    Their 
    bones 
    break 

    where 
    their 
    hearts 
    can
    not 

    The 
    heads 
    are go
    ing 
    to 
    roll 

    until 
    I want 
    them to 
    stop 

    I'll 
    be there 
    with bell
    s on, 

    Just 
    name

    state- 

    It'll 
    have 
    to 
    be 
    un
    der
    ground, 


    Under

    because, 

    God 
    ain't up 
    this 
    late 

    God 
    ain't 
    up 
    this 
    late 


    Bones 
    are 
    break
    ing 
    'cause 
    they're 
    weary 
    and 
    they're aching, 


    The

    blade's 
    fall
    ing, 

    until 
    it's dull 
    or 
    breaking 

    I'll 
    be 
    there for 
    you, 

    but can we set 
    us 
    a date- 

    I 
    swear I love 
    you, 

    I swear 
    by Christ, 

    And it's 
    your 
    father 

    that I 
    hate 

    Lying 
    to 
    you never 
    gets 
    to me, 


    'Cause 
    getting 
    caught 
    is 
    what 
    keeps 

    me so

    back 

    Is this

    how you 
    like 

    to fuck? 

    Face

    Face 
    down, 
    ass 
    up? 

    Face 
    down, 

    Is 
    this 
    really 
    how you like 
    to 
    fuck? 


    I 
    might be 
    the 
    king 
    of 
    the 
    delta 
    blues

      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 🙂

      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.
