  • Verse 1
    King 
    of 
    shadows 

    King 
    of 
    shades 

    Hades 
    was 
    king 
    of 
    the 
    Underworld 

    Oh, 
    it's 
    about 
    me? 

    Go 
    on 

    But 
    he 
    fell 
    in 
    love 

    with 
    beautiful 
    lady 

    Who 
    walked 
    up 
    above 

    In 
    her 
    mother's 
    green 
    field 

    Verse 2
    He 
    fell 
    in 
    love 
    with 
    Persephone 

    Who 
    was 
    gathering 
    flowers 

    in 
    the 
    light 
    of 
    the 
    Sun 

    And 
    know 
    how 
    it 
    was 
    because 

    He 
    was 
    like 
    me 

    man 
    in 
    love 
    with 
    woman

    Where'd 
    you 
    get 
    that 
    melody? 

    La, 
    la, 
    la, 
    la, 
    la, 
    la,

    Let 
    him 
    finish, 
    Hades

    Verse 3
    And 
    you 
    didn't 
    know 
    how 

    And 
    you 
    didn't 
    know 
    why 

    But 
    you 
    knew 
    that 
    you 
    wanted 

    to 
    take 
    her 
    home 

    You 
    saw 
    her 
    alone 
    there, 

    against 
    the 
    sky 

    It 
    was 
    like 
    she 
    was 
    someone 

    you'd 
    always 
    known 

    Verse 4
    It 
    was 
    like 
    you 
    were 
    holding 

    the 
    world 
    when 
    you 
    held 
    her 

    Like 
    yours 
    were 
    the 
    arms 

    that 
    the 
    whole 
    world 
    was 
    in 

    And 
    there 
    were 
    no 
    words 

    for 
    the 
    way 
    that 
    you 
    felt 

    So 
    you 
    opened 
    your 
    mouth 

    and 
    you 
    started 
    to 
    sing

    (la) 

    And 
    what 
    has 
    become 

    of 
    the 
    heart 
    of 
    that 
    man 

    Now 
    that 
    the 
    man 
    is 
    king? 

    What 
    has 
    become 

    of 
    the 
    heart 
    of 
    that 
    man 

    Now 
    that 
    he 
    has 
    everything? 

    Verse 5
    The 
    more 
    he 
    has, 

    the 
    more 
    he 
    holds 

    The 
    greater 
    the 
    weight 

    of 
    the 
    world 
    on 
    his 
    shoul
    ders 

    See 
    how 
    he 
    labors 
    beneath 
    that 
    load 

    Afraid 
    to 
    look 
    up, 

    and 
    afraid 
    to 
    let 
    go 

    So 
    he 
    keeps 
    his 
    head 
    low, 

    he 
    keeps 
    his 
    back 
    bending 

    He's 
    grown 
    so 
    afraid 

    that 
    he'll 
    lose 
    what 
    he 
    owns 

    But 
    what 
    he 
    doesn't 
    know 

    is 
    that 
    what 
    he's 
    defending 

    Is 
    already 
    gone 

    Verse 6
    Where 
    is 
    the 
    treasure 

    in
    side 
    of 
    your 
    chest? 

    Where 
    is 
    your 
    pleasure? 

    Where 
    is 
    your 
    youth? 

    Where 
    is 
    the 
    man 

    with 
    his 
    arms 
    outstretched? 

    To 
    the 
    woman 
    he 
    loves 

    With 
    nothing 
    to 
    lose

    • 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.
