in the 
    world? 

    Behind 
    the 
    weathered 
    field 
    hand
    s, 

    whose 
    blistered 

    Paws 

    Harvest 
    cut, 
    for 
    wedding 
    clothes 

    they'll 
    never 
    wear, 

    Marching 
    down 
    a road 
    that was 
    never 
    there. 

    It 
    takes 
    place 
    on a sunlit 
    face 

    and the back
    bone 
    broken. 

    Please 
    bring 
    us 
    light, 
    Demon 
    John, 

    you 
    Demon 
    John. 

    Take 
    him with 
    you 
    when 
    you 
    go.

    • 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.”
