    • Verse 1
    The 
    blue 
    house 
    at 
    the corner 

    of Twilight 
    and 
    State 

    Four 
    storeys, 
    soaring 
    turrets, 

    floors 
    of 
    wood 
    par
    quet 

    And 
    owls, 
    so 
    many 
    owls, 
    snowy, 

    horned 
    and 
    screech 

    Thousands 
    of 
    owls, 

    all 
    flapping 
    their 
    wings 

    How 
    I love 
    the 
    marble 
    staircase, 

    the 
    claw- 
    footed 
    tubs 

    The 
    room 
    of 
    rare 
    orchids, 

    the 
    glass 
    hall 
    for 
    my 
    guns 

    Statues 
    of 
    pharaohs, 
    twenty 
    feet 
    tall, 

    crystal 
    chandeliers, 
    rare 
    paint
    ings 
    of 
    clowns 

    But 
    the 
    owls, 
    so 
    many 
    owls, 

    I'm 
    never 
    alone 

    The 
    owls 
    make 
    this 
    blue 
    house 

    a 
    home 


    How 
    peaceful 
    it 
    is 
    to 

    watch 
    them 
    soar 

    Through 
    the 
    palm- 
    tree 
    ballroom 

    with its 
    gold- 
    paneled 
    doors 

    And 
    as I 
    sit 
    by 
    the 
    fire 

    and slip 
    off 
    my 
    boots 

    They 
    perch 
    on 
    harpoons 
    and the 

    stuffed 
    heads 
    of 
    moose 

    Verse 2
    The 
    apo
    thecary 
    closet 

    is 
    lined 
    with shelves 

    But 
    deeper 
    than 
    expected 

    and slanted 
    as 
    well 

    How 
    long 
    have 
    I 
    been 
    here 

    searching 
    for 
    my 
    pills 

    As 
    the ceiling 
    grows 
    upward 
    and the 

    walls 
    start 
    to 
    swell? 

    Verse 3
    Oh, the 
    owls, 
    the 
    owls, 

    with 
    their 
    feathers 
    of 
    silk 

    The 
    owls 
    they 
    mock 
    me 
    and have 

    Interlude 1
    stolen 
    my 
    pills 



    Verse 4
    Oh the 
    owls, 
    the 
    owls, 

    with their 
    shining 
    green 
    eyes 

    The 
    owls 
    will 
    save 
    me, 

    if 
    not 
    today 
    then 
    to
    night

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
