    Verse 1
    Wake up 

    to 
    the Biddle 
    Street 
    blues 

    Can't 
    shake 
    the news 

    All the way 
    to the big 
    dome 

    They're trying 

    Verse 2
    The 
    intrigues 
    of the 
    new 
    royalty 

    And the be
    lievers 

    In the 
    afterlife 

    Share 
    the same 
    gamblers 
    pages 

    Verse 3
    Cobblestone 
    streets 
    saw 

    3 sover
    eign 
    flags 

    As 
    they raised 
    their glasses 

    to conquest 
    and nation 

    Still 
    pawns 
    playing 
    out 
    the legacy 

    Of long 
    dead 
    industry 
    titans 

    and haters 
    of men 


    Verse 4
    Feeling down 
    to 
    the 
    wire 

    Feeling 
    down 
    to 
    the wire

    Plastic 
    grocery 
    bags 
    fly 
    from trees 

    Proud 
    symbols 
    of a cavalier 
    progress 

    Memories 
    and landscapes 

    in 
    triage 

    Disappearing 
    av

    Verse 6
    permanent 
    changes 

    No

    will have 
    a final

    Everyone 
    knows 
    the 
    jury 
    is 
    guilty 

    Faced 
    with 
    no 
    plan 
    at 
    all 

    Just 
    to trick 
    a smile 
    out of 
    the moment 

    Verse 7
    Feeling 
    down 
    to 
    the wire 

    Feeling 
    down 
    to 
    the wire

      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.
