    Verse 1
    Looking 
    like 
    something 

    from out 
    of space 
    we 
    came 

    Nothing 
    much 
    to look 
    at, 

    but did 
    he complain? 

    He 
    didn't 
    mind 
    us 
    being 
    here 

    to 
    live in 
    peace 
    and grace 

    What we're 
    doing 
    to 
    him now 

    could 
    put us 
    back 
    in space 

    We're 
    thinking 
    like 
    some creatures 

    off the 
    ocean 
    floor 

    Los
    ing 
    sight 
    of what 
    we've 

    really 
    come here 
    for 

    Can 
    I 
    be heard 
    above 
    the sounds 

    of 
    preju
    dice 
    and hate? 

    Take 
    time 
    to 
    look around 

    be
    fore 
    it get
    s too 
    late 

    It's 
    a happy 
    old 
    world 

    Give and 
    take a 
    bit 

    That's 
    what you 
    make 
    of it 

    A 
    happy 
    old 
    world 

    But I'm 
    sorry 
    to be 
    leaving 
    it 

    It's 
    a 
    happy 
    old 
    world 

    Give and 
    take a 
    bit 

    That's 
    what 
    you make 
    of it 

    A 
    happy 
    old 
    world 

    But 
    I guess 
    I still, 
    I still 
    believe 
    in 
    it 

    It's a 
    happy 
    old 
    world 

    Verse 2
    We're 
    tearing 
    up 
    the 
    rivers 

    and 
    a 
    thousand 
    streams 

    And 
    highways, 
    they're 
    in 
    places 
    where 

    they've never 
    been 

    We're 
    building 
    towers 
    in the sky 

    and 
    racing 
    for 
    the sun

    Oh 
    Lord, 
    any 
    eye 
    can 
    see 

    what harm 
    we've 
    done 

    I 
    need 
    some help 
    to 
    get myself 

    out of 
    this maze 

    We can 
    both 
    just 
    say goodbye 

    and 
    go our 
    separate 
    ways 

    My 
    mind's 
    not on 
    this song 
    I sing, 

    my 
    heart's 
    not in 
    the lines 

    Guess 
    I'll go 
    and kill myself, 

    so 
    would you 
    kindly 
    close 
    the 
    blinds 

    Verse 3
    Oh a 
    happy 
    old 
    world 

    Give and 
    take a 
    bit 

    That's 
    what 
    you make 
    of it 

    A 
    happy 
    old 
    world 

    But 
    I'm 
    sorry 
    to be 
    leaving 
    it 

    It's 
    a 
    happy 
    old 
    world 

    Give 
    and take 
    a bit 

    That's 
    what you 
    make 
    of it 

    A 
    happy 
    old 
    world 

    But I 
    guess, 
    guess 
    I still 
    be
    lieve in 
    it 

    It's a 
    happy 
    old 
    world

      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

      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 🙂

      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 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.

      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.
