    • Verse 1
    Ol' 
    mother 

    earth 

    They 
    have 
    made 
    so 
    many 

    scars 
    upon 
    your 
    face 

    And 
    the beauty 
    you 
    once 
    had 

    can 
    never 
    be 
    replaced 

    Long 
    for 
    wild 
    earth 

    You 
    were 
    pounted by 
    the meters 

    from 
    the sky 

    But 
    you 
    did 
    no 
    die 

    Verse 2
    And 
    now 
    the 
    ones 
    that 
    you 
    have 
    loved 

    Are 
    taking 
    you 
    for 
    gran
    ted 

    Here 
    they're so 
    inchanted 

    By 
    the progress 
    they 
    can 
    make 

    They never 
    stop 
    to 
    think 

    Just 
    how 
    much 
    that 
    you 
    can 
    take 

    Verse 3
    Mother 
    earth 

    Take 
    us 
    back 
    to 
    when 
    the proud 

    ones 
    lived 

    They 
    only 
    took 
    what 
    you 
    would give 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 4
    Mother 
    earth 

    To
    night 
    before 
    I 
    lay 
    my 
    body 
    down 

    I'll 
    pray 
    to 
    the 
    Lord 
    that 

    a way 
    can 
    be 
    found 

    And 
    if 
    bad 
    goes 
    to works 

    The Lord 
    help 
    me 
    try 
    to 
    do 
    my 
    best 

    Until 
    once 
    again, 
    mother 
    earth 

    You 
    hold 
    me 
    to 
    your 
    breast

    • 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.”
