    Verse 1
    Holding 
    on, 
    with 
    both 
    eyes, 

    to things 
    that 
    don't 
    exist 

    Peering 
    through 
    the cutting 
    wrist, 

    at 
    grand 
    old 
    mother 
    greedy 

    Rolling 
    out 
    the cotton 
    ship, 

    upon 
    the carpet 
    pillow 

    Throttling 
    children 
    callously, 

    Verse 2
    a 
    messy 
    day 
    with Clancy 


    Gideon 
    lied 
    and 
    Gideon 
    died 

    The 
    force 
    of 
    China 
    felt 

    Gideon 
    smiled 
    as 
    Gideon 
    died 

    The 
    thought 
    of 
    China 
    held. 

    Verse 3
    Rolling 
    out 
    the golden 
    robes 
    and 

    other 
    foreign 
    language 

    Stretching 
    out 
    the verbs 
    and 
    nouns 

    together 
    in 
    the 
    greeting 

    Some 
    that 
    felt 
    the 
    blade 
    often, 

    some 
    deep 
    confused 
    emotion 

    Struck 
    eye 
    first 
    against 
    the 
    wall 

    Verse 4
    of 
    China 
    under 
    fire. 


    Gideon 
    lied 
    and 
    Gideon 
    died 

    The 
    for
    ce 
    of 
    China 
    felt 

    Gideon 
    smiled 
    as 

    Gideon 
    died 

    The 
    thought 
    of 
    China 
    held.

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.
