Verse 1
E

If there is no such thing as time,

you're already there,

And you're controlling

this cycle

You say, "Man, look what we found here,

Einstein,"

Or whoever you're talking to, Tesla

- whoever you're talking to

Problems of the future can be solved by man
A
E

kind because you create them

And you have to believe in the future,

it's what we have to do
Bm

We progress,
E
D

we always progress - we try to

So the Sumerian tablets,

they say the same thing like Genesis said

That there were chariots of fire

that came into the sky

And these beings got out of them, and
F#

they walked like a man

But they had reptilian features

They had snake-like eyes, eyes, a tail,

and, uh, scales, right?

And they were - they were here,

and they made slaves out of the people
Bbm
Bb

And where they landed in is what

the Bible calls the Garden of Eden
C#

They were trying to inbreed with the

people here

The women would die,

the babies would abort

But after two thousand years

they started taking
E

The babies started being born

and living

And they had tails,

they had a few reptilian features
D

They could phase shift from

one dimension to another dimension

And the people who know say it's from the fourth

dimension - the next dimension
F#m
F#

Space is expanding, there are spirits com ing from the center,

right?

We're going counterclockwise

There's supposed to be eight other
Bbm

universes going counterclockwise

And that's called

Superuniverse, you know?
C

And love's always been the message

It's just - circumstances happen,
Em

right?

People freak out, just flat flip out,

you know?
D

Well, that's where Hitler came from,

Hitler came from that way

He was an outspoken, charismatic yeller

And, and all these people said
F#

"Hey, we'll use this guy, hey,

look at all these people listening to this guy"

You know what I mean? And so

that's just what the trip's like, that
Bbm

You know? It still exists, and their bloodline goes back

- back into Sumerian times
C#

You know, they didn't call it reptilian,

they didn't call it that

But they did, because they called him Satan,

they called him the Devil

And it's the same damn trip
E

It's a negative force,

coming in on a positive force

Because it's a third dimension, right?
Em
G

And for it to solidify or to crystallize,

it has to have both elements, right?
Em

And you have to keep it in balance,
E

or it will, it will

One of them will destroy

  • 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.
