Verse 1
D

I was drunk at the pulpit,

I knew it was wrong

And I left in mid- sermon tempted

by a bar- house song

The pews creaked and shifted as

they turned to watch me leave

And I pulled a little bottle from
Verse 2

the pocket in my sleeve
D


The sunlight was stronger to my

church- dark widened eyes

Than the light which had blinded me

with Christ's own half- lies

Yes mid- Sunday morning,

my old playmates sat

Round a stumble stained table,

Christopher spat

And he kicked out a chair

and showed me to sit

Then they started back singing

in that shit- smelling pit

They were grinning and dribbling

with comforted heads

Their wives were in church

or at home and in beds

Well I sucked down a cupful

and God shone within

In a red earthen mask,
Verse 3

and I saw where I'd been was a palace of sin.
D


Let them abstain on

unbucking high horses

Poor wooden structures which

merely eye courses

That these log heads run

just to find some respite

In the whiskey- induced

holy unending night

Yes I thought I saw new light,

the black one which dimmed

The bleach garments with which

mingled pee on stained rims

Oh the church songs they paled

next to this fiery chorus

Composed from a living

depth especially for us
Verse 4
D

There were arms linked in sympathy,

gilded the glaring

Of these bloated companions,

who hid 'neath their swearing

Some need for another,

kin to brother lust,

Which coarse words and music,

was faith and less trust

Yes I saw a dependence,

an inherent weakness

Within walls which hid sunlight

and hindered all frankness

That floor there supported

what souls couldn't stand

On their own in their own eyes,

to hint they are men

Who are slave to their

vision but to that alone

Yes each of them cloistered

fear of being alone

Wherever folks gather, to imply a rule,

They are each one a sinner, each one a fool

For if I drink my whiskey, and if I sing a song

I have no breast companion,

a- trailing along

To imagine a sharing of

burdens I earned

To steal from the embers

i strove so to burn

God is one's corpus,

and Jesus one's blood

The world is within you, without is of mud...

  • 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.
