    Verse 1

    We 
    are 
    like 
    children 

    We; re 
    painted 
    on 
    canvases 

    Picking 
    up 
    shades 
    as 
    we 
    go 

    We start 
    off 
    with 
    gesso 

    Brushed 
    on 
    by 
    people 
    we know 

    Watch 
    your 
    step 
    as 
    you 
    go 

    Step 
    back 
    and 
    ad
    mire 
    my 
    view 

    Can 
    you use 
    the 
    colors 
    choose? 

    Do 
    I have 
    some 
    say 
    what 
    you 
    use? 

    Do 
    I have 
    some 
    Verse 2
    greens 
    and 

    some 
    blues? 

    We're 
    made 
    by 
    the 
    pigment 

    of 
    paint 
    that 
    is 
    put 
    upon 

    Our 
    stories 
    are told 
    by our 
    hues 

    Like Motley 
    and 
    Bearden 

    These masters 
    of 
    peace 
    and 
    life 

    Layers 
    of 
    color 

















    and 

    time 

    Step 
    back 
    and 
    ad
    mire 
    my 

    view 

    Can 
    I use 
    the 
    col
    or

    I choose? 

    Don't 
    have 
    some 
    say 
    what 
    you 
    use? 

    Can 
    get 
    some 
    greens 
    with my 
    blues?

    • 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.
