    Verse 1
    There's 
    blacks 

    with 
    knives 
    and whites 
    with 
    guns 

    fighting 
    in 
    Howard 
    Beach 

    There's 
    no 
    such 
    thing 
    as 
    human 
    rights 

    when 
    you 
    walk 
    the N.Y. 
    street

    A cop 
    was shot 
    in the 
    head 
    by 

    10 year 
    old 
    kid 
    named 
    Buddah in 

    Central 
    Park 
    last 
    week 

    The 
    fathers 
    are 
    lined 
    up 
    by 

    the coffins 
    by 
    the Statue 
    of 
    Bigotry 

    You 
    better 
    hold 
    on 

    something's 
    happening 
    here 

    You 
    better 
    hold 
    on- 
    - - meet 

    you 
    in Tompkins 
    Square 

    The 
    dopers sent 
    message 
    to 

    the cops 
    last 
    weekend 

    They 
    shot 
    him 
    in 
    the car 
    where he 
    sat 

    And 
    Eleanor 
    Bumpres and 
    Michael 
    Stewart 

    must 
    have 
    appreciated 
    that 

    There's 
    a rampaging 
    rage 
    rising 
    up 

    like 
    plague 
    of 
    bloody 
    vials 

    washing 
    up 
    on 
    the beach 

    It'll take 
    more 
    than 
    the 

    Angels 
    or 
    Iron 
    Mike 
    Tyson 

    to 
    heal 
    this 
    bloody 
    breach 




    junkie 
    ran 
    down 
    lady 

    a pregnant 
    dancer 

    she'll 
    never 
    dance 
    but 
    the 

    baby 
    was 
    saved 

    He shot 
    up 
    some 
    China 
    White 
    and 

    nodded 
    out 
    at 
    the wheel 

    and 
    he 
    doesn't 
    even 

    remember 
    a thing 

    They 
    shot 
    that 
    old 
    lady 

    'cause 
    they 
    thought 
    she 
    was 
    witness 

    to 
    a crime 
    she 
    didn't 
    even see 

    Whose 
    home 
    is 
    the home 
    of 
    the brave 
    by 
    the 

    Statue 
    of 
    Bigotry 


    You got a 
    black 
    .38 and 
    a gravity 
    knife 

    You still 
    have 
    to ride 
    the train 

    There's 
    the smelly 
    essence 

    of N.Y. 
    down 
    there 

    but you 
    ain't 
    no Bernard 
    Goet

    There's 
    no 
    Mafia 
    lawyer 

    to fight 
    in your 
    corner

    for 
    that 
    15 minutes 
    of fame 

    The 
    have and the 
    have 
    nots 

    are bleeding 
    in the 
    tub 

    That's 
    New 
    York's 
    future 
    not 
    mine 

    Oh 
    you better 
    hold 
    on- 
    - -
    something's 
    happening 
    here.

    • 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.
