  • Verse 1
    (Each 
    year many 
    die 
    crossing 

    the 
    deserts, 

    Mountains 
    and rivers 

    of our southern 
    border 

    In search of 
    a bet
    ter life. 

    Here I follow 
    the 

    Journey 
    backwards, 
    from the body 
    at the 

    River 
    bottom, 

    to the 
    man walking 
    across 

    The desert towards 
    the banks 

    of the 
    Rio Grande.) 

    Verse 2
    For two 
    days 
    the river 

    keeps 
    you 
    down 

    Then 
    you 
    rise 
    to 
    the light 

    without 
    sound 

    Past 
    the playgrounds 
    and 

    empty 
    switching 
    yards 

    The 
    turtles 
    eat 
    the skin 
    from 
    your 
    eyes, 

    so 
    they 
    lay 
    open 
    to 
    the 
    stars 

    Verse 3

    Your clothes 
    give 
    way 
    to the 
    cur

    rent 
    and 
    river 
    stone 

    'Till 
    every 
    trace 
    of 
    who 

    you 
    ever 
    were 
    is 
    gone 

    And 
    the things 
    of 
    the 
    earth 

    they 
    make 
    their 
    claim 

    That 
    the thing
    of 
    heaven 

    may 
    do 
    the 
    same 

    Verse 4

    Goodbye, 
    my 
    darling, 

    for 
    your 
    love 
    give 
    God 
    thanks,

    Meet

    Verse 5

    Over 
    rivers 
    of 
    stone 
    and 
    ancient 
    ocean 
    beds 

    walk 
    on 
    sandals 
    of twine 

    and 
    tire 
    tread 

    My 
    pockets 
    full 
    of 
    dust, 

    my 
    mouth 
    filled 
    with cool 
    stone 

    The 
    pale 
    moon 
    opens 

    the 
    earth 
    to 
    its 
    bones 

    long, 
    my 
    darling, 
    for 
    your 
    kiss, 

    for 
    your sweet 
    love

    thanks 

    The touch 
    of 
    your 
    loving 
    finger
    tips 

    Meet

    • 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.
