Intro 1
D


Verse 1
D

There are those among us
Bm

willing to get by on anything
A

Hollow hope of what is coming,
D

a lifetime dangled by a string

But this ocean dives so deeply
Bm

and this river runs so wide
A

I won't be counted one among
D

them until my soul is satisfied

Brick and brick of buried hunger
A

keeping all desire dark
G
A

And then we are like lions,
D

we are tearing it apart

There are those among us lying,
A

saying nothing is for free
G
A

And then we are like lions,
D

we will not leave until we eat
Verse 2
D

Playing kings and playing peasants,
Bm

do we get what we are owed?
A

An eagle comes and talks of failure,
D

a rabbit offers up its throat

Will they buy even our breathing,
Bm

a river strangled by a damn?
A

Less than one percent are taking
D

so tell me who dries up this land

Is it worse to see no future?
A

Is it worse to be afraid?
G
A

And then we are like lions,
D

pumping fire in our veins

We are born in perfect hunger,
A

we are born with perfect need
G
A

And then we are like lions,
D

we are baring all our teeth
Bm
A
Verse 3
D


It is coming down the mountain,
Bm

fear that holds you like the cold
A

It wants to settle in your footprints,
D

keep you still from where you're going

All you think you know of losing,
Bm

all you doubt of innocence
A

That big sky still hangs above you,
D

every day just want to quit

There's no light you see to guide
A

you and it scares you just to say
G
A

And then we are like lions,
D

nothing dares get in our way

See your faithless sails drifting
A

and your truth just cut apart
G
A

And then we are like lions,
D

we are golden in our hearts
Verse 4
G
A

And then we are like lions,
D

we are standing on two feet
G
A

Hang it on the kitchen
D

wall for everyone to see
G
A
D
G

Get out your banjo so we can sing
D
There are winds
Verse 5

that wrap and hold me,
Bm

there are whispers in the trees
D

I cannot hold all that is sacred,

they are holding onto me

Kiss the years that all are dying,
Bm

kiss the face that makes you stay
A

They are in your rhythms walking,
D

they are showing you the way

Breath and breath above a sickness
A

shouting threats upon your life
G
A

And then we are like lions,
F#m
D

we are fool enough to fight

It will cheat you in the balance,
A
G
A
D

taking more than left to live
G
A

And then we are like lions,
D

we are strong enough to give

  • 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.
