    Verse 1
    The 
    angels 
    are 
    lost 
    in 
    the 
    city 
    of 
    stars 

    Wise 
    men are 
    down 
    on 
    their 
    knees 

    And 
    the 
    Fruitman of Freeway 

    will sell 
    you 
    his 
    cars 

    When he's 
    sure 
    that 
    you can't 

    find 
    the 
    keys 

    And the 
    ladies 
    on 
    Magdalene 
    Lane 

    All 
    worship 
    the sun 
    and 
    the sand 

    And the 
    migrants 
    who 
    come 

    can't 
    com
    plain 

    For 
    this 
    is 
    their 
    promised 
    land 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 2
    MGM studios 
    can't 
    make 
    the nut 

    They're 
    auctioning 
    Dorothy's 
    shoes 

    Gable 
    is gone, 
    the 
    good 
    witch 
    is 
    a slut 

    And 
    I've 
    got 
    the 
    parking-lot 
    blues 

    blues 

    The wizard 
    brought 
    benzedrine 
    smiles 

    And 
    he 
    never 
    let 
    Dorothy 
    doze 

    Ha- 
    she 
    died 
    as she 
    walked 
    down 
    the aisle 

    And 
    all 
    that 
    re
    mains 
    is 
    her 
    clothes 

    Over 
    the rainbow 
    Verse 3
    a Kansas 
    tor
    nado 

    Can 
    twist 
    up 
    a little 
    girl's 
    head 

    Aunt 
    Em's 
    on 
    re
    lief 
    and 

    the tin 
    man's 
    thief 

    And 
    even 
    the wiz
    ard 
    can't 
    wake 

    the 
    dead 

    Interlude 2

    Verse 4
    The 
    prophet 
    has 
    come 
    to 

    the kingdom 
    of 
    lights 

    But 
    there's 
    no 
    one 
    to listen 
    or 
    learn 

    And 
    the saviour 
    performs 
    for 

    the 
    prophet's 
    delight 

    While 
    dissenters 
    are 
    banished 
    or burned 

    And 
    the 
    heretics 
    beg 
    to 
    be 
    heard 

    But the 
    sa
    viour's 
    on 
    tour 
    for 
    the 
    week 

    Sal
    vation 
    is 
    found 
    in 
    his 
    word 

    If 
    only 
    he'd learn 
    how 
    to speak

    Verse 5
    And 
    Lincoln 
    is 
    laughing 

    with Amos 
    and Andy 

    Con
    cerning 
    the great 
    Civil 
    War 

    And 
    Paul 
    Revere 
    sleeps 
    with 

    the worst-look
    ing 
    creeps 

    creep

    While 
    revolution's 
    knocking 
    at 
    his 

    Interlude 3
    door 


    Verse 6
    Magdalene 
    Lane 
    is 
    the red-light 
    domain 

    do
    main 

    Where 
    everyone's 
    soul 
    is 
    for 
    sale 

    A piece 
    of 
    your 
    heart 
    will 
    do 
    for 
    a start 

    You can 
    send 
    us 
    the rest 
    in 
    the 
    mail 

    For 
    we have 
    our 
    own 
    fam
    ilies 
    to 
    feed 

    And we 
    can't 
    let 
    them 
    starve 
    just 
    for you 

    But 
    we'd 
    rather 
    not 
    watch 
    while 
    you 
    bleed 

    So 
    come 
    back 
    in 
    an hour 

    when 
    you're 
    through 

    Verse 7
    It's 
    just 
    another 
    city 
    full 
    of sor
    row 

    Makes 
    no 
    differ

    • 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.
