Verse 1
G
F#m
Gm

Spider: I think I can explain about about how the

pigs' music works
G

Monica: Well, this should

be interesting
F#m

Spider: Remember that they make
G
Gm

music with a very dense light
G

John: Yeah

Monica: O.K.
Gm
G
F#m

Spider: And remember about the smoke standing still and how they

they really get uptight when you try to move the smoke, right?
Abm

Monica: Right

John: Yeah?

Spider: I think the music in that dense light is probably what makes the smoke stand still. As soon as the pony's mane starts to get good in the back any sort of motion,
Gm

F#m

especially of smoke or gas, begins to make the ends split

G

Monica: Well don't the splitting ends change the density of the ponies' music so it affects
Gm

Gm
C

the density of the pigs' music, which makes the smoke move which up sets the pigs?

Spider: No, it isn't like that
G

John: Well, how does it work?

F#m

Spider: Well, what it does is when it strikes any sort of energy field or solid object or even something as ephemeral as smoke,

the first thing it does is be gins to inactivate the molecular motion so that it slows down and finally stops. That's why the smoke stops. And also have you ever noticed how the the smoke clouds shrink up? That's because the molecules come closer together. The cold light makes it get so small, this is really brittle smoke
G

John: And that's why the pigs don't want you
Am

to touch it
G

Spider: See, when the smoke gets that brittle what
Gm
G

happens when you try to move it is it disintegrates
Abm

John: And the pigs get uptight 'cause you know they,
G

they worship that smoke. They salute it every day
B

Monica: You know we've got something

here
Bbm
G

John: And, and, and, and that's the basis of all their nationalism. Like
Am
G

if they can't salute the smoke every morning when they get up . . .

Spider: Yeah, it's a vicious circle. You got it

  • 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.
