    Verse 1
    Crimson 
    flames 
    tied 
    through 
    my 
    ears, 

    rollin' 
    high 
    and 
    mighty 
    traps 

    Pounced 
    with 
    fire 
    on 
    flaming 
    roads 

    using 
    ideas 
    as 
    my 
    maps 

    "We'll 
    meet 
    on 
    edges, 
    soon," 
    said 
    I, 

    proud 
    'neath 
    heated 
    brow 

    Ah, 
    but 
    was 
    so 
    much 
    older

    Verse 2
    Half-wracked 
    prejudice 
    leaped 
    forth 

    "Rip 
    down 
    all 
    hate," 
    screamed 

    Lies 
    that 
    life 
    is 
    black 
    and 
    white 

    spoke 
    from 
    my 
    skull, 
    dreamed 

    Ro
    mantic 
    facts 
    of 
    musketeers 

    foun
    dationed 
    deep, 
    some- 
    how

    Girls' 
    faces 
    formed 
    the

    jealou
    sy 

    To 
    memo
    rizing 
    politics 

    of 
    ancient 
    histo
    ry 

    Flung 
    down 
    by 
    corpse 
    e
    vangelists, 

    un
    tought 
    of, 
    though, 
    some
    how 

    Ah, 
    but 
    was

    much 
    older 
    then 

    I'm

    self- 
    or
    dained 
    pro
    fessor's 
    tongue 

    too 
    seri
    ous 
    to 
    fool 

    Spouted 
    out 
    that 
    liberty 

    is 
    just 
    equality 
    in 
    school 

    "E
    quality" 
    spoke 
    the 
    word 

    as 
    if 
    wedding 
    vow

    Verse 5
    In 
    soldier's 
    stance, 
    aimed 
    my 
    hand 

    at 
    the 
    mongrel 
    dogs 
    who 
    teach 

    Fearing 
    not 
    that 
    I'd 
    become 
    my 
    enemy 

    in 
    the 
    instant 
    that 
    preach 

    My 
    ex
    istence 
    led 
    by 
    confusion 
    boats, 

    mutiny 
    from 
    stern 
    to 
    bow 

    Ah,

    that 
    now 

    Verse 6
    Yes, 
    my 
    guard 
    stood 
    hard 

    when 
    abstract 
    threats 

    Too

    • 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.
