    • Verse 1
    Look 
    closely 
    at 
    the 
    shadows 

    At 
    the ground 
    beneath 

    the trees 

    The labors 
    of Hercules 

    Verse 2
    Wild 
    grasses 
    on 
    the hills 

    Rippling 
    in the 
    wind 

    Cybele 
    unchained 

    Verse 3

    The 
    songs 
    you 
    sing 
    at 
    Christmas 
    time 

    The 
    stories 
    that 
    you 
    tell 

    Well 
    I 
    knew them 
    well 

    Yes 
    I 
    knew them 
    well 

    Verse 4

    Say 
    your 
    prayers 
    to 
    whomever 

    You 
    call 
    out to in 
    the night 

    Keep 
    the chains 
    tight 


    Make it 
    through this 
    year 

    If 
    it 
    kills 
    you outright 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 5
    The coins 
    they 
    toss 
    at dancers 

    Whirling 
    in 
    the 
    city square 

    Music 
    on the 
    air 

    The 
    places 
    where 
    we 
    met 
    to 
    share 

    Our 
    secrets 
    now and 
    then 

    We will 
    see them 
    again 

    Change 
    will 
    come 
    Verse 6

    Stay 
    warm 
    inside 
    the 
    ripple 

    Of the 
    Panasonic hum 

    It grinds 

    And 
    it roars 

    Headed 
    somewhere 
    bet
    ter 

    If I 
    have to 
    crawl 
    there 
    on 
    all 
    fours 

    Say 
    your 
    prayers 
    to 
    Verse 7
    whomever 

    You 
    call 
    out 
    to 
    in 
    the night 

    Keep 
    the chains 
    tight 

    Make it 
    through this 
    year 

    If it 
    kills 
    us outright

      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.
