G

These are the days of the open hand
G

They will not be the last

Look around now
Cm

These are the days
G

of the beggars and the choosers
G

This is the year of the hungry man
G

Whose place is in the past
Cm

Hand in hand with ignorance
Am

And legitimate excus es
Pre-chorus 1
E

The rich declare themselves poor
Am

And most of us are not sure

If we have too much
D

But we'll take our chances
D
Am

'Cause God's stopped keeping score
E

I guess somewhere along the way
Am

He must have let us all out to play
D

Turned his back and all God's children
D
G

Crept out the back door
Chorus 1
G

And it's hard to love,

there's so much to hate
G

Hanging on to hope
Cm
G

When there is no hope to speak of
G

And the wounded skies above
G

say it's much, much too late

Well, maybe we should all be praying for time

G

Oh, you hold on to what you can

And charity is a coat you wear twice a year

This is the year of the guilty man
G

Your television takes a stand
Cm

And you find that what was over there

is over here
Am

So you scream

from behind your door

Say, "What's mine is mine and not yours"

I may have too much
D

but I'll take my chances
D
Am

'Cause God's stopped keeping score

And you cling to the things they sold you

Did you cover your eyes when they told you

That he can't come back
D

'Cause he has no children
D
G

to come back for

there's so much to hate

  • 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.
