    Verse 1

    Horses 
    are 
    creatures 

    who 
    worship 
    the earth 

    They 
    gallop 
    on 
    feet 
    of ivory 

    Con
    strained 
    by 
    the wonder 

    of 
    dying 
    and 
    birth 

    The 
    horses 
    still 
    run 
    they 
    are 
    free 

    My 
    body 
    is 
    merely 
    the 
    shell 
    of my 
    soul 

    But 
    the flesh 
    must be 
    given 
    its 
    due 

    Like 
    pony 
    that 
    carries 

    its rider 
    back 
    home 

    Like an 
    old 
    friend that's 

    tried 
    and been 
    true 

    Verse 2
    I had 
    a vision 
    of 
    eagles 
    and 
    horses 

    High 
    on 
    ridge in a 

    race 
    with the 
    wind 

    Going 
    higher 
    and 
    higher 

    and 
    faster 
    and 
    faster 

    On 
    eagles 
    and 
    horses 
    I'm 
    fly
    ing 
    again, 


    Verse 3
    Eagles 
    inhabit 
    the 
    heavenly 

    heigths 

    They know 
    neither 
    lim
    it 
    nor 
    bound 

    They're 
    the 
    guardian 
    angels 

    of 
    darkness 
    and 
    light 

    They 
    see all 
    and 
    hear 
    every 
    sound 

    My 
    spirit 
    will 
    never 
    be broken 

    or 
    caught 

    For the soul 
    is a 
    free-fly
    ing 
    thing 

    thing 

    Like 
    an 
    eagle 
    that 
    needs 
    neither 

    comfort 
    nor 
    thought 

    To 
    rise 
    up on 
    glorious 
    wings 

    Verse 4
    I had 
    a vision 
    of 
    eagles 
    and horses 

    High 
    on 
    ridge 
    in a 
    race 
    with the wind 

    Going 
    higher 
    and 
    higher 

    and 
    faster 
    and 
    faster 

    On 
    eagles 
    and 
    horses 
    I'm 
    fly
    ing 
    again, 

    I'm 
    flying 
    again, 
    I'm 
    fly
    ing 
    again 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 5
    My 
    body 
    is 
    merely 
    the 

    shell of 
    my 
    soul 

    But the flesh 
    must be 
    given 
    its 
    due 

    Like 
    pony 
    that carries 
    its 

    master 
    back 
    home 

    Like 
    an 
    old 
    friend that's 

    tried 
    and 
    been true 

    My 
    spirit 
    will 
    never 
    be 
    broken 

    or

    For the soul 
    is a free-fly

    nor

    To 
    rise 
    up on 
    glori
    ous 
    wings 

    I had 
    a vision 
    of 
    Verse 6
    eagles 
    and 
    horses 

    High 
    on

    with the wind

    On 
    eagles 
    and 
    horses 
    I'm 
    fly
    ing 
    again, 

    I'm 
    fly
    ing 
    again, 
    I'm 
    fly
    ing 
    again

    • 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.
