    Verse 1
    The big 

    wheel 
    keeps 
    on 
    turn
    in' 

    On 
    a simple 
    line 
    day 
    by 
    day 

    The 
    earth 
    spins 
    on 
    its 
    axis 

    One 
    man 
    struggles 
    while 
    another 
    relaxes 



    There's 
    a hole 
    in my 
    soul 
    like 
    a cavity 

    Seems 
    like 
    the world 
    is 
    out 

    together 
    just 
    by 
    gravity 

    The 
    wheel 
    keeps 
    turning, 

    the 
    sky 
    is 
    rearranging 

    Look 
    my son 
    the weather 
    is changing 

    I'd like 
    to feel 
    that 
    you 
    could 
    be 
    free 

    Look 
    up at the 
    blue 
    skies 

    beneath 
    a 
    new 
    tree 

    Sometime 
    again 
    you'll 
    turn 
    green 

    and the 
    sea 
    turns 
    red 

    My son 
    I said 
    the 
    power 
    of 

    axis 
    over 
    my 
    head 

    The 
    big 
    wheel 
    keeps 
    on 
    turning 

    On a 
    simple 
    line 
    day 
    by 
    day 

    The 
    earth 
    spins 
    on 
    its axis 

    One 
    man 
    struggles 

    while another 
    re
    laxes 

    We 
    sang 
    about 
    the sun 

    and 
    danced 
    among 
    the trees 

    And 
    we 
    listened 
    to 
    the whisper 

    of 
    the city 
    on 
    the breeze 

    Will 
    you 
    cry 
    anymore 
    in a 
    lead- 
    free 
    zone 

    Down 
    within 
    the shadows 

    where 
    the factories 
    drone 

    On 
    the sur
    face 
    of 
    the wheel 

    they 
    build 
    another 
    town 

    And 
    so 
    the 
    green 
    come 
    tumbling 
    down 

    Yes, 
    close 
    your 
    eyes 
    and 
    hold 
    me 
    tight 

    And 
    I'll 
    show 
    you 
    a sunset 

    sometime 
    again 

    The 
    big 
    wheel 
    keeps 
    on 
    turning 

    On a 
    simple 
    line 
    day 
    by 
    day 

    The 
    earth 
    spins 
    on 
    its axis 

    One 
    man 
    struggles 
    while 

    another 
    re
    laxes 


    As 
    a 
    child's 
    silent 
    prayer, 

    my 
    hope 
    hides 
    in 
    disguise 

    While satellites 
    and 
    cameras 

    watch 
    from the 
    skies 

    An acid 
    drop 
    of rain 
    recycled from 
    the sea 

    It 
    washed 
    away 
    my 
    shadow, 

    burnt 
    a 
    hole 
    in 
    me 

    And 
    all 
    the king's 
    men 
    cannot 

    put 
    it back 
    again 

    But the 
    ghetto 
    sun 
    where 
    nature 
    lies 

    Will 
    mend 
    my 
    soul 

    Sometime 
    again 

    The 
    big 
    wheel 
    keeps 
    on 
    turning 

    On a 
    simple 
    line 
    day 
    by 
    day 

    The 
    earth 
    spins 
    on 
    its axis 

    One 
    man 
    struggles 
    while 
    another 
    re
    laxes 

    My 
    son 
    I 
    said 
    the 
    big 
    wheel 

    keeps 
    on 
    turn
    ing 

    On a 
    simple 
    line 
    day 
    by 
    day 

    The 
    earth 
    spins 
    on 
    its 
    axis 

    One 
    man 
    struggles 
    while 

    another 
    re
    laxes 

    Big 
    wheel 

    On 
    a simple 
    line 

    The 
    earth 
    spins

      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 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.
