    • Verse 1
    A 
    child 
    ran 
    through 

    the mead
    ow 
    on a 
    sun 
    drenched 
    summer 
    day 

    And then 
    he stopped 
    his play 

    And 
    kneeled 
    in a 
    field 
    of 
    poppies. 

    Verse 2
    A man 
    walked 
    through 
    my ghetto 

    on 
    a 
    humid 
    summer 
    day 

    And then he 
    stopped 
    to 
    pay 
    and 
    he 

    dealed in a field 
    of poppies. 

    Verse 3
    Oh, 
    flower 
    of 
    forgetfulness, 

    just 
    an hour 
    away 
    to the 
    moon 

    Take 
    a deep 
    breath 
    if 
    you 

    are reaching 
    for 
    truth 

    While you're 
    in the 
    stupor 

    The 
    door 
    knock
    s 
    and 
    death 

    Interlude 1
    takes 
    another 
    youth. 


    Verse 4
    Poppies, 
    red 
    poppies..., 

    red 
    poppies...

    A boy 
    I 
    used 
    to 
    know, 
    Verse 5
    a 
    boy 
    I 
    used 
    to 
    know 

    who's 
    laughter 
    rang 
    to 
    the 
    skies 

    Was 
    a joy 
    to 
    be
    hold

    Then 
    I 
    looked 
    into 
    his 
    eyes, 
    a look 
    so 
    cold, 

    a 
    boy 
    who 
    (rose on 
    (? ? ? sorry)) 

    In a 
    field 
    of 
    poppies

    Red 
    poppies...., 
    red

      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.
