    children 
    raised 
    in

    barren 
    plain 

    There are 
    children 
    raised 
    be

    neath 
    golden 
    sun 

    There are 
    children 
    of 
    the

    Children 
    of 
    the sand 

    And they cry 
    out

    raised 
    as 
    one

    I want 
    to live 
    want to grow

    Verse 3

    Have 
    you gazed 
    out 
    on 
    the ocean 

    Seen the 
    breaching 
    of 

    a whale? 

    Have you watched 
    the dolphins 

    frolic 
    in 
    the foam? 

    Have 
    you heard 
    the song 
    the 
    humpback 

    hears 
    five 
    hundred 
    miles 
    away 

    Telling 
    tales 
    of ancient

    of 
    passages 
    and 
    home?

    We are standing

    No more 
    hun

    • 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.
