    Verse 1
    Cain 
    slew 
    Abel 
    Seth 
    knew 
    not why 

    For if 
    the children 
    of Israel 

    were 
    to multiply 

    Why must 
    any 
    of the 
    children 
    die? 

    So he 
    asked 
    the 
    Lord 

    And the 
    Lord 
    said: 

    Man 
    means 
    Verse 2
    nothing 
    he 

    means 
    less 
    to me 

    Than 
    the lowli
    est cactus 
    flower 

    Or the 
    humblest 
    Yucca 
    tree 

    He chases 
    round 
    this desert 

    Cause he thinks 
    that's 

    where 
    I'll 
    be 

    That's 
    why 
    I love 
    mankind 

    Verse 3

    recoil 
    in 
    horror 
    fro 
    the foul

    ness 
    of thee 

    From 
    the squal
    or 
    and the 

    filth 
    and 
    the misery 

    How 
    we 
    laugh 
    up 
    here in 
    heaven 

    at the prayers 
    you 
    offer 
    me 

    That's 
    why 
    love 
    mankind 

    Verse 4
    The 
    Christians 
    and the Jews 
    were 

    having 
    jamboree 

    The Buddhists 
    and 
    the Hindus 

    joined 
    on satellite 
    TV 

    They 
    picked 
    their four 
    greatest 

    priests 

    And they began 
    to speak 

    They said, 
    "Lord, 

    a plague 
    is on 
    the world 

    Lord, 
    no man 
    is free 

    The temples 
    that we 
    built 
    to you 

    Have tumbled 
    into 
    the sea 

    Lord, 
    if 
    you won't 
    take 
    care 
    of us 

    Won't 
    you 
    please, 
    please 
    let us 
    be?" 

    And the 
    Lord 
    said 

    And the Lord 
    said 

    Verse 5

    burn 
    down 
    your cit
    ies-how 
    blind 

    blind 
    you 
    must 
    be 

    I take 
    from 
    you your 
    children 
    and 

    you say 
    how 
    blessed 
    are 
    we 

    You all 
    must 
    be 
    crazy 
    to 
    put 

    your 
    faith 
    in 
    me 

    That's 
    why 
    I love 
    mankind 

    You 
    really 
    need 
    me 

    That's 
    why 
    I love 
    mankind

    • 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.
