    Verse 1
    Collecting 
    pieces

    an

    case 

    This 
    one 
    has 
    a skull 
    but 

    it 
    don't 
    have 
    a face 

    These 
    look 
    like 
    the 
    arms 

    of father 
    so 
    strong 

    And 
    the 
    ring 
    on 
    this 
    fin
    ger 
    means 
    my Grandma 
    is 

    gone 

    Verse 2

    Here's 
    some 
    legs 
    in 
    a cloud 
    where 

    my sis

    once 
    played 

    Here's 
    some 
    mud 
    made 
    of 
    blood 

    and 
    these 
    teeth 
    are 
    decayed 

    The 
    ear 
    of 
    my brother

    The 
    hand 
    of 
    a friend 

    And 
    just 
    can't 
    put 
    them 

    back 
    to
    gether 
    again 

    Verse 3
    Pick 
    up 
    the

    on fire 

    Follow 
    the smoke 
    going 

    higher 
    and 
    higher 

    Pick 
    up 
    the 
    bones 
    and 

    wish 
    them

    Pray 
    'em 
    a prayer 
    and 
    turn 
    out 
    the light 

    Verse 4


    There 
    are stains 
    on 
    the floor 
    where 

    kit
    chen 
    once stood 

    There 
    are 
    ribs 
    on 
    the fire 
    place 

    mixed 
    with 
    the wood 

    There 
    are forces 
    in 
    the 
    air, 

    ghosts 
    in 
    the wind 

    Some 
    bullets 
    in 
    the 
    back 
    and 

    some scars 
    on 
    the skin 

    Verse 5
    There 
    were demons 
    with 
    gun
    who 

    marched 
    through 
    this 
    place 

    Killing 
    everything 
    that 
    breathed, 

    they're 
    an 
    inhuman 
    race 

    There 
    are 
    holes 
    in 
    the wall
    s, 

    bloody 
    hair 
    on 
    the brick

    And 
    the smell 
    of 
    this 
    hell 
    is 

    making 
    me sick

    Verse 6
    Pick 
    up 
    the 
    bones 
    and set 
    them 
    on 
    fire 

    Fol
    low 
    the smoke 
    going 

    higher 
    and 
    higher

    Pick 
    up 
    the 
    bones 
    and 

    wish 
    them 
    goodnight 

    Pray 
    'em 
    prayer 
    and 
    turn 
    out 
    the light 

    Interlude 1





    Verse 7
    Pick 
    up 
    the 
    bones 
    and set 
    them 
    on 
    fire 

    Follow 
    the scope 
    going 
    higher 

    and 
    higher

    Pick 
    up 
    the 
    bones 
    and 

    wish 
    them 
    goodnight 

    Pray 
    'em 
    prayer 
    and 
    turn 
    out 

    the light 

    Verse 8

    Now maybe 
    someday 

    the suns 
    gonna 
    shine 

    Flowers 
    will 
    bloom 
    and 
    all 
    will 
    be fine 

    But 
    nothing'll 
    grow 
    on 
    this 

    burnt 
    cursed 
    ground 

    'Cause 
    the breathe 
    of the 

    death 
    is 
    the 
    only 
    sound

    • 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.
