    Tell 
    me 
    Verse 1
    what's 
    gone 
    wrong. 

    tilt 
    my 
    head 
    there, 
    under 
    the faucet, 

    but when 
    I turn 
    it 
    on 
    -- dry 
    as 
    pa
    per. 

    Call 
    the neigh
    bors. 

    Who's 
    to blame 
    for 
    what's 
    going 
    on? 

    In 
    the dark 
    without 
    a clue 
    I'm 

    just 
    the same 
    as 
    you. 

    Verse 2
    O, 
    they 
    tell 
    us 
    there's 

    poison 
    in 
    the 
    well, 

    that 
    someone's 
    been 
    a bit 
    untidy 

    and 
    there's 
    been 
    small 
    spill. 

    Not 
    a lot, 
    no, 

    just 
    a drop. 

    But there 
    you 
    are 
    mis
    taken, 

    you 
    know 
    you 
    are. 

    won
    der 
    just 
    how 
    long 
    they 
    knew 
    our 
    well 
    was 

    poisoned 
    but 
    they 
    let 
    us 
    just 
    drink 
    on. 

    Verse 3
    O, 
    they 
    tell 
    us 
    there's 
    poison 
    in 
    the 
    well, 

    that 
    someone's 
    been 
    a bit 
    untidy 

    and 
    there's 
    been 
    small 
    spill. 

    All 
    that 
    it 
    amounts 
    to 
    is 

    a tear 
    in 
    a salted 
    sea. 

    Someone's 
    been 
    a bit 
    untidy, 

    they'll 
    have 
    it 
    cleaned 
    up 
    in 
    week. 

    But 
    the week 
    is 
    over 
    and 
    now 
    it's 
    grown 
    into 
    years 
    since 
    was 
    told 
    that 
    should 
    be 
    calm, 

    there's 
    nothing 
    to 
    fear 
    here. 

    But 
    drank 
    that 
    water 
    for 
    years, 

    my 
    wife 
    an
    my 
    children. 

    Verse 4
    Tell 
    me, 
    where 
    to 
    now, 
    if 
    your 
    fight 
    for 
    a bearable 

    life 
    can 
    be 
    fought 
    and 
    lost 
    in 
    you 
    backyard? 

    Verse 5
    O, 
    don't 
    tell 
    us 
    there's 

    poison 
    in 
    the well, 

    that 
    someone's 
    been 
    a bit 
    untidy, 

    that 
    there's 
    been 
    small 
    spill. 

    All 
    that 
    it 
    amounts 
    to 
    is 

    a tear 
    in 
    a salted 
    sea. 

    Someone's 
    been 
    a bit 
    untidy, 

    they'll 
    have 
    it 
    cleaned 
    up 
    in 
    week.

    • 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.
