    Verse 1
    Jane 

    it sure looks 
    like 
    rain 

    These 
    Canadian 
    plains 

    And their 
    windblown 
    hair 

    Jane 
    the bruise 
    colored 
    clouds 

    The smell 
    of the 
    ground 

    In 
    the 
    ripening 
    air 

    Verse 2
    I have 
    seen 
    you 

    In 
    your 
    fluttering 
    dress 

    And your 
    dry 
    face 
    of steel 

    As 
    you're dragging 
    your 

    red 
    rowing 
    boat 

    Cross 
    the forever 
    fields 

    Verse 3

    See 
    Jane 
    something's 
    gone 
    dead 

    Inside 
    my 
    head 

    There's 
    nothing 
    but 
    fear 

    Jane 
    the 
    rivers 
    of 
    grief 

    The 
    tears 
    of 
    re
    lief 

    Seem 
    ages 
    from 
    here 

    Verse 4
    Sometimes 
    the 
    beauty 
    of 
    life 

    Hits like 
    lightening 
    washing 
    everything 

    Clear 

    And these 
    dimmers of 
    doubt 
    flicker 

    Fade 
    out 
    and 
    dis
    appear 

    Verse 5
    But 
    Jane 
    that 
    is 
    a 
    luxury 

    There 
    are 
    those 
    of little 

    faith 
    it 
    seems 

    And they 
    beg 
    for 
    truth 
    like 
    char
    ity 

    And I 
    see 
    them on 
    every 
    street 
    corner 

    Verse 6
    They 
    are 
    holding 
    out 
    one 
    righteous 
    hand 

    While 
    the 
    other 
    lead

    s the 
    marching 
    band 

    In the 
    shadow 
    hymn 
    of 
    the 
    scratchman 

    Heed 
    the 
    message, 

    kill 
    the 
    mes
    sen
    ger 


    Verse 7
    Jane 
    I heard 
    you found 
    love 

    Wriggling 
    up 
    from the 
    mud 

    On the shores 
    of Granville 

    But 
    Jane 
    in the 
    wink 
    of 
    an eye

    The 
    naysayers fly 

    Like 
    hounds 
    at 
    your 
    heels 

    Verse 8
    Jane 
    they'll 
    whisper 
    your 
    name 

    And 
    you won't 
    feel 
    the chains 

    And 
    you won't 
    see 
    the moss 

    Oh, 
    Jane 
    there's 
    an art 
    to the 
    game 

    The 
    aesthetics 
    of 
    love 

    The athletic
    s of 
    loss 

    Verse 9
    Sometimes 
    someone 
    drifts 
    by 

    And 
    our nets 
    get 
    entwined 
    in 
    the 
    sea 

    And 
    in 
    time 
    I might 
    find 

    They still 
    mean 
    something 
    to me 

    Verse 10

    But 
    Jane 
    that 
    is 
    a 
    lux
    ury 

    There 
    are 
    those 
    of 
    little 
    faith 
    in me 

    And they 
    pull 
    me 
    down 
    like 
    grav
    ity 

    And I 
    see 
    them 
    on 
    every 
    street 
    corner 

    Verse 11
    They 
    are 
    masters 
    in the 
    sleight 
    of hand 

    They 
    are 
    dancer
    s 
    and they 
    step 
    so 
    grand 

    To 
    the 
    shibboleth 
    of 
    Shadow
    land 

    Heed 
    the 
    message, 
    kill 

    the 

    mes
    senger

      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

      "

      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.
